One difficulty down, one to go!

"Critical infection difficulty fixing"

Despite being my first beatmap to mod, i will do my best.

Here are some of the mistakes i managed to find.




02:13:39 (2) - 02:13:76 (3) - 02:14:12 (4) - 02:17:79 (9) - 02:18:16 (10) - 02:19:81 (4) - 02:20:00 (5) - 02:21:01 (4) - 02:21:46 (5) - 02:21:65 (6) - 03:02:20 (12) - 03:08:07 (2) - 03:16:23 (1) - 03:32:11 (2) - 03:32:84 (3) - 03:37:43 (1) - 03:38:16 (1) -

All of the previous are 1/4 earlier, they should be moved to the white ticks.

01:40:45 (1) - this one is ahead by 1/4. shorten it to be on the red tick.

Jumps are ok, Did not find problems with the spacing.

Looks really nice. Keep up the good work =)

[Clean System]
00:15:50 (1) - Sounds better 1/4 shorter.

[Critical Infection!]
00:57:15 (11) - A tad close to (10).
02:12:93 (13) - Move closer to (12).
02:50:55 (5) - Too close to (4,6). Make it line up vertically with (2,8).
03:02:29 (12) - Too close to (11).

I would like to see an easier difficulty. Either add a new one or adjust [Clean System], it's up to you.

oh crap I promised to mod this song, but now I can't, gotta get going.
I'll edit this post later. I'll get this thing modded tomorrow.

Weird Al = <3

EDIT: Okay mod tiemz

[General]
This is not good. Please select one.

Also, delete the "s from the artist's name ("Weird Al" Yankovic). Or it won't be grouped with the rest of the Weird Al songs ):
Make sure you do a Full Submission after changing the Artist's name.
You should relocalize new combos. Seems pretty messy to me. (Think about Tag!)
The Star difficulty seems fine to me.
[Cleaner System]
00:16:23 - Maybe should be better if you put it like this. That way the spacing problem at 00:17:15 (5,1) should be fixed AND it would sound better. (You wouldn't need to move them in the Grid)
ATTACH[sum1.PNG]

00:29:90 (1,2,3) - Nudge 1/4 foward.
00:43:21 (5,6) - Not as annoying as any other spacing problem, but...? Just pointin' out~
01:16:42 (3,4,5) - Maybe you should make it like at 00:16.23~
01:17:52 (x) - Feels soo lonely without a beat here.
01:23:57 (3,4) - Spacing~

[Clean System]
00:29:90 (1,2,3) - not lovin' it. Nudge 1/4 foward.
Didn't find any other obvious problem~

[Critical Infection!]
00:29:90 (1,2,3) - </3
02:05:78 (1) - make it 1/4 longer and (2) - Nudge it 1/4 foward.
02:14:58 (5) - Looks kinda ugly. you should stack it with (3).
02:52:75 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16) - please keep the spacing consistent through the whole combo.

Please bother me again in IRC if you want nazi nitpicking~ or specific combo placement~ or anything else~

Alrighty, all fixed(mostly)

There was one thing I couldn't comply on...

02:52:75 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16) - please keep the spacing consistent through the whole combo.

I couldn't do this because there is a very logical reason as to why that combo switches spacing in the middle of it :) If you should simply look at the background during that half of the song, you might see why it starts to go kind of crazy in the second half ;)
Jarby
Set the preview point to 00:53:85. The patterns are sort of ugly.

Clean System:

I suggest you try and make this easier without resorting to replacing some groups of circles with 1/2 repeating sliders. It's more like a shorter, boring version of the other difficulty.

Critical Infection!:

You'll still need to clean up those times where the distance snap changes mid-combo. Just put a new combo at that time.
02:37:34 (1) - Remove one of the repeats. Actually, I would replace this with 4 circles.
03:35:50 (9) - Put a clap sound here.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by "preview point", but I managed to find an option to "set current position as preview", so I hope that's it!

