Cut your mp3, baka

[Insane]
02:27:823 (1,2,3) - Random anti-jump? ;_;

But it's still so perfect!
gyt
Hi! :D remember me?

[General]
  1. set preview point to 03:09:234 or something
  2. uncheck "Letterbox during breaks" option (it's better for background)
[Insane]
  1. 00:32:877 (3,4) - strange jump - it's more fit to 00:32:684 (2,3) - or not jump at all, like http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/73926
  2. 00:41:972 (4,1) - I would make this jump equal to others (~1.6x).
  3. 00:42:166 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4) - I don't see "system" here - align (3,4) with (1,2) like in 00:40:618 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4)? :lol:
  4. 00:50:293 (1,2) - so long jump... something like this http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/73931 fits better for me [for example, 01:56:087 (1,2,3,1,2,1)]
  5. 01:34:801 (8) - new combo? (it makes easier to read this anti-jump after jumps)
  6. 03:12:524 (5) - remove this circle to follow vocal? (it really makes this better, imho)
  7. 03:21:619 (10,11) - place in stack, maybe?
  8. 03:25:489 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,1,2,3,1,2,1,2,3,4,5,6,1,2,3,1,2,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1,1,2,3,4) - it fully copy paste of first chorus, so flip horizontally + flip vertically this (because of 03:35:552 (1)).
  9. 03:28:972 (1,2) - see 00:50:293 (1,2)
[Normal]
  1. 01:52:217 (1,1) - too big jump for easiest diff, maybe (~1.5x is ok)
  2. 01:56:087 (1,1) - ^
  3. 02:01:892 (6) - add finish to the end?
  4. 02:35:176 (5) - add new combo?
  5. 02:41:756 (1) - may be too soon after spinner for easiest diff - remove circle?
  6. 03:25:489 (1) - ^ - end 03:22:393 (1) spinner at 03:24:328?
Cool map/song, star.

  1. set preview point to 03:09:234 or something erf I forgot the preview point I suck
  2. uncheck "Letterbox during breaks" option (it's better for background) hm why not
[Insane]
  1. 00:32:877 (3,4) - strange jump - it's more fit to 00:32:684 (2,3) - or not jump at all, like http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/73926 It's not that strange. Also, there are 3 circles before and 3 circles after, and it does make sense with the lyrics.
  2. 00:41:972 (4,1) - I would make this jump equal to others (~1.6x). That's a mistake from me, fixed.
  3. 00:42:166 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4) - I don't see "system" here - align (3,4) with (1,2) like in 00:40:618 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4)? :lol:
  4. 00:50:293 (1,2) - so long jump... something like this http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/73931 fits better for me [for example, 01:56:087 (1,2,3,1,2,1)] I'm keeping this jump, as this kind of jump pattern is repeated through all the map... and it's not even that hard to play
  5. 01:34:801 (8) - new combo? (it makes easier to read this anti-jump after jumps) It wouldn't be consistent with the combo pace I've been using so far.
  6. 03:12:524 (5) - remove this circle to follow vocal? (it really makes this better, imho) hm, that would break the pattern I made :/
  7. 03:21:619 (10,11) - place in stack, maybe? (11) is under the beginning of the slider for a reason
  8. 03:25:489 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,1,2,3,1,2,1,2,3,4,5,6,1,2,3,1,2,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1,1,2,3,4) - it fully copy paste of first chorus, so flip horizontally + flip vertically this (because of 03:35:552 (1)). The reason I didn't flip it is because if I flip it vertically, the first notes are hidden by the spinner's hitbursts, and I wanted people to know it's a copy/paste of the very first chorus. (besides the last slider looks meh flipped horizontally)
  9. 03:28:972 (1,2) - see 00:50:293 (1,2) same answer
[Normal]
  1. 01:52:217 (1,1) - too big jump for easiest diff, maybe (~1.5x is ok) Actually it's not, since the time gap is a full 1/1 and not 1/2.
  2. 01:56:087 (1,1) - ^ Same.
  3. 02:01:892 (6) - add finish to the end? There's a finish here in Insane, so ok.
  4. 02:35:176 (5) - add new combo? no, it would break the combo pace here again
  5. 02:41:756 (1) - may be too soon after spinner for easiest diff - remove circle? I made the spinner shorter instead.
  6. 03:25:489 (1) - ^ - end 03:22:393 (1) spinner at 03:24:328? I don't like it much but let's try.
Cool map/song, star.
Thanks for the (random) mod.

Yes, just fade it out at the end. Also, place a new offsets at 00:56:873, 01:59:570, 03:19:296 and 03:35:550 to fix the metronome as the time signature shifts to 2/4 just prior to them.

