Didn't accomplish anything in a long while, but now~

While talking with a friend over skype, while he did his best in trying to beat IN Extra with Border Team, I went and beat if with Magic Team for the first time ever.

After that, being happy already, I went to look for my not yet captures cards in Spell Practice.

Took on Imperishable Shooting and finally, while talking and making jokes of never beating this damn thing ... 1/160

I CAPTURED GHOST WHEELS.

I never thought I'd do it on this computer, because control lag of slowdown combined with the inherent tight squeezes of Ghost Wheels = BLARGH ARGH WAFSDKLF. However, I somehow pulled it off. 50 FPS be damned, the control lag makes up for it.

Also, I ALMOST captured Possessed Fairy. I almost...had...it...

If I can capture Possessed Fairy I'm pretty much content, because the only other spell cards in SA I haven't captured are either Satori's other spell cards which are in "I don't EVEN care" territory, Utsuho's first two spell cards which are "SLOWDOWN LAG AGH" and "PETA FLARE AUGH" respectively, and Genetics of the Subconscious which can PRETTY MUCH fuck off.

"PETA FLARE AUGH"

Pfft, Peta Flare is tons of fun. It's not even that hard of a card either, at least comparing to other standard stage 6 boss arsenals. Go cap it

Hi.

I'm kinda new to these boards, so I thought I'd introduce myself. I'm Sapzdude, or no1knew on the GameFAQs boards, and I'm currently a hard rank player. My current goal is a SA Hard 1cc but that's probably gonna take a while due to Orin rape so today in the meantime I managed a one death no bomb run of Ran, with Reimu B of all things.

And as a bonus my first capture of Kokkuri-San's Contract (which was my actual goal, the no bombs thing just kind of... happened).

And congrats Cat and Donut! Imperishable Shooting is a real bastard to capture... it took me something like 200 attempts

. Lunatic Ghost Wheels I have no experience with whatsoever luckily enough but I imagine it's pretty difficult.

I can't stand it quite honestly. You can't look ahead to see which suns are going to shrink enough and which ones are traps because OMG random blue bullets in the shizhouse. Not to mention the sun bullets obscure said blue bullets. Add on the fact that the slowdown throughout the fight beforehand is really stressful on me (HATE slowdown) and you have a card I'm not out to capture.

MS Extra clear. In my opinion the only really troubling parts of the battle are the second purple phase and the two ultimate phases. The purple and ultimate for screwing with my eyes, the penultimate for being a clipdeath opera. The rest is fairly doable, even though I will still screw up on each every now and then. *Needs better bomb reflexes*

That leaves only the Extra stages of LLS, which I haven't even tried once but might in the not too distant future, and SoEW, which, on second thought, can approximate its mouth towards my posterior. :V

I managed to one miss MoF Lunatic. Before that, i had to 1cc about more than ten times MoF. Pretty good achievement, despite my original goal were 1LC that game.

LHCling · « **Reply #877 on:** June 22, 2009, 11:35:49 PM »

1cc SoEW Hard. The "Homing" shot type.

WTF is with the Final Phase. The hitboxes are messed.

Survived, on last life, but not last bomb. Though, I feel guilty hammering the fire button... Died with bombs in stock a few times, but not on the "full" stock of 3.

EDIT: I almost got the BS Star wall. Mima was in the middle. But I panicked ;_;

EDIT 2: "Offensive" Reimu is ridiculous.

You forgot one detail: You also outscored every goddamn run of MoF Lunatic on Gensokyo's Archives. No, seriously. You've now got the top run that isn't a TAS.

Perfect Youmu boss battle. A stupid stupid this-belongs-in-the-embarrassment-thread death before mid-boss Youmu, and some slightly less stupid deaths during the mid-boss. I need to clean up the mid-boss fight a bit, but I think I smell a no death/no bomb Stage 5 coming soon.

It was also my first cap of Hell God Sword, which leaves Lunasa and Merlin's cards (because I always cheese the fight with Lyrica), some assorted Ran cards, and Border of Life and Death for remaining PCB Lunatic/Extra/Phantasm cards.

Ooh look what I did. PCB no bombs 1cc. \o/ This came WAY sooner then I ever expected, since my attempts up till now have been quite laughable. However it seemed that all I needed was a run where I didn't make any stupid mistakes and brought everything together. Lots of dumb mistakes/broken borders, but that's to be expected.

So I managed to scrape by the first 3 stages with 3 deaths (probably the best I'll ever manage from Chen/Alice), and did nice enough on the rest to get to Yuyuko with 2 extra lives. Then I freaking perfected her until about the sixth wave of 80% reflowering when I clipped a bullet most unceremoniously. I so wanted to capture it, it would have made such an epic end to this run... Jesus am I criticizing a freaking no bomb run? Somebody shoot me. Well, 20 cards captured is alright enough I guess...

I suck at Touhou so bad.

*goes off to cut self again*

Good job...but isn't a true no-bombs run of PCB kinda hard? Because of the borders I mean. Even if unintentional, they're essentially bombs.

