| title: "New Featured Artist: Draper" | ||
| date: 2024-02-24 22:00:00 +0000 | ||

|
|
||
| Pull the curtains back to reveal the latest addition to our Featured Artist library! | ||
|
|
||
|  | ||
|
|
||
| UK-based artist **Draper** eloquently describes his creative process as "I make music on my kompyuta." Now it's your turn to click circles to **Draper**'s tunes on your own kompyuta. | ||
|
|
||
| Not every Featured Artist addition includes a huge batch of songs per artist, but don't worry — even if [**Draper**'s Featured Artist listing](https://osu.ppy.sh/beatmaps/artists/403) has only 2 songs, they're both exactly what you'd be looking for. | ||
|
|
||
| Check everything out: | ||

| You've read this far, which means you're obligated to visit [**Draper**'s Featured Artist listing](https://osu.ppy.sh/beatmaps/artists/403) and download one of the pre-timed beatmap templates. From there, you'll have to figure out how the editor works. Best of luck. | ||
|
|
||
| A lot of our Featured Artist releases lately have been focused on electronic music, so next week we'll be switching things up. | ||
|
|
||
| Stay tuned. | ||

||
| In case you aren't up to date with the happenings of the mapping scene, the Mappers' Choice Awards (or *MCA*, as it is most known) is a community-hosted event where mappers nominate and vote on maps and mappers for various categories in order to celebrate mapping excellence in all shapes and forms. And at last, we get to commemorate the best of this year in categories of each game mode (plus storyboarding)! | ||
|
|
||
| While we'll only be covering the Grand Award podiums in this post, [all category rankings can be found in the MCA website](https://mca.corsace.io/2023/results), so make sure to not miss out on the full results there! | ||

| title: osu!mania 4K World Cup 2024 Mapper and Playtester Applications | ||
| date: 2024-02-27 00:00:00 +0000 | ||
| --- | ||
|
|
||
| Are you interested in helping with the mappooling process for our very own osu!mania 4K World Cup? You're in luck! | ||
|
|
||
|  | ||
|
|
||
| As with every year, the folks over at the 4K MWC mappooling team have opened applications for both mappers and playtesters, but this time with a multi-step process, aiming to give newcomers a chance to acquire staffing experience. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Role overview | ||
|
|
||
| Mappers will be tasked with creating beatmaps based on a specification given by each mode's mappooling team. Mappers will be expected to incorporate feedback from the mappoolers and/or playtesters in an iterative process to refine the map until it is in a shippable state. | ||
|
|
||
| Playtesters will be responsible for playing and giving feedback for a plethora of beatmaps (as requested by the mappooling team) to gauge aspects such as difficulty, suitability for a certain slot, and/or skill representativity among others (specific workflows vary for each team). Playtesters are generally expected to have considerable skill on their respective game mode. | ||
|
|
||
| Please note that if you are accepted into either team, you will not be eligible to participate as a player in the tournament. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Recruitment process | ||
|
|
||
|  | ||
|
|
||
| All prospective helpers will have to answer the first form, which contains questions aimed at gauging whether or not they're a good fit for the current team. | ||
|
|
||
| Participants that clear the first stage will have to answer another form, this time with even more specific questions meant to gauge their experience, skill, and methodology on various aspects of mapping and/or playtesting. After this stage, one of four things may happen: | ||
|
|
||
| - The candidate is invited to staff for MWC 4K | ||
| - The candidate is invited to an individual interview before proceeding | ||
| - The candidate is invited to staff for RAFT | ||
| - The candidate is not invited to either team | ||
|
|
||
| Please note that not all participants will receive invitations to the second and/or third stages, and may not receive invites even if they go through all steps. | ||
|
|
||
| If you are considering applying but do not feel like you have the necessary experience, we urge you to apply — the 4K MWC mappooling team alongside the [osu!mania Tourney Central Council](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Rmi_eiuZ855LNVSBH81Yv4BVHEpiT-Nll8UVyP6ToOY) has developed a controlled-environment staff mentorship program under the Rapid Fire Tournament Series project (RAFT), which will give mappers and playtesters with less tournament staffing experience but high potential and interest an opportunity to demonstrate their ability before being fully accepted into the 4K MWC mappooling team. | ||
|
|
||
| --- | ||
|
|
||
| Did either position catch your interest? **[Make sure to fill the application form available here](https://forms.gle/3JK3BFb7ZQNWK8qP8).** The World Cup team will forever be grateful for your future contributions to the project! | ||
|
