My proposal is to change the guideline:

Avoid visually obstructing notes on the playfield with active spinners. Spinners cover the majority of the screen, so ending them too close towards the upcoming notes can result in reading spikes. Usually having 1/2 distance between a spinner and the following note solves this.

Avoid visually obstructing notes on the playfield with active spinners and drumrolls. Spinners cover the majority of the screen, so ending them too close towards the upcoming notes can result in reading spikes. Usually having 1/2 distance between a spinner and the following note solves this. Using high slider velocities with drumrolls can hide upcoming notes at lower slider velocities behind them resulting in reading spikes.

I'm not really sure how I should word this one... but I tried. Anyways, drumrolls are just as potent at hiding notes behind them as spinners, and recent maps have caused much frustration because of it.

This is true. I have this issue when mapping as well. +1.

This is already covered in the RC with this Guideline since overlap is not only confined to notes, but by extension also drumrolls:

"Substantial overlapping should be avoided so that the colour of each note is still easily readable and does not pose unnecessary visual disturbance. Overlapping should only be done if the song's pacing or note snapping at that point could justify it."

Id say its not necessary as it is redundant.

Unneeded, already covered by other guidelines
