[challenge] Kaguya's next Impossible Request (ended)

[Dormio Ergo Sum]

precious RL gift

Oh, you've finally decided to become my waifu, Helepolis?
I knew that your heart could not resist my charms for long.

[Helepolis]

Kaguya will become your waifu.

[XephyrEnigma]

Guess I missed out. You need to do more of these. :V

[Helepolis]

You'll never know when the trolling Inabas strike. So try to keep an eye on them and you might receive some luck or happiness.

[Chronojet ⚙ Dragon]

Well, I guess I enjoyed the challenge while it lasted. When's the next one? A surprise?

I guess next will be "the trial of guts"

[Helepolis]

@Kyuu, I am not a rich man. I cannot sent a RL gift to someone on a weekly base :V (I would be ruined very fast).

@MMX, trial of guts. I like the sound of that. Maybe do Fujiyama Volcano time out on the top of the screen or something, who knows.

Trial of guts? How about timing out all of Eirin's attacks on normal mode? OR best of yet, get a high total of graze?

[MMX]

Or survive TD normal stage 6 no deaths no bombs pacifist. Just the stage part

That's too easy. Lunatic Mode *shot*

[AJS]

Awww, I missed the challenge.  Whyyyyyy did I have to miss it? :ohdear:  I probably could've done it, and gotten the fabulous prizes for myself.

*A few minutes later*

OH GOD WHY!?!??

[MMX]

That's too easy. Lunatic Mode *shot*

No it's not - this is how it looks on easy. Try to do the same at least on normal :trollface:

[Yukari-Chan]

TD Stage 6 is easy... I can do it.  I'm just lazy too open up my th13e.

[Zil]

That's not very easy at all. I did do that on Normal a while ago because someone mentioned it once. Here's what it looks like.

Also, if I can offer my opinion on this Tewi challenge, I think the reason people didn't enjoy it is because it's to hard. I can understand choosing something impossible, but this card basically just kills you instantly regardless of the player's input, so it's not like you're really playing the game.

Spoiler:

Unless you do what I did but I don't think that counts.

I hate Tewi's last word. Died like 10 seconds on it  :derp:.Anyway, I guess your right. But yeah, since this request ended, I demand a more easier impossible request!

Yes. You nailed it. Like, srsly, there is no way I can read that thing in a million years.

Oh, and TD stage 6 normal pacifist is pretty hard imo. I can't imagine what you'll have to do on higher difficulties.

[MMX]

Here's what it looks like.

Ahaha. This is ridiculous, but at least humanly possible.

[Puffy]

Exactly, i was tempted to do it on lunatic...To which i got past the wave where its a mix of lasers (luck?)and streaming, but then lasers got me. However,  the wave with "green spirits" is impossible to pacify. Though it was a good attempt to try get past the bullet+laser.

[Drake]

lol at the people going "nooo i missed it" immediately after the end and the purpose being revealed, way to look the same as the people complaining of difficulty

In any case, I'm quite sure the point of this actually being such an immeasurably impossible challenge is to level the playing field between the good and less-good players. If the challenge was actually feasible in some way, the Lunatics would almost certainly be the ones to finish first, which isn't the actual point of making the challenge.

And that is why I am here. Anyway I didn't know about this until you told Pesco to look at Eirin and asked Durrmio for his address. If there is another one, I will gladly join. :V

[LeviLamprey]

I did try this, but it ended miserably.
You should produce some more of these, Hele~
Not every challenge has to have a RL gift or whatnot, anyway.
People will still participate for fun!

[I have no name]

- 'I have no name' for conducting "scientific" research.  (IP)

I promise to abuse my nonexistent power in every way I can.

I didn't even realize this had a reward until after I got it.  Testing out the feasibility of this was actually pretty fun though.

"I'm doing science and I'm still alive..."

I second this motion.  I gotta have more interesting things to do in Touhou than the generic "1cc" or "no death" achievement.  And prizes wouldn't really be necessary either, other than bragging rights. :derp:

Some of the challenges are just generic high-score challenges though.

At least it isn't the same every "week".

Some of the challenges are just generic high-score challenges though.

At least it isn't the same every "week".

Let's make a list of challenges we'd like to see that aren't boring and generic 

Wishlist for coming special challenges:
-One horizontal movement direction restriction challenge with ReimuA in SA! Gap to move around the screen, this is basically no horizontal lite.
-UFO token gathering without summoning UFO's survival challenge! You lose if you summon a UFO, the one who gets the most tokens gathered wins, if equal amount, then it's determined by resources left, then score.

You-wishlist for special challenges:
-Max bombs used with minimal button presses challenge in SA with MarisaA! (requires you to use a keylogger to keep track of how many times you press buttons)
-Playing with eyes closed challenge! Rely on audio cues for survival. (Great if you're bored, go watch the replay file after you lose and laugh at yourself  :V )
-Don't use your hands for input challenge! Like Jaimers did in EoSD.

-Don't use your hands for input challenge! Like Jaimers did in EoSD.

I think these two in particular make alot of sense if the goal is to "even the playing field" between lunatics and and easy mode players. They're sufficiently ridiculous to render previous experience far less relevent while still retaining a thread of feasibility.

- No-focus Double Spoiler or Shoot the Bullet.
- SA using Reimu C, and cannot use the right-hand side of the screen.
- Can play any game on any difficulty, but must do so while listening to Tom Jones' "What's New Pussycat?" at full volume and on continuous loop.
- Play using only one hand.
- Play while reciting, from memory, the Gettysburg Address, over and over.

[MMX]

For some silly special challenges:

 - TD spellcard scoring. Define some certain cards to be played in spell practice and scored as much as possible. Why Ten Desires? Cause it has spell practice, and you can score not only by capturing card fast but also by farming grey spirits by being close to boss.

 - lowest graze on stage. Define a certain stage from a certain game (except MoF). No matter of difficulty (of course all will choose easy) the player with lowest ammount of graze at the end of the stage wins. Bonus points of respect if it's done on normal or higher.

 - play some touhou in windowed mode with your mouse and onscreen keyboard lol

These I like, except the latter is really boring.
