||
One of the 17 full years of mapping ended just last month, and this will be the moment to pick its most memorable maps! | ||
|
||
 | ||
|
||
Every year, all four corners of the community are invited to a big imaginary round table to debate on the collection of circles, drums, fruits and keys (i.e. beatmaps) that deserve recognition above all others. | ||
|
||
The way it works is that you have **10 votes per game mode** to toss at **any map ranked during 2024 that you have played at least once**. Further down, you'll find a set of specially crafted contest pages that will automatically list all the maps that *you* can vote for. | ||
|
||
Once **14 days** pass and votes are tallied up, the top 10 picks per game mode will forevermore be known as *Community Favourites of 2024*, the mappers of each receiving 1 month of osu!supporter. The gold winners, on the other hand, receive 6 months plus a shiny profile badge that is not unlike the design you see at the very top of this news post. | ||
|
||
That's not all, however, because the same deal applies to the *Mappers' Favourites*, prizes and everything. Here we count the votes of anyone who has ranked at least one map, letting the makers of the craft sort out the maps that *really* mattered during 2024. | ||
|
||
This means there is a total of *80 distinct spots* to fill on the final showcase! Or less, if mappers and players agree on the best maps. (But that rarely happens.) | ||
|
||
Now, there is but one thing left to do, which is to review the past year in numbers: | ||
|
||
| Game mode | Beatmaps | Difficulties | Difference from [2023](https://osu.ppy.sh/home/news/2024-02-12-community-choice-2023-results) | | ||
| :-- | --: | --: | --: | | ||
| osu! | 3,510 | 14,524 | +63% | | ||
| osu!taiko | 1,213 | 4,950 | +48% | | ||
| osu!catch | 437 | 1,314 | +25% | | ||
| osu!mania (4k) | 980 | 3,067 | +0.13% | | ||
| osu!mania (7k) | 162 | 577 | +7.1% | | ||
| **Total** | 6,253 | 24,763 | +43% | | ||
|
||
It would seem that the [Beatmap Nominators](/wiki/People/Beatmap_Nominators) have been busy. | ||
|
||
Anyway, let's not wait any longer. You'll find your repertoire of played maps to vote for below: | ||
|
||
- [osu! voting](https://osu.ppy.sh/community/contests/231) | ||
- [osu!taiko voting](https://osu.ppy.sh/community/contests/232) | ||
- [osu!catch voting](https://osu.ppy.sh/community/contests/233) | ||
- [osu!mania 4K voting](https://osu.ppy.sh/community/contests/234) | ||
- [osu!mania 7K voting](https://osu.ppy.sh/community/contests/235) | ||
|
||
Unlike previous times, the votings for osu!mania are split between the 4K and 7K key modes due to popular demand. | ||
|
||
Again, you have **14 days** from now to decide, so don't get stuck between maps for too long. | ||
|
||
--- | ||
|
||
May the best maps win! | ||
