o/ and sorry for the... weird title
i looked for it but it seems like the current osu!wiki has changed the content. however, i remember that in the old wiki article of i think it was star rating / difficulty there was a description of what things are used to calculate the star rating of an individual map. one of these factors was something along the lines of 'weirdness' (sorry again, not the exact word, but 🦀 the article is gone 🦀). this always interested me. is this still part of the calculation? does it play a role for pp? and what would interest me the most: would it be possible for someone to calculate this weirdness-factor for some beatmaps? i always wondered what would happen if you just crank it up. like would tech-heavy maps actually get boosted? would armin's airman diff get boosted as well because it feels really weird but is still pp farm map? so many questions :x

Rhythmic complexity is barely being accounted for in neither SR nor PP calculation, though that most likely will change in the near future.

You can tell that it isn't really accounted for by looking at both the PP and SR of these maps and then looking at their leaderboard.

i know. that's why i'm asking if this variable i read about might be able to fix it by just increasing it. i wonder if there already is a good measurement of this 'rhytmic complexity' and we're just not using it. or if it was something entirely different.

Âs far as I know, we can't really buff it yet without unintentionally buffing other maps due to false positives.

when was the last time tom or anyone even touched the sr system?
serious question, ive been out of the loop for many years now.
i was under the impression it was more or less done since changing it while preserving overall pp (which was always an expressed intent) becomes harder and harder.

i dont think peppy gonna change any of it himself since he doesnt play the game

Xexxar's done a lot recently, for example the HD change last May and the (hopefully) upcoming angle change.
