spread rules? difficulties? uh actually i would like to eat ice cream right now :)

[@ShovelKun]

4:30 Take. That. Back.

[@ScubDomino]

i thought the exciting new news will be pishi finally doing nacht 100

[@asmylia9880]

ScubDomino fuck I was too late

[@zenyros]

Storyboarding contest

[@ScubDomino]

shut up @@zenyros

[@zenyros]

@@ScubDomino Actually, saying shut up "BOIII" would work better since ephemeral said "shut up scub." and no, not "shut up, DAT," because barely consider that a part of my name.

[@AncientGod]

He has 100 on nacht but never made video

[@over_loadcode]

have you thought about doing a series where you critique viewers' maps?

[@pishifat]

i've considered it yeah. we'll see if it happens

[@EssentialGamer21]

do a taiko edition :)

[@randompenguiness4616]

O shit my map is gonna get destroyed if he does this.

[@GensHaze]

I'd love to see it happen

[@l1mi13]

Viewers' maps? Well he might just as well review some random ranked map then. You have a known mapper above you in the comment field (ScubDomino) and under you (Hypercyte).

[@Remyria]

I'd like to say that maps without easier difficulties were part of the things that motivated me to improve: so I could play these cool songs, so it's not necessarily a bad thing if easier difficulties on some of these songs don't exist

[@yorimirus]

Same

[@Glac1alWasTaken]

Couldn't agree more.

[@swagmaster9884]

7:35 F on that sliderbreak

[@AisecaSenchineru]

New spread rules, in my opinion, is better than its previous for a unique set of reasons. I posted my short insights of it a few days ago at the forums regarding this issue: One is speed, the other is length......(... I might end up writing my arguments about these on the forums sooner or later..)

[@oldeclipse9601]

I think the best way to make sure that new players dont quit because they can't find any maps is to be able to search exclusively for maps that include a certain difficulty in the beatmap listing. I know that recommended difficulty exist but it took me 6 months before I noticed it. There should be a giant colored easy to notice button for easy, normal, etc that you can click to only show beatmaps that have that difficulty

[@bananya6020]

you can already do that on mirror sites
but that would be nice on main site, because it has more maps + i need more 6* maps to improve

[@MasterAnimit]

2:14 By the way - does rule "1 map of each song Qualified at one" worked in these times?
If yes - Ranking such AXION maps would take ages and I can easily imagine mappers giving up meanwhile.

[@Nerova]

[@AncientGod]

How did you get black ops 1 zombies working on dolphin emulator?

[@imaneducation4291]

Lmao, thats my diff 1:59

[@Kingkevin30]

I feel like im the only person who ever was in favor of the Spread Change.....
What is so bad about restrictions on the amounts of Difficulty's in a Mapset?
I'd rather have consice cohesive spreads than having a shitton of dumb guestdiffs.
If a Full spread is to work intensive for people so that they'd rather have a bunch of Guest difficulty's than thats too bad for them
In Full Honesty I'd rather prefer people not having 50% or more percent guest diffs.
A Full Spread made by one person is the cleanest form of having a balanced mapset.
Because the mapper is fully aware about how he/she intends to increase the difficulty of each diff.

"600 posts of disapproval later, peppy was awoken" xDD

[@winterosu5380]

When you're here just to say hi, hello

[@void_lol3333]

If a maps song ends before map the background dim goes to 0%

[@asmylia9880]

Nacht 100 spreading rules!

[@SakurauchiRiko]

thoughts of new player "oh my god, my favorite song is present in osu! i love that song so much, cant wait to play it ... Yikes i cant play 3* yet, blow that game" great job everyone, like i dont understand whats the problem by mapping easy/normal difficulties, yet if nowadays everyone spams their mapsets full of guest difficulties anyways and literally 1% of ranked maps have full diffspread by the mapset creator. didnt know we got to a point where we dont put any passion and time into songs we like and we love to map, why has everything to be fast. these are just my thoughts, i dont think such changes are necessary at all. just leads people to rush things which is the worst for creative work

[@bananya6020]

well, most songs are already mapped, and I think that many who actually map a *good* song they *like* will make a full spread. This is simply a rule for some harder to map songs that could be boring for new players, or too long, and too boring and pointless to map many times with so many songs, as mentioned earlier. Again, It's your opinion, but this is mine

[@toky878]

yes

[@layreshv8097]

Download Basic difficultues / download all difficultues button on the beatmap page? ;V