Normal:

03:35:552 (5) - Left of this goes too far outwards from the center (I'm using the background to judge this. Watch the outline).

Insane:

00:19:332 (2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - Wonky as fuck due to 3, 6 and 8 not being the same distance apart when isolated.
01:32:479 (1,2,3,4) - Spacing shift makes no sense here. Switch 3 and 4 to remedy this.
01:40:993 (3,4,5) - Dont understand why the spacing was changed here especially when you consider the placement at the first verse.
01:59:570 (10,1,2,3,4) - Yeah, I don't like the look of this at all. I think it would be better just to replace this with what you had at the end of the final first chorus which you probably won't do because of what happens at the final chorus. So, I don't know. I guess I just don't particularly like the much narrower spacing compared to the first chorus which seems like an odd change to make.
03:19:297 (9) - Top left of this comes in too close to the center (I'm using the background to judge this. Watch the outline).

Yes, just fade it out at the end. I can't. That's the reason it wasn't done before uploading.

Normal:

03:35:552 (5) - Left of this goes too far outwards from the center (I'm using the background to judge this. Watch the outline). The problem is actually the right of it that is too close. Fixed.

Insane:

00:19:332 (2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - Wonky as fuck due to 3, 6 and 8 not being the same distance apart when isolated. Fixed... I think.
01:32:479 (1,2,3,4) - Spacing shift makes no sense here. Switch 3 and 4 to remedy this. hm... the flow becomes weird, but why not
01:40:993 (3,4,5) - Dont understand why the spacing was changed here especially when you consider the placement at the first verse. Actually, there's no real reason... It's more like "why not using jumps here", it proved not to be too bad...
01:59:570 (10,1,2,3,4) - Yeah, I don't like the look of this at all. I think it would be better just to replace this with what you had at the end of the final first chorus which you probably won't do because of what happens at the final chorus. So, I don't know. I guess I just don't particularly like the much narrower spacing compared to the first chorus which seems like an odd change to make. :( my bean slider. I followed the big circle for the first slider... so I figured I had to follow something else for this one, except it didn't come out as good as I wanted to.
03:19:297 (9) - Top left of this comes in too close to the center (I'm using the background to judge this. Watch the outline).Fixed... I think ?
Thanks for the mod.
Sure
[General]
Every diff have some unsnapped notes. By the way you should set new offsets.
00:46:810 - New offset for changing metronome. 5/4
01:49:507 - ^
03:09:233 - ^
03:25:488 - ^
Resnap all notes after this work.


[Normal]
Fine to me


[Jar's Hard]
03:19:296 (5) - Move down. One third of slider track goes into HP bar. http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/81462


[Insane]
01:34:801 (8) - new combo
03:21:619 (10) - ^

- Tu as oublié de mettre "Jarby" dans les tags de la Normal et de la Insane

Normal
00:34:814 - A mon avis, tu devrais mettre une note ici, ça bizarre sinon
00:46:810 (1,2,3) - La disposition de ces trois notes est un peu confuse, et en plus (1) cache un peu (3). je te conseille de changer
00:59:195 - Ajoute une note avec un new combo ?
01:00:356 (1) - Mieux si tu le commence 3/4 au 1/2 plus tôt, ça suivra plus la guitare.
01:40:993 (1,2) - Les notes espacées de 1/2 comme ca dans une easy ça le fais bof, fais en un slider ?
01:43:702 (1) - Mieux si tu le commence 3/4 au 1/2 plus tôt, ça suivra plus la guitare.
02:02:859 (1) - Mieux si tu le commence 3/4 au 1/2 plus tôt, ça suivra plus la guitare.
03:00:719 (4,5,6,7) - Fais plutôt un pattern comme ça :
03:25:488 (1,2,3) - Vu que c'est du copy/paste, pareil que la première ligne du mod
03:39:033 (1) - Mieux si tu le commence 3/4 au 1/2 plus tôt, ça suivra plus la guitare.

Jar's Hard
01:50:281 (4) - Better if you remove this clap imo
01:54:151 (4) - Remove this clap too ?
02:28:596 (3) - It's a bit offscreen :/
02:33:240 (3) - ^
03:26:262 (4) - Remove the clap ?
03:30:132 (4) - This one too ?

Insane
01:34:027 (5) - Plus lisible avec un new combo ici
02:24:339 (1) - La fin de ce slider est mal snappé

Bon c'tout je pense, Star~

Normal
00:34:814 - A mon avis, tu devrais mettre une note ici, ça bizarre sinon En fait, le fait qu'il n'y ait pas de note ici (et dans le trou avant) est censé isoler le pattern en bleu des autres, parce qu'il est mappé sur les paroles, et le reste est plutôt mappé sur la batterie.

