Oh wait, they were neither awesome nor did people look at them.
I have a hard time telling if you just decided to be retarded or are geniuenly plain stupid. I’m still 10 years old.
Here, here let me try one:
Man, I remember when everyone was excited to see what’s my 1000th post was.
Oh wait, nobody cared.
How was that? Was that some good passive aggressiveness?
No, now you're being plain stupid, there's a pretty big difference last time I remember.
Unlike you, I actually have made 3 maps that were quality in the year they were posted (with the exception of the first one, I was still relatively new at mapping, but I had a lot of friends that worked with me here and there), which makes me more... notable in a few other situations, I know I have a few hundred random followers somewhere. After early 2015 in mapping, I took a nice, long break, and decided to hunker down in OT, bad idea, I don't know what the fuck I was thinking, probably thought that I would hope to find some kind of... inner peace?
Didn't work out.
Back on topic with the mapping, I've managed to gather quite a few good friends here and there, to help me with mapping, especially on my second map, but the third map I've decided to go make all of my difficulties by myself, no collab, no gds, nothing. I found it smooth. Enter 2015, after my last map got ranked, the era of osu!mapping that brought in "pp mapping", and "unranked, but now ranked patterns". We've transitioned from 2013 where quality was a thing in mapping, to 2015 where quality is thrown out of the fucking window, and replace it with "just make jumps on every beat, it's going to be amazing, and everyone will play it for years!". It sickens me that mapping for the past three years have taken a shit route, there are still some great maps every once in a while, but it seems like the majority of mapping is just make a few easy difficulties, and 75% of the set be all insanes or extra difficulties.
I'm sure it's "slowing down" that habit in mapping, and quality is slowly returning, but for three years it's kind of been... all a popularity vote. Even if your maps looks really good, someone else that has made another map in the quickest time possible, but they are more popular, so everyone is waiting for their map, and not for your map, because even if they're both on the same quality level, their map will gain more fame because they have more people loving them.
Someone's going to prove me wrong, but I am just seeing what I've been seeing for three years, perhaps four. It's also worth mentioning that there seems to be more drama too, especially recently with an
85 fucking combo, like that's not fun at all I guess.
Anyways, the point I'm trying to make with the wall of text is that you are young, and while that might be both a good thing and a bad thing, one day you will look back like most of us and realize "Gee, whatever I did sure did make me look like an idiot.". But you have all the time in the wor- actually, you have probably about four more years, or really your entire high school life, to think about what you want to do for the future. You start thinking now, and when you graduate from high school you will most likely, if not, guaranteed that whatever you thought at the beginning of high school is not what you are thinking as you graduate. In other words, you will change what you want to do in the future, some people claim you can do it up to 15 times before you actually finally figure it out.
Nobody really likes me in OT, hell not even john or abraker I bet, but one thing I will bring to the table is that I have experience. I'm sure a lot of other people have said experience too, but that's what it all comes down to in the end, even landing in a job. If you don't have the experience, you ain' gettin' the job. That's just how life works, whether you like it or not.
And if you want to be passive aggressive, you are not doing it right, but right now, you might be on the right track, to be doing it right. Right? Yeah, I thought so.
