Straight forward question, who really motivated you into continuing to playing/mapping ctb. for me it was Nit0ri,Back then i would say we were fairly similar in skills i'd often try to keep up with the pace of his improvement as he was really improving a lot faster than me, it kept determined to try. he had gotten a 300pp play way before i did so i tried to get one myself and i eventually did. too bad he had stopped playing. i see him online is now and then .-.

Who is your motivator for CTB?

They're not really motivators, since I never talked to them when I started playing CTB, but Sternenstab and Axiaan were people that inspired me to SS farm. They unintentionally motivated me to get as much SS ranks as them. I'm far from them though. x)

what
Btw for me there are also SS farmers, like me: PakaChan, Lavanville, Rumm, NanaTsubasa etc.
And for skill, Rantanzyon.
13187berlin & Vlady_idk & KawaiiCxncer for the motivation to make a 100% accuracy account.
13187berlin & Disco-Master they are my gods! xD My motivation for everything!:D

tbh it's catzer not even tryna be sappy or anything, I don't poke around the forums too often (but I'd really like to start) and I see him pop up a bunch which is how I got to see him first, then I saw that he was pretty high ranked off of only nomod plays and that's really cool I think. I haven't tried learning mods and I feel like I should soon but he reminds me that there's no rush to learn mods, just keep playing whatever's fun and I appreciate that
Motivation for playing:
Got bored playing osu!std and decided to boot up the Catch the Beat gamemode. Soon after just messing about, I got tapped on my shoulder by some dude (this was at COE2018). Turns out it was b-a-d-s123, Vinci007 and Groex. After some talking and tips I decided to give it a go and keep playing as I liked the movement, the possibilities and challenges it presented, I've kept going and received positive feedback about my improvement, which kept me in the scene. During that time I saw them play and noticed how good it gets when you're top 25. After a few months of playing I gave it a break. Came back 4 months later and am still grinding to this day. Another motivator for my playing is the people I talk to daily; we talk about getting scores / improving ourselves as a player etc.
TL;DR: Met top players when playing CtB out of the blue, positive feedback from peers, friendly community.
Motivation for mapping:
Mostly the mappers' maps I've enjoyed and how little maps there actually are for Catch the Beat. (converts are too hard)
Biggest inspirations when it comes to players: Ascendance & Spectator, I see their names almost everywhere when I'm looking for a map to play and they play very nice. For my maps, I think of it as to give back to the Catch the Beat's mappers & players. Despite them knowing that their map will be not as popular as the typical 1-2 jumps in osu!std, they do it because they care about the community (I assume).
TL;DR: Good mappers make me enjoy mapping, giving back to the community.
Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.

mapping
what got me into this: medals (yes, medals. i know.)
what got me staying: it being an epic game mode
what got me leaving: not enough ranked non-convert maps. i won't bend to play your filthy converts!
what will get me to come back: well, lots of new maps since then so will be back soon <3
honorable mentions: vinci007 for randomly just talking to me, giving me tips, etc. like out of the blue he just appeared spectating while i was playing normally and i barely scratched 3 digits. like does he randomly scroll through everyone playing catch and just spectates them randomly?

For me it Was Trent for telling me I was a good player who was improving quite quickly when I only had around 2kpp or so.
Fii
The hype I get from playing cool songs
For playing - MBomb and others in the UK o!c community
For mapping - anyone who ever played and enjoyed my maps <3

For me, it would probably be my friend, WitheringSou1. A few months ago, our ranks were really similar and it was just a competition to so who gets better the fastest. But then I stopped farming and he sped ahead.
Gameplay: andysun, Venlas (for spinning), b-a-d-s123 (for HD), Abstract- (for DT)
Mapping: Spectator
Mapping: Spectator
Motivator in the early days: Krzysiek
Now: osu! friends and the feeling of progress up to this point

Kulli mainittu :pogchamp:
SSPortal and KamuiFGakupo was my motivators
strange that i haven't seen him already but : ExGon
Since i started playing he was always at the top throwing out impossible scores left and right and i kinda wanted to be like him well rip

in my 5 years playing this my only goal is to pass Dark Diego in Ranked Score and all to i can, because i think he is the best chilean player (in my opinion) so at the same time is my inspiration to make more than him
In the early days amay173 was my inspiration to get better and improve.
Now my friends are my motivation to play, improve and stuffs, in particular people like:
-Kaguya, Nana Hiragi, LeWind, Emily Yukari, Eito and many more!
For "skill": I've always admired [224]Reol when he was still active. Nowadays its Amlink, Netamaru,He Ang Erika,geraldwch,Trent,LeWind,Motion,Hyperw7 and of course Exgon

In the early : Drafura/Rantanzyon/VelperK/Deif and some friend
Now : None because I mostly know nobody lol..

Shadow Legend
I was motivated by the player zHiroki, who had overtaken me at that time, after I had stopped playing the mode some time ago. Nowadays I have managed to overtake him and give myself my own drive to play. but I'm still happy when he has a play again, because I really like to compete with him
mostly myself but there's other people like cxlucha

Pittoo we're good friends and hes really chill and stuff
I wouldn't really say he was a motivator but more of an inspiration. That was 224Reol, a player back from 2015 iirc.
Back then he was one of the top players, but the main thing I respected about him was his down to earth attitude to the game and life in general. Only really played for the music and the fun of the game. This is the main reason I still come back to catch every once in awhile, for the music and the fun patterns. Otherwise I would have left the mode a long time ago and just played standard or do something else.

Tupxx was somebody I compared my plays with quite often before I stopped playing CtB for a year. But before him (like maybe rank 5kish), I would just join a multi lobby and if somebody had a rank similar to mine, I'd just copy their top plays.
