[mikeKOSA]

so fucking close on getting that no bomb 1cc. if didnt die on CIRNO i could have done it.... damn

[LHCling]

I dunno, i would never think about trying that.

SA Extra Post-Mid-Boss fairies.

GUYZ I DUN GET IT Y CANT I 1CC UFO LUNATIC

DURRRRRRRRRR

ITS TOO HARD

IM NEVER GONNA BE ABLE TO DO IT

Spoiler:

Intentional messing around has never been more fun. Also, this one contains intentional suicides which makes it less practical when compared to the other replay but you should get the idea from this. And of course, bomb moar etc. etc.

SA Extra Post-Mid-Boss fairies.

Sorry but i don't use MarisaC so i don't have to do that. I never bothered to learn it because why bother when you have wall-hax? It would just be waste of time.

[nintendonut888]

I do it because it's a lot more fun than gap haxing.  :]

[Zengeku]

Really? Am i missing something about the joy of moving in a circle?

[Krimmydoodle]

No, but you're missing something about the joy of adding one more silly restriction on yourself and being able to say "yeah, I did that."  But hey, it's a game.  If that's your style and what you find fun, I'm not going to stop you.

I don't really find playing SA Extra fun at all. And its not really my style. Its just how every single lazy person cheese that part of the stage.

Hmm. Hmmmmmmmmmmm...
Let's give this a spin. Go here and take the survey. Do not spread it around.

[Iryan]

Mystia's second noncard.

I mean...

What.

[Jelly Belly]

Mystia's second noncard.

I mean...

What.

Kill familiars, recieve spell card.
In other words, shoot unfocused. That's what I do.

[theshirn]

The only trick is that the gap to dodge in is 1 hitbox wide.

Also GODDAMNIT I HATE UFO

Everything was fine until S5, but all of a sudden I collect every wrong colored UFO because I can't see a damn thing, can't get lives, can't get bombs, game over before Shou.  I got to S5 with THREE LIVES.  What the skdasdjfhlakjsdf,lbklasdjbfbklasjbfjklasbf,aj

[Formless God]

I'll keep that in mind. I've got a 7-week vacation ahead of me and nothing to play in it so I might just put in some UFO playing.

Good luck, I got sick of UFO after 4 days :V

If you need a good demonstration of an easy and practical UFO route I can make a replay for you. I've got stage 4 pretty much down by now and can snatch up 3 extra lives from it.

I still need to hone my skills a little further, so chances are I'm not touching UFO for a while. But thanks for the offer. I'll let you know when I need a replay :3

Hmm. Hmmmmmmmmmmm...

Ack I got curious.
So ... who gets to see the results ?

[Chaotic Phoenixma]

So yeah, I'm still somehow trying to get a Pacifist(No bombs unlike the first one that noone complained about) run of Ran after someone complained about me using bombs on the Yukari one despite almost everyone doing that. I keep derping attacks that I shouldn't even be dying to.

Also a 1DNB timeout of Charming Siege. Considering my likelihood to derp stuff in that fight over that long period, I'll probably get that timeout long before I pull this off.

Also, about your sig Zengeku, how can you like Mega Man when you hate memorization stuff? From the few I've played, it's all memorization.

[Dasher-Crash]

PoFV, Reimu vs. Sakuya.

Sakuya activates level 4 spellcard.

Grazegrazegrazegrazegraze.

sakuya somehow manages to activate level 3 spellcard immediately after.

Whut.

[Erppo]

I usually don't like to whine about the games but I just have to vent out this one. I really hate using ReimuC in SA. I'm actually considering skipping her in my project of 1cc'ing the games on hard with all shot types. Doing the Extra with her was painful enough.

Sure, she has good power and probably the best bomb in the game but she is just so awkward to use. I usually just a) mess up by not wanting to unfocus, or b) mess up by unfocusing and then attempting to correct the shot facing. Everything where you just have to move unfocused (like Orin's stage 5 midboss opener and Mt. Ooe) are really awful with her. If that wasn't enough she also gets a really mean Satori fight.

Oh, and her special ability is killing you if you forget to hold down either shot or focus.

[theshirn]

Game over on LFO.

You have no idea how much I hate UFO.

[Sen]

Hmm. Hmmmmmmmmmmm...
Let's give this a spin. Go here and take the survey. Do not spread it around.

Hm, I'm curious about this. Will we ever see the results of this? :/

[Erppo]

All right, the whining paid off. Did a ReimuC Hard 1cc of SA with 4 extra lives remaining. Her bomb does wonders.

[Naut]

Let's give this a spin. Go here and take the survey. Do not spread it around.

I swear to God if that one question about blaming mistakes on "clipdeaths" doesn't have at least a 9:1 ratio for clipdeaths to honest mistakes, you're all fucking liars.

[nintendonut888]

Took that survey. Said that I usually blame mistakes on myself.

Raging because HRtP wasn't on that list. :((((((

I can only honestly answer honest mistakes because I only post rage about clipdeaths and stupid crap on around one in three hundred deaths.

STAR MAELSTORM. HOW TO NOT FAIL AT IT.

Seriously, it's the only card of Byakuren's I haven't captured. From my own self-evaluations after I stop freaking out, my brain just goes "HELL NO, I KILLED THE GUY WITH THESE STUPID LASERS! LEAVE ME ALONE!" followed by me hitting the bomb key.
 :V

[Chaotic Phoenixma]

Hey, outside of a few cases in EoSD, a few cases in PCB, and a lot of UFO, I do blame myself. I wasn't lying when I picked the blame myself option because that's what it usually is.

[ebarrett]

Can't say I understand half of my deaths in MoF and UFO, but apart from these two I know I only die to mistakes.

 :V

Star Maelstrom is much easier when you start thinking of it as a streaming attack. Make sure to stay as far away from the lasers as possible, and when Byakuren starts shooting stars, begin streaming and direction changing like you would a normal attack of the sort. Under this mindset the attack suddenly becomes much easier.

[Sen]

EoSD Lunatic.

Entered Stage 4 5/3 (one death to Perfect Freeze, one to Colorful Typhoon).

Entered Stage 5 2/3.

ALL THOSE DEATHS WERE DURING THE STAGE AGH ;_;

(on the bright side, I captured Emerald Megalith for the first time!)

[LHCling]

Raging because HRtP wasn't on that list. (((((

HRtP is not a Shmup. Ergo, I could not add it to the list.

If you really wanted, I could go and make another survey and do a "rate HRtP plz".

Results

At some point later, sure.

[Vanikoro]

All I will say is that Merlin has become the bane of my existence.

GAH!

[ebarrett]

So I just tried UFO hard again.

Couldn't get to stage three without ragequitting in what, almost one hour of attempts with various shottypes. Baity can step on me all he wants to, UFO is fucking nuts and his sadistic pleasure in mocking everyone who says otherwise doesn't change a thing.