01:00:356 (1) - Mieux si tu le commence 3/4 au 1/2 plus tôt, ça suivra plus la guitare. Je déteste commencer les spinners si tôt après une note pour les Easy/Normal, je trouve que ça surprend, et le spinner est pas toujours facile
01:40:993 (1,2) - Les notes espacées de 1/2 comme ca dans une easy ça le fais bof, fais en un slider ? C'est pas une Easy :( et je peux pas abuser des sliders pour faire ça... j'ai demandé à des nouveaux joueurs de jouer ce genre de pattern sur une map que je moddais parce que j'aurais dit la même chose, mais ils s'en sont tous très bien sortis, alors je pense que je peux me le permettre.

That AR is kinda fast could you put it down -1 (you might say no to this)

I really appreciate the effort, but I must admit I had to think to see the relation between your picture and the map (that relation was actually quite obvious). Besides, some patterns are constructed based on the background (notably these long sliders in Insane), so removing the background might backfire.

Hi~ :)

~General~
- That background imageee... ;w; I just hate the black bars at the sides :(
- Not a big deal at all (and I'm not sure if it does even make a difference), but you have "jarby" in Tags on [Normal] and [Insane], but "Jarby" in tags on [Jarby's Hard].
- You'll need an Easy if you're leaving [Normal] with jumps =x

~Normal~
- You'll have to reconsider leaving all those jumps. Even being a 3 star difficulty, having jumps in the easiest difficulty (right now) it's a no-no.

01:30:156 (1,2,3) - (1,2) are cute, but why does (3) have to be linear? It's ugly ;x; Maybe you can make something like this?
01:52:990 (1) - This jump is too long (notice the spacing here is 1.94, in the other chorus is 1,50-1,60).
01:56:860 (1) - 2,30 spacing ;~; ^
03:12:716 (1) - This one might be too much too <w<;
03:19:296 (5) - (Super nazi modding ahead) Before -> After
03:35:550 (5) - I can probably nazi the end of this slider too but... I'll leave it to your end >w<;

~Jar's Hard~
No problems here!

~Insane~
00:40:618 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,5) - I'd rather play with symmetry or make a real pattern here than just throw notes around, just my opinion.
00:56:873 (1) - I've always been curious, why that weird curve at the top of the slider? o-o
01:34:801 (4) - Add a New Combo here to mark the new spacing? Also 1 Lv4 grid up please <3
01:43:315 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,5) - Same as I said before.
03:03:041 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,5) - ^ (this one is better, though)
03:11:748 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - I don't like this at all ;A; It seems totally random.
03:35:550 (1) - Same as I already asked before.

Pretty nice, but I'm against the jumps in [Normal] :c
Good luck~

- You'll need an Easy if you're leaving [Normal] with jumps =x I disagree ! The jumps are playable, and I think they do fit. If needed, I'll reduce them, but I really don't want to remove them ;_;

~Normal~
- You'll have to reconsider leaving all those jumps. Even being a 3 star difficulty, having jumps in the easiest difficulty (right now) it's a no-no. What I said above. :(

01:30:156 (1,2,3) - (1,2) are cute, but why does (3) have to be linear? It's ugly ;x; Maybe you can make something like this? I was actually making (3) when I kept mapping (the sliderpoint proves it ._. ) Ilike your fix, so done
01:52:990 (1) - This jump is too long (notice the spacing here is 1.94, in the other chorus is 1,50-1,60). woops, fixed
01:56:860 (1) - 2,30 spacing ;~; ^ meh ;_; fixed

~Insane~
00:40:618 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,5) - I'd rather play with symmetry or make a real pattern here than just throw notes around, just my opinion. These are mean to look randomly placed. If more people criticize it, I'll change.
00:56:873 (1) - I've always been curious, why that weird curve at the top of the slider? o-o If you listen to the music closely, the voice goes for a tremolo right when the ball is in that curve
01:34:801 (4) - Add a New Combo here to mark the new spacing? Also 1 Lv4 grid up please <3 okay and whatwhy
01:43:315 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,5) - Same as I said before. These aren't randomly placed ! They make triangles that turn progressively to the right, then switch abruptely to the left. They are meant to look random though
03:03:041 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,5) - ^ (this one is better, though) Meant to be random
03:11:748 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - I don't like this at all ;A; It seems totally random. For the other choruses, there wasn't that voice that yelled "you better watch out"... I tried to make that voice appear in the pattern and that's the best idea I could find
03:35:550 (1) - Same as I already asked before. :P same answer

Pretty nice, but I'm against the jumps in [Normal] :c
Good luck~
