---------------
This was a secret tournament map. Now that the match is over (lunarleg vs mattyu007 on "Somewhat Insane" difficulty), I can submit for real. From Weird Al's "Running with Scissors" album, this medley is a quick runthrough of all the songs that made the mid 90s so unbearable, now in fun-size. Enjoy!

Timing is finally right!

New: Full submission with video. Sorry if it makes the file huge, because even if it's low-res, it's long. But take comfort in the fact that however long it takes you to download it, it took me longer to upload. :( Also, I think I got the video offset pretty close, all things considered.

Added a couple silly things. Maybe not worthwhile to full resubmit, but I'm doing it anyway.

You might also want one more Timing Point at the end of the song for the "Hey": (253,160)


Not Too Hard
00:33:91 (1,2,3,1) - these are wierd as i tried pulling them back one tick on the 1/8 divisor. try that and tell me if it sounds better.
01:26:07 (1,2,3,4) - same with these.
02:42:17 (3) - Sounds off but I'm not sure how...

Correct me if I am wrong, but this song does not appear to be Buddy Holly.

This is also a song that I mapped weeks before you mentioned Buddy Holly. In fact, I mapped this song before I had ever heard Buddy Holly.

First of all, saying this is an excellent beatmap is an understatement. Soooooooo fun.

Whoever timed this song, nice ass job. I nazi'd some stuff a bit, and theres still some stuff im not 100% confident with but its an improvement I think. I'll be able to tell better once everything is snapped, etc. I left that to you luigi, because I didn't want to change your placement or anything by accident.

Not Too Hard:
00:35:03 (1) - it's hitting the softer "Hey!" instead of the more emphasized "HEY!" with the drum beat, and sounds early at 1.0x playback rate.
00:55:99 (1,2,3) - Sound a quarter beat early
00:58:91 (1) - Resnap this from the next timing section
02:13:68 (1,2,3,4,5) - all a quarter early? And then the last slider needs to be shortened a quarter?
02:56:86 (2) - quarter early?

Somewhat Insane:
00:35:03 (1) - ^
00:55:99 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12) - quarter early
00:58:96 (1) - this too
00:58:96 (1) - and this
02:56:95 (3) - and this
03:13:64 (3) - super nazi but this sounds better an eighth beat later. As do the others akin to this one.

Nearly Impossible:
oh gawd this is fast
01:49:71 (2) - All of the "TARY" of INTERGALACTIC PLANATARY sliders sound like they end a tad early.
The HEY! sounds like it's out of EBA. I bet it is, you clever dog.
02:12:80 (1) - Hito spinners are awful srs - but it is 300able. so I guess it can survive.

Now I wanna see Weird Al cover Cannibal Corpse

I warned you 'bout sum intergalactix fixes, and here they are. It felt like a lot of the sliders ended on the wrong vocal, and i made some other changes as well. I ensured all spacing was correct with my changes but feel free to rearrange them around as you please.

more insane:
02:12:80 (1) - I think this sounds better if you end it at 2:13:33. It's nearly impossible to react to how short this spinner is and still hit the notes that follow.
02:24:27 (1) - I kind of see what you were planning with this slider, trumbone and what not? :P But its still pretty hard to realize that it overlaps itself and thus the players starts to hit the stream the follows early. THis almost killed me a few times, even when half expecting it.
03:00:74 (1) - Another one of those hard to react to spinners. I think you could start the spinner directly after the slider before it. All that matters imo is the end beat, anyway.
03:33:93 (1) - ^
03:36:86 (1) - ^

Trying something a little different with Intergalactic. Still following the drums a bit more than the vocals, though.

Okay I am all for the beat placement of each difficulty now. However there are still some timing things I'm not 100% sure with, but I did fine tune it so thats probably natural for me not to be sure with some stuff.

I'm going to bubble this, however I HIGHLY REQUEST the next mod to.. mod this to check the timing very thoroughly. Don't just pull a "Rolled thinks this is okay so lets rank it!"

LOL@01:18:16

Not Too Hard:
00:39:97 (1,2) - bring 1/2 beat later
00:42:64 (1,2) - same
00:45:31 (1,2) - same
(and 3 more like that, since it repeats)
01:16:43 (1,2) - resnap as 1/2 beats
03:13:10 (2) - prolong 1/4 beat and bring back 1/4
03:14:64 (2) - bring back 1/8
(and 2 more like that, since it repeats)
03:40:15 (1) - too close to 2
03:42:71 (8) - too close to 7


Somewhat Insane:
01:16:43 (1,2,3) - resnap as 1/2 beats

Nearly Impossible:
01:11:24 (1,2) - resnap as 1/2 beats
01:16:43 (1,2,3) - resnap as 1/2 beats
02:23:57 (16) - closer to 17 (nitpick)
03:00:65 (1) - end at 1/2 beat
03:13:37 (4) - farther away from 3
03:19:16 (4) - same


Timing is wrong, but I'm too lazy to mod the timing. lol

In before shitstorm.

Though I still think the first timing section is off by ~5ms. The rest felt fine to me during my quick play through last night.

That is the problem >_> With ~15 timing sections or whatever it is apparent that not all of them will be perfect, however nobody feels like taking the time to adjust them. Therefor this beatmap rots.
