Yeah come at me Seiga :V
For what it's worth, I would probably not have gotten this far if not for your efforts. I went into this expecting it to be extremely optimized and very hard to beat, but 9-4 allows for very creative route making, (taking into account such things as having the helix bounce more often it will spawn more bullets->more cancelling->faster time). Also I wasn't planning on adding this and the few other scenes I improved since I submitted to SDA already, mostly because it would be a tad rude of me to do so, I think. However, if you beat this I personally have no issues at all with including that.
