Assuming you're playing as ReimuB that's not unheard of, at least not for me. Death to Sakuya's last non sucks though, as well as YDL.

Wow. I perfected SA Stage 6, then lost the replay to SA crashing. Words cannot even begin to describe how pissed I am.

You know what? I'm done with this stage. I have a ton of 1MNB runs, and I am not playing through this god awful stage again only to have one silly death on one silly pattern. At this point, I might as well try for a no bomb run as opposed to continue grinding for a perfect stage 6.

Ouch! That really sucks :ohdear:

The crashing thing happens occasionally to me, but never anywhere important (cue jinx :derp:). You've gotten very good though so good luck for the no-bomb!

It's possible you're having the same issue I had. Check every internal scoreboard with every shot. One could've gotten corrupt. This happened to my ReimuA's Extra scoreboard, which led me download yours. I could send you back if needed. :V

Failed a PCB no-bombs run again.

Yeah, i'm a waste of life. I admit it.

EDIT: Got a 2-bombs 9 miss run. AOHEADOUGhaweoguhaseowujh
Horrible, horrible. How the fuck is it possible to be this horrible. Fuck this horrendous final boss. Fuck these dreadful stages. Only good parts of this is Youmu, Alice and a select few patterns here and there and yet this fucking game haunts my soul still because i'm so utterly horrendous at shmups that I can't seem to get an acceptable tier run in it.

Hate.

No-Bomb run

Last two deaths weren't my fault. Anex can suck a dick.

3 deaths to stage 7 Aya.
After surviving over 2:30 the first round.
Blergh. Never ran into bullets with such enthusiasm before :V

Also, <insert useless rant about PCB here>. I'm just unable to micrododge properly, and I keep blaming the lack of good shottypes (and my keyboard) for all the repeated failures...

PoFV...why must you shut yourself down for no reason. Ever since I got my better computer, I haven't been able to play it. I start up Stage 1, and it works fine, but autoshot doesn't work (don't know if its supposed to), but after some button spamming for shooting, it turns off. Progress is impossible. It angers me.

Validon98 · « **Reply #789 on:** April 27, 2013, 12:48:00 AM »

I just tried Extra for UFO. And guess what? I died as Nue was dying, but before the bullets faded out.
THAT COUNTS. THAT FUCKING COUNTS! I WON THAT, DAMN IT! ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH!!!

Yatakarasu · « **Reply #790 on:** April 27, 2013, 02:48:03 AM »

Speaking of Nue. I got all the way to Undefined Darkness without losing a single life (even on the stage) and then lost all of them and game over'd to Rainbow UFOs. I...I just don't think Nue wants me to win.

Failed a no-bomb PCB lunatic on yuyuko's second to last spell. I probably could have cleared it if I didn't derp stage 4 so much.

EoSD lunatic run -> Enter Remillia 4/1, yeah this will clear for SURE right? I can't be this bad... not after that spectacular fight with Sakuya...
Death to 3rd noncard streaming fire bullets
Death to the first wave of Scarlet Meister
Death to bubble wave of Scarlet Gensokyo by hitting bubble when no other bullets are nearby.
2 more deaths and then game failed... :colonveeplusalpha:

Zengeku · « **Reply #795 on:** April 28, 2013, 09:46:09 PM »

Two IN LNB game overs on Hourai Jewel.

Fucking annoying shit. Kaguya you are the worst fucking boss in this series. At least as far as windows is concerned. I just want this fucking game cleared so i never have to play it again.

EDIT: And another failed run. I think I've had enough of reaching Kags with 5-6 lives and just losing anyway. It's disheartening and frustrating. I'll just play FinalA from now on. She's a lot better boss. Easier perhabs but Kaguya is just the opposite of fun and I don't want her ruining IN for me.

Sakurei · « **Reply #796 on:** April 29, 2013, 02:59:43 AM »

guys, I just streamed. EoSD LNB was requested. all I have to say it this game is fugging impossible :V

I mean, do you still lose an LNB if you capture books and NMNB stage 5? fucking impossible I say

I merely jest. I died to cirno once, so the run was under a bad star already. I NMNB'd stage 3, captured book and then came the part I had no fucking clue how to do. 2 deaths to the 2nd half of stage 4 and 1 death to emerald megashit.

the NMNB stage 5. I don't know how, but it happened. I suppose killing doll is the only actual thread in any case. so I had 3 extra lives going into stage 6. what I died to: pellet section. if you think the random mess at the start, think again. I died to the streaming section. so all in all, I died to 3 streaming sections in this LNB. the second death was on meek. some might say it's okay, but I am embarrassed about it. I fought meek like 8 times in the stream and capped it 6 out of those. and one of the failures had to be in the run. entering remilia with one extra life, I knew it was over (gee, I said it was after stage 4 :V). I proceed to die to the first non in the most retarded manner. game over to young demon lord. I just completely broke down once I entered stage 6 for some reason. it was definitely something I could have cleared, but consistency isn't on my side, ever.

but hey, this run was like, without any practice, pretty much. I played stage 5 and 6 twice before I started (game over'd ALL the times), and that hardly counts as practice.stage 4 and 6 need work, in any case :V here is the replay if anyone's interested. it's pretty hilarious. 9 deaths, and of those 9 deaths, 8 were retarded. the only one I could live with was the one on emerald megashit.