Azinth · « **Reply #882 on:** June 23, 2009, 06:04:00 AM »

Don't worry, I'm far better at PCB than any of the other Touhou games (it's my favorite, and I definitely play it the most). Plus, despite the games' overall difficulty, I truly still think it's the easiest to no-bomb, if only because of the borders. There's no way in hell I'd try no-bombing any of the other games, because I'd get completely butchered.

And as far as the borders go... there's not much one can do about the unintentional ones, unless you suicided everytime you broke one (which would be amusing to watch). It might be a little cheap, but not using bombs is still about 30+ less bullet patterns you're allowed to fail, which is plenty challenging by itself. ~~I think there were only about two of them in the whole run anyway, and one was to Hell God Sword which I ended up dying to anyway.~~

Edit: God, looking back at the run I had an absolute shitton of broken borders...everywhere. What a sloppy run. Meh, whatever, maybe someday I'll go completely insane and try to make a better one.

Mmm...well, don't worry about me. I'm just channeling Parsee as usual. Silly really, for a lunatic player to be so jealous of another's skill. *eyes flash green*

Nothing special from me today. I managed to reach Scarlet Gensokyo again before dying in stage 6, but once again Scarlet Gensokyo thwarts my attempt at beating Remi no deaths. D: I also captured Killing Doll, but not not at max rank. >_> I wish it weren't so hard to reach it max rank.

how can you tell if it's max rank

nintendonut888 · « **Reply #885 on:** June 23, 2009, 06:42:34 AM »

By the fact that the knives are ALREADY ALMOST ON TOP OF YOU WHEN SHE FIRES THEM OH GOD. But essentially you have to beat the entire stage up to it without dying, or you face a lower rank version. Still hard, but not as hard as max rank.

I tried to get an IN Extra clear about half an hour ago. It turned out to be my best run ever, capping eight cards (including Woo, which I always fuck up on) and despite totally getting annihilated by Possessed By Phoenix and Fujiyama Volcano (both spending at least one and a half lives on each), I manage to make it out with one life and three bombs left. Whee~

What is one and a half life?

Sapz · « **Reply #888 on:** June 23, 2009, 03:35:32 PM »

Out of curiousity, is EoSD the last Touhou game to be affected by rank, or do the later ones have the rank system too?

I presume he counts deathbombs / last spells as being half a life.

It's the last to be majorly affected, but PCB has a rank system too. It's only noticeable in a few select attacks though.

Nuclear Fusion · « **Reply #892 on:** June 23, 2009, 05:35:19 PM »

Just got to Stage 4 of EoSD with 6 lives no bombs. Best run ever so far. Holy crap, if I can keep the deathes down in stage 4 I might have a chance.

Edit: Game over on Scarlet Gensokyo, a bullet spawned on me while dodging through the big wave.

4 deaths stage 4
3 deaths stage 3.

Only one death with bombs in stock, but it was three.

I need to practice stage 4, if I can get through it better, I can do this.

Ghaleon · « **Reply #893 on:** June 23, 2009, 08:16:50 PM »

Did your stinking 1cc lunatic esod with 3 lives now.. uploading as we speak (gensokyo is really slow atm). I still feel like I could do much better.. it's just a matter of not screwing up for half an hour straight (hard for me). So many deaths with bombs left on stuff right next to me that I just plain didn't see.. sighh... It's funny how when you get better at touhou, you die to supider things.

ahh here we go:

Sapz · « **Reply #894 on:** June 23, 2009, 09:02:07 PM »

After many, many more fails, I finally managed a playthrough where I did not degenerate into a total spaz on stage 4. That and the surprisingly low amount of deaths at Orin makes for a 1cc of SA hard mode. And by extension, all Windows Touhous hard 1cc'd. BOOYAH! The two deaths at Subterranean Sun were kind of annoying... I'd captured the card every attempt up til then. Nerves, I guess. Ah well, still a 1cc.

Replay: http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=3683

Which means, err... Lunatic next? >_< I reaaaally don't feel ready to get a Lunatic 1cc on any of the games - last I tried, I could barely beat them using most of the continues. Might try Hard 1ccing the PC-98 games first.

fallensoul · « **Reply #895 on:** June 23, 2009, 09:22:36 PM »

Hum... I'm not sure if I can call it an accomplishment... but I could manage till Yuyuko's 80% Reflowering and Remilia's Scarlet Meister (Lunatic) with one credit these last days...

[edit]
MarisaA default lives at each one...

BTW, PCB I only 1cc'ed Lunatic with default lives with SakuyaB...

LHCling · « **Reply #896 on:** June 23, 2009, 10:04:17 PM »

Soo... first capture, finally.

Going to grind myself against these Stages I think. Though, bombing at the cost of 20-30 million isn't that hefty on the grand scale.

EDIT: I can see my way through it. No way.

EDIT 2: I've also now memorized the bomb points. Let's see if I can piece all this together.

I dare somebody to attempt to timeout Aya for MoF.

I'll accept Normal+ (Spell Cards only).

Just so you know what you're getting into...

http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=3687

Oh, and a one death, no bomb timeout of Aya's 2nd Spell Card.

I have 1cc'd SA Easy without Right enough times that I'm seriously considering Normal, which is utter suicide.
