Cool. Am I the only one slightly bothered by one line of Doomsday's article leeching onto the third page? Otherwise, nice to read, though the content was kind of more informative than it needed to be. Also, walls of text and whatnot. But good job overall!

I liked the read from peppy
Actually, there was some thread about discussing of Taiko achievements.Tatsuo and peppy's interview wrote:
Here's a question from a Taiko player. "There are achievements for osu! standard, and for Catch the Beat, but why haven't there been Taiko achievements added yet?"
Because no-one has created them yet. I would suggest a feature request topic. Including artwork for the achievements would speed things up, too.
Graphic assets don't just fall from the sky, unfortunately. Also, when the development team is so small, some aspects of the game regularly get overlooked.
But if there needs artwork... I would invite some people for artworks ;_;
Also, I hope that Taiko achievements would be successfully discussed on somewhere ;_;
Indeed good job, it is impressive, though it does feel like it's lacking writers for more content/articles.
it's nice to have the osu! Newsletter back.
there isn't any news regarding taiko world cup ? even though there an article on owc
regardless of that still a nice good job ion this :3
Edit: about the interview, it'll be nice if you can include interviewee photo or brief profile of them (or maybe both) that will make the newsletter more interesting imo

this. for the next issue with the interview with ztrot, people who aren't really active in the community might not know who ztrot is. not that anybody wouldn't cause he's that awesome, but just sayingSallad4ever wrote:

Thanks for the feedback everyone (both good and bad). Now time to answer some questions
This is a google docs issue, it'll display correctly on most computers (depending on resolution) but for others there will be an issue.akrolsmir wrote:

Good reading material, especially the interview with peppy.
Nice job. Definitely needs more content but it's improving on an exponential curve.

You can't make a curve with two points of data.
Awesome job and it was really interesting to read
But I really think it's too short and lacks more content.
But 'twas aight.

More interviews \:D/ The one with peppy was great to read~
Having interviews with players etc. would be nice too \:D/
@Doomsday, you're a mouse + keyboard player, not just mouse player D:

It was one of the first original Storyboard creations within osu!, so at that time, it was pretty awesome, haha.
Great job!

nice read. Maybe in the next issue can we get interview with some popular beatmappers?
Great read. Everyone can now shut the flying <censored> up about mouse and tablets and which is better.
Now we need someone to tell everyone CTB isn't as easy as it looks.

Love Doomsday's interview on Mouse vs. Tablet, that was what most of us tablet users wanted to say I think :3
Great job everyone~!

tablet IS better for control when you get very experienced with it
No, I think that pen and tablet is easier to get good at, not necessarily "better", though you could argue that "better" is whatever is more efficient. There are plenty of excellent one handers out there as well, but it's so much easier to use 2 hands, so there are more 2 handers out there (in every game, not just osu). If you're already good, it doesn't matter much what you use, which is the case for doomsday. Same is the case for switching from mouse acceleration on vs off. In fact, if osu were played differently, with few jumps and more streams, mouse acceleration actually helps significantly.aevv wrote:

If tablet weren't significantly easier, why on earth would anyone buy/use a tablet just for osu, then continue using it after they somehow decide it's not easier or better than a mouse? Mice are useful in almost every application, while tablets are not.
Same with switches vs scissor vs buckling spring vs rubber dome keyboards.
It's like saying mouse is better for control when you get very experienced with it.aevv wrote:

Really, is there really a right or wrong way for playing osu!?
And here we go... *facepalm*

This is great i loved the one about mouse vs tablet since i am a mouse user and i was thinking about buying a tablet since everyone told me it was easier GREAT JOB
I can say this. I wanted to make money for a tablet to draw (Yes, I'm a furry artist). But I wanted to use it for this game here too.
I think a mouse could be a little fun exercise for your hand, just like DDR, Drum Mania, and Guitar Hero (this one discontinued...). And I also start using the keyboard of Hard and Insane mode last month. That's a fun exercise too.
Sorry to saying this but on my opinion, mouse could be a little exercise than a tablet (you could use this to draw though and I still want a tablet...).

Awesome newsletter. I know you told me to read it a while ago jjrocks, I kinda forgot. But it was well done, are you guys planning to do another one soon? I would love to help with minor things since I'm not a big part of the community at all, but I proofread well, and I can help write some if you need it. Anyway, great article on the tournament, I enjoyed that one the most. I would love to support the newsletter, let me know what's up! (I just found the thread, I may have missed some updates)
Edit: lol, I should've read more. Bi-monthly, got it, and it seems this was just released. So I'm guessing you're putting stuff together for the next one eh?

We are working hard to make a June Edition.
Because I don't check this forum, I forgot about this thread. I saw Vext's college class thread and I remembered, so I read your post now. My apologies, but I'll get right on it.
Why did you bump this, really?
