SA Stage 5 Hard perfect run!
:o :o :o
Congratulations. I... don't know what else to say. I'm having enough trouble with perfecting that on Normal. I guess I just have to reconcile that you and I are lightyears apart, just like it is with every other seemingly competent player that doesn't complain constantly or use the word "clipdeath". Kudos to you, man.

Now that I'm putting more attention to SA Stage 5 Lunatic, got a 1D1B stage portion (bombed the Catwalk and died on 1st pellet hell). In addition, tried out Ten Evil Stars without using the safespot and only died once, early on too. Got used to the motions quickly after that. I was wondering if this card without the safespot would have be Utsuho's hardest, but I guess I was wrong.

that doesn't complain constantly or use the word "clipdeath".

What's that? Complaining is just a healthy way of ridding one self of annoyances and frustration. And don't think Funen didn't do his share of complaining about Orin's RNG pranks.

I know that you are a decent player. So you should be capable of moving a step to the right and a bit up. That's really all there is to it.

Baity: For a moment, I thought you broke 1.1billion. Upon looking at my score.dat, I can assume that you destroyed the score that is my failed (first!) 1cc attempt on my first day of playing. Congratulations.

Anyway, Lunatic Ghost Wheels and Catwalk captured, not in the same run of course.

Hey, everyone has that one attack that they should be able to capture but can't, and for me, it's Yuugi's last midspell. :derp:

I don't get why everyone says its easy.

There's a few others too, but that's the main one I can think of.

Terukuni is a counting game. The actual dodging is easy. Learn to count to three, or perhaps to two over and over.

Then at least find one that lasts more than 3 seconds!  :V.

On the other hand, its only just recently i realized this method. Back when i uploaded the perfect run i did something entirely different that's way more complicated. You just might get the hang of it one day.

Counting game? Isn't more like... a dodging game? Its similar to Kaguyas 3rd last spell. Its important to watch the fast moving bullets more closely than those in the background.

UFO HARD MODE CLEAR!
Somehow missed this.

Quite a solid run up to Stage 4, where you slowly fell apart from silliness, overconfidence, or something else entirely.

Aim for the (UFO) Lunatic 1cc  :V
Yes, it seems to be a long-distance goal to reach. But oh man will it be worth it.

Yes, it can be a counting game. It's possible to do it via sightread regardless, but some people (actually from what I've noticed, a lot of people are doing it subconsciously) find it easier to count waves and from that, determine whether or not to weave through the gap or wait.

Might as well post a benchmark. SA Stage 5 Lunatic 2D2BNG (deaths on Catwalk and SD'sR, bombs on last nonspell and Ghost Wheels). No replay however, since I forgot my replay list was full and I didn't know what I could overwrite. ::) And I haven't been able to get another run like it before my wrist started giving way. I'll be sure to post the replay once I am able to reproduce it.

Finally.  SA S3 no deaths, one bomb, perfect Yuugi.  Need to get the laserspam before Boss!Yuugi down, but I got the first half, at least.

Now if only I could do this during an actual run hurr durr durr.

Time to work on S4.

Current record at Lunatic Catwalk is 6/54. I'm still not used to this card, but I'm getting an idea for how fast I have to think during it. Yay progress.

There's no trick to Catwalk.  It's pure reading.  Pure, very difficult reading.

no trick to Catwalk. 

There is on the Normal version, but that's because the bullets stay roughly in lines, making it possible to read ahead. On Lunatic, the pattern in which the shots are fired changes, but I have found it helpful on all difficulties to follow Orin until midscreen, then drop to the left and dodge through the remaining rings before they accelerate. Because the rings on the left side move first, you have more room to dodge the last few vertically. Staying in the bottom center like Kefit makes no sense, because Orin keeps moving and it's a lot more claustrophobic dodging.

Not entirely true.  See here, by staying in the center, I get a good 3 seconds of focused fire on Orin (a lot of damage for this card) by staying in the center during the first wave.  This allows me to end the card before the second wave becomes threatening.  I won't argue against it being claustrophobic dodging, but I'd rather dodge one wave in the center than multiple from the sides.

Of course, this is with ReimuA at full power.  You won't end the card so quickly with less power or other characters, in which case you may as well go ahead and dodge from the sides.
Whether you're on Easy or you're a Lunatic, be damn proud of your accomplishments.  Don't let anyone convince you otherwise, for it's when you lose faith in your own achievements that those victories become defeats.

After about... *check card encounter rate* 40 attempts at extra, I can finally get past Rans Charming Seige with only 2 Bombs used or 1 Life and 1 Bomb \^_^/ I think I'm getting the hang of SakuyaA now, after nearly 50 attempts at extra :V

Honestly, is that even worth mentioning here, or is this pretty much a "Godly Touhou Playing posting" thread? cause, for me, getting that good and/or lucky at Charming Seige is a major step up from before those 40 runs.

Slight downside, I am randomly failing misserably at things like Wizard Fox Thoughts(!) or her Non-Spells(!!!)
