This is something I thought of yesterday.
Any active beatmapper is bound to have countless WIP maps that have not been done either because he/she can't, isn't interested or whatever other reason.
So I propose a recycling center. On BSS, add a new destination alongside WIP and Completed.
This new area will be for people to submit their already-timed and ready to be mapped maps. The idea is that maps submitted to this area can be picked up for others to immediately begin mapping, as they will already be timed, named, setup and everything.
I don't know about anyone else, but I had a good 100 WIP projects that I never did simply because I was unable to map them, or in my case, usually, because I couldn't make a good map out of it. I would have gladly donated these maps to this new area for other folks to make good use of them. Sadly, I formatted though.
This would have many benefits, but primarily, allow beginner beatmappers to begin mapping these pre-timed maps.
This could be even further enhanced to use the Kudosu system. Players could submit their pre-timed maps for other people. Should their map be used to produce a ranked beatmap, reward the submitting player will X Kudosu. This of course will require some sort of moderation, to prevent people who submitted poorly or even untimed maps from receiving Kudosu. Either way, it could work.
'tis all for now.
