That's Byakuren's only spell I have a perfect capture record of with ReimuA. In fact, it's the only spell I have a perfect capture record of (on normal) with ReimuA.
You can always count on me to fail on the most trivial things, because my mental focus is about as steady as the stock market (bad analogy lol).
Also, ND1B IN easy, and the bomb was for score.
WHY MUST YOU TORMENT ME I HAD THE PERFECT SCREW IT I THINK I'LL COUNT THAT
This sounds like it belongs in the Accomplishments thread.
If you're bombing for score, I would personally still consider it a perfect run. Score can be strange, sometimes, because it's not always an accurate indicator of a player's skill. When I was going through the Touhou Extra Stages, some of my failed runs had higher scores than some completed runs on YouTube by players who are clearly more skilled than I am, and I had absolute disregard for the intricacies of the scoring systems aside from basic PoC usage.
Geesh, ten minutes of practice and I can already see what's wrong with my approach as well as my attitude in general.
Damn, that's pretty harsh on yourself.
There's nothing wrong with being analytical. In fact, when used properly, it can get better results more quickly than raw practice alone.
...I thought had a legitimate shot at actually beating Flandre on only my third try.
Wow, you almost beat Flandre on only your third attempt? Doesn't sound too much like a rage moment other than the fact that your keyboard BS'd you.
>five consecutive deaths with bombs in stock despite pressing the X button on four of them
It does sound like your keyboard has serious issues. Of all things, it's this sort of problem that makes me RAGE. What kind of keyboard do you use?
