osu! Scavenger Hunt

1. Once Rocket League begins, osu! will have 10 "medals" released weekly until the end of Marvel Rivals.
2. "Medals" are similar to how the standard osu! medals work, being a scavenger hunt rather than a test of raw skill.
3. These would be references to specific maps or difficulties. These can be references to difficulty names, songs, famous patterns, backgrounds, descriptions, etc.
4. Example -> "Oh no! Swing arrangement" = Harumachi Clover
5. Unless the hint is referencing a specific difficulty, assume that all maps should be played at their Top difficulty.
6. If a medal has multiple valid solutions, always assume the most played mapset.
7. Players are expected to submit a replay file along with a screenshot hosted on the osu! website. (Shift + F12)
8. The submitted score DOES NOT matter. All that matters is the correct map and difficulty, if applicable.
9. This means that mods, accuracy, score, or any other factor, do not matter.
10. Submitted plays must be from after the map's release in the tournament, not prior to it.
11. All maps must be submitted in osu!standard and not other game modes.
12. Anyone from a team may submit a map.
13. Teams are not restricted in the amount of submissions they have per medal. However, obvious spam will be voided and ignored.
14. Teams will be told if they are close on a case-by-case basis by staff.
15. This may cover more than just songs, however, teams will not be told how close they are or what is close.
16. Each map will give an equal amount of points, starting at 16 and decreasing by 1 per team that solves the map.
17. In the event that both teams submit the correct solution at the same time, the tie will be resolved via the in-game time that the players finished their maps.
18. If even then it's still a tie, it will be resolved via the final score.