BT · « **Reply #797 on:** April 29, 2013, 09:00:54 AM »

Well yeah, it seems like you were lacking a bunch of practice. You say it's fugging impossible but your run says otherwise. :V See my recent LNB - a died to a bunch of silly things yet cleared anyway because doing well on the final stages is very possible.

chum · « **Reply #798 on:** April 29, 2013, 09:54:02 AM »

I'm not sure how many 1MNB runs I'm at with EoSD stage 6 now, either 7 or 8. It's pissing me off! Whenever I capture Meister, Gensokyo decides to be stupid.

RNG · « **Reply #799 on:** April 29, 2013, 06:34:29 PM »

Whenever I cap Meister (which isn't very often), I'm like OH GOD I CAPPED MEISTER and I proceed to forget how to do anything.

Normal, No Focus MoF run ruined by Aya. Even though I got to Kanako, Aya ate all my lives.

Another 1DNB EoSD extra, this time the death was a double KO to Starbow Break.

At least I seem consistent at QED. :V

ElDestructoe · « **Reply #803 on:** May 01, 2013, 02:16:49 AM »

Hey, let's play some MoF Easy!

Wow, this might actually be a good run!
Oh yeah, I forgot about this spell. Good thing I'm fantastic at it.
0/10.

Maybe I'll fare better in Normal.

Looks like I will.
I can totally go through here!
Maybe not.
This is totally a hard spell.

Disappointing isn't strong enough of a word for this.

commandercool · « **Reply #804 on:** May 01, 2013, 02:57:50 AM »

Gah... Died stupidly on midboss Meiling's nonspell, immediately forgot I died, and tried to POC her extra life drop. Got above the POC, life kept falling, tried to catch it. Didn't. Face->keyboard.

Zork787 · « **Reply #805 on:** May 01, 2013, 07:23:30 PM »

after game overing to Yuyuko in PCB Hard during a stage practise... I had a revelation... Even if you know EXACTLY how to beat a stage, and get pixel perfect dodges, Touhou will ALWAYS find a way to screw you over.

Makedounia · « **Reply #806 on:** May 02, 2013, 09:38:06 PM »

I was trying MoF no miss on normal. I was genuinely surprised that I made it to final stage without dying. I can usually beat Kanako without dying, so this should be a piece of cake...right? WRONG! One dumb mistake in God's Rice Porridge and it's all over! Looks like more Kanako practice for me...

This has also happened with Kanako and Sakuya, both with my up arrow key.

Also, Stage 4 of MoF on Lunatic is maddening.
> Starts stage with 5 extra lives, 6 lives total.
> Ends with 1 extra life, 2 lives total.

Tsym · « **Reply #808 on:** May 03, 2013, 05:47:09 AM »

Ugh god I felt so good about my MarisaB UFO Lunatic clear after I got my MarisaA clear, but now I'm sitting here putting in credit after credit and I'm making literally no progress.

I hate how you have to literally sit under the UFO for a good 5 seconds with no enemies around for MarisaB to pop them. I hate how awful MarisaB's damage scaling is. She's fine at 1 power, but she's literally a full power's worth of damage below everyone else at any given point because the spread on her focus shot causes half of her option's shots to miss. I hate how she cannot kill stage 5 Nazrin's non-spell fast enough to give me a chance at the bonus UFOs afterwards. Most importantly, I hate how terrible her bomb is.

One bomb does not clear Greatest Treasure, and if you bomb because you got an unlucky first wave, you need to survive at least 2 more waves to clear it. Terrible.
If you go into Shou at less than max power, you need to survive at least 2.5 waves of Radiant Treasure Gun to clear it with one bomb, and you need to survive at least 3 waves of her second non-spell to clear it with one bomb. And while I'm talking about Shou, I. Hate. Aura. Of. Justice. For being impossible to capture at less than 3 to full power with MarisaB unless you play extremely aggressively.
Don't go into Byakuren with full power? Well you're screwed because you need to survive at least 1.5 waves of Purple Cloud to clear it with one bomb and you need to double bomb her second non-spell regardless of power.
Milky Way Galaxy sucks because bombing once during it means that when the bomb ends, some of the banana lasers will only be small stubs which makes it impossible to read their trajectory and necessitates a second bomb.
If you're at max power, Byakuren's circling non-spell takes 2.5 rotations, but if you are at 3 power, you need 3.5 rotations, and anything less is practically a time out, which means something like 4+ rotations. Bombing it does jack shit because MarisaB's bomb is weak enough and lasts for a short enough duration that you cannot spend any time underneath Byakuren unless you want to die while getting in a good position again.

MarisaB just does so unbelievably poorly when compared to any other shot type in UFO. I cannot think of another game in the series where there are literally no redeeming qualities to a shot type when compared to another. Except maybe Sakuya solo from IN. But there's a partner system in IN for a reason. MarisaB is just... Ugh.

cactu · « **Reply #809 on:** May 04, 2013, 02:12:51 AM »

I got to Scarlet Meister with 7 extra lives on a no bomb run. Again (first death was on sakuya 2nd non btw).
I die twice on Meister, again.
Once again, I can't get a 2Miss, Or even a 1Miss run.
Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck my life
fucking shit
goddamnit