Other than that, I fixed what you mentioned in Critical Infection. However, I'm not quite sure what I can do to Clean System without making it Cleaner System. It's meant to be a slightly easier form of Critical Infection(easier to hit patterns), but without the second half, where the virus "infects" the beatmap and makes things act funny. Hence the name, Clean System.
Mafiamaster
Redo/check all your breaks in all difficulties.

In all three difficulties~
01:29:45 (3) - Suggestion: New combo.

Critical~
01:06:69 (4) - Move closer to 3.
02:11:65 (8) - New combo.

Revived!

Thanks for the revive. The beatmap has now incorporated Mafiamaster's suggestions. Play and have fun!

The song is funny but the notes are random and all over the place. Sure, you might have timed the notes correctly, but they spew all over the place in no organization and with sliders. If you play EBA or Ouendan, you can see musical symmetry, patterns, shapes, and everything else.

Thankfully this can easily be solved by organizing the hit objects into fun patterns that feel right. If all their timing is correct, then you shouldn't have too much of a problem and this will be an easy and fun fix to do.
eee
[Cleaner System]

Bigger circles pl0x

00:21:19 (3) - sounds better 1/2 later, that's where I hitted it in play
00:26:51 (2) - ^
00:32:01 (2) - ^
00:33:67 (2) - ^
00:38:533 (break) - fix break
00:43:395 (x) - something here plz, ending to a slider or circle
00:45:59 (5) - 2 more reverse arrows
01:11:83 (3) - 1/2 later
01:13:85 (5,6) - ^
01:25:59 (5,6) - ^

if any of these are done, you should re-distance them. They're there cause I had a hard time hitting most 1/2 red notes, ya know.

[Clean System]
00:38:533 (break) - fix break

[Critical Infection]
01:37:982 (break) - fix
02:12:57 (5) - end 1/4 later? I think so
02:38:166 (break) - fix
this one twas kinda fun :D

starred, ya knowz, cause it needz more, duh, and it's pretty cool mapz, ya knowz

Blue = design/minor issues. you do not have to change these if you don't want to
Orange = moderate issues. it would be best if you change these, but you may be able to get away with not changing it
Red = major issues. you need to change these

i'd take away -15ms from your offset

[JAMES2250'S SYSTEM]

00:26:14 (x) - put a beat here?

[CLEAN SYSTEM]

00:21:74 (11,12) - spacing. too far apart

[CRITICAL INFECTION!]

this and Clean Sustem are incredibly similar. i'd suggest toning down Clean system, since it almost seems like you copy-pasted the notes from this diff and moved them around :/.

also, some of the parts in this diff are messy, such as when you overlap a bunch of notes, which happens a lot. maybe spread them out a bit?

and that SB'd BSoD would look better if it came in at the end, after that spinner

00:21:74 (11,12) - spacing. too far apart
01:49:81 (3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12) - not a good place to have wider spacing. i'd keep this at normal spacing
02:13:12 (1,2) - spacing. too close together
02:16:42 (2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - again, not a good spot for wider spacing, imo at least
02:37:34 (1) - add an extra repeat?
02:44:12 (2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) - this would be a good spot for wider spacing. i'd do that with these. i'd also the same with the stream at 02:52:93 too.
03:09:08 (5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12) - not a good spot for wider spacing imo.

this need some more work done to it i think. it isn't bad, just needs more work before rankage. when you've fixed these, call me back and ill remod and such. heres a star for now.

btw, can i make a diff for this?

Thanks for the mod! *gives kudosu*

I fixed all of the yellow stuff and some of the blue things. I'll work on fixing more later. For example, I'll make sure to get cracking on making Clean System more unique!

Now, about that Blue Screen of Death. As you saw, it appears before the second half of Critical Infection. This symbolizes that the "Virus" here has infected the beatmap, which is why the second half is so random. Spacing randomly changes(although not in an unrankable fc killing way), hitsounds become whacked, and strings of notes randomly feature notes on top of each other. As it is such a marking point, I can't move it.

Also, feel free to make a difficulty! If you intend to do an easier difficulty only encompassing half of the song, name it "Doomsday93's System". If you intend to map the entire song, name it "Doomsday93's Infection". Oh, and feel free to do something similar to what I did during the second half :)
