LAST WORDS CAPTURED/LAST WORDS PLAYABLE
1 month old replay that I didn't bother to upload earlier. was waiting for someone to break my score first. I should do more runs, I'm running out of "counter" replays.
Lot of stupid deaths, ended with a crappy score.Pretty sure these are tool assisted too.
Also, why can't I not deathbomb??

My first bigger fail was at Reisen's final noncard (I skipped the minor issues, such as two fails with the phantom gauge at stage 3 and mispositioning Master Spark), which I ended way too early, noticed that I ended the card a bit too late and was far from -80% when the penultimate card started. (I miss you, spell card armor shooting for time-orbs ;__;) Stage 6 was okay, apart from the fact that I was about to crash into a bullet during the starting portion. Didn't.
Failed midboss Eirin's noncard -> failed the phantom gauge for Galaxy in the Pot. Otherwise Kaguya went fine, I didn't try to pull any bigger tricks, such as the supergraze on 3 o'clock (Mostly due to the fact that I was playing on my secondary computer that doesn't have speakers. So that means no grazin' sound.)
I ran into a bullet like an idiot in Rainbow danmaku and didn't capture Morning Mist.
Broke 2B, so it's okay anyway. For now, at least.
Oh well, I might post the replay later, I guess.Still waiting for it, this would most likely be a great watch.

I failed Reisen's first Spell Card, which I definetly shouldn't have done. I have to go back and see why did I fail, but I believe I hit Reisen's hurtbox. I'm getting unfamiliar with the grazing here, been playing too much on humans lately. Oh, well. I also was really shabby and cautious with Reisen's final card, since I couldn't remember the exact timing for the grazemoving. Nevertheless, I captured it and the outcome was not too bad, so I'll call it an "ok" work. Far from AM tier, but whatever.
Kaguya went surprisingly well, I was rather lucky with the RNG at the first two cards. First noncard performance was horrible, all I saw was walls nearing, and I had to do unfocused swapping through gaps more than once. - It's not what I'd like to have to do this late on a run, especially since the outcome from the noncard is not too large. I had well over 1b entering the Last Spells, and I was rather happy about it - 1.6b would've been on my grasp. However, I couldn't remember my hitbox on the first Last Spell, and stuck to the bottom of the screen like a little pussy. I have memorized a spot on the screen backround, where up to it should be safe, but I couldn't remember it. I have to make a notepad reference for the next run, if I'm starting to forget stuff like that. I almost died to the second last spell, I believe I swapped through a wall once, since my hands were somewhat shaking and I missclicked right. I got lucky, since I did not fail the card, but phew. Then, the fourt Last Spell of horrible inconsistency. And to top it off, I'm on my secondary computer that doesn't have speakers to aid me with the ingame SFX. I still managed the safespot, and getting out from it. Then I died during the easy streaming portion. Streaming has been getting hard to me lately, for some reason, I noticed with my night of SA a couple of days ago. Argh, there goes 1.6b. Morning Mist was unsurprisingly easy, and yet I almost died to it because of lolwalling. However, the spellcard ended just at the moment I should've died and the immunity kicked in. Had this been PCB I would've failed it. Funny.
"I'll update the scoreboards soon (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=soon)."I have no idea who you're talking about. :V In all seriousness, I'll try to do monthly updates from now on.
4th Last Spell. Why am I suddenly losing my grip of the timing? ... Maybe since I haven't really played this for months.
Easy - Yukari
Seppo Hovi - 1,584,420,540 - Cb - 0.236% - Replay (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=21641)
While I'm probably never beating Aizo or Heartbeam's Youmu (or Marisa), I could use some competition with the other shots. Come on, get in Random. I know you want toplay Alice.
Sorry to interrupt that marathon post, but I'm sure you'll get plenty more of those.I hope not. It's much more fun to post scores when you know that someone else is playing the game as well!
I'll add a few more words in a bit.And then I said nothing. How unsurprising of me.
And that's with the submissions. Seemingly neither Karisa or Zil had done the IN scoreboard update-thing, so I decided to go and do it, given how few scores there were to add anyway. I also fixed the replay link for the Easy Youmu run by GRB, given how the site linked here had died long ago. The replay is available at Royalflare, so I linked it via there. There might be some other ones available as well, but I didn't bother digging into every uploader I know for it.Update checkpoint... oh wait. I wish. Text file (https://dl.dropbox.com/u/39195749/High%20Score%20Entry/8.txt).
IN scoreboard.txt (http://paste.servut.us/plain/uyid), ready for copypasting. In the case Karisa reads this, she's welcome to add it to her list-thingy, given how it has most of the other games already.
Also, this situation is incredibly ridiculous. Adding all of these scores would take... seconds?That was sort of the point of these update-files... well, not to make the situation ridiculous, but to make it so trivial to update that I don't see why it wasn't done. It really shouldn't take more than a few minutes, including page loading times.
I've spent a PM to TSO myself, but she hasn't sent me a reply.Same here, a few days ago. I wasn't sure what if anything TSO already knew, so I tried to explain the entire situation (or at least my perspective of it). No reply to that either.
(I feel like an old gossiping lady for posting this)Ha, same here, but I'm afraid this is what it's come to. This is kind of why I want to create a public thread for it, since it would be so much easier to have an actual -discussion- about it, rather than having to ask one person and then relay the info to everyone else like it's some big secret.
Edit: On an unrelated note, I just noticed that all of mikeKOSA's replays seem to be removed from gensokyo.org. I wonder how missing replays should be indicated in the high score list. Strikethroughs? Remove the replay link entirely?I'd say strikethrough. Through the replay link, I assume you mean, not the score itself.

Guys, I don't really check this aside from to update scores, so if you want to tell me something give me a poke on IRC or a PM.:V :V
Well, I've done some scoring, now. I've noticed that some people like to claim that they're not good enough to score. - I promptly disagree. You don't need to NB every game on Lunatic to start scoring, and you certainly don't need to start scoring with a WR. To be honest, it would be kind of dull if you got a WR right away, I've spent some quite memorable 1000 hours playing IN, and I wouldn't trade them for any amount of WR's. When you start playing Touhou for points, the first scores will most likely be somewhat low. However, the scores will increase as you put more time and practice into it. Small steps are easier to take than giant leaps, and certainly more enjoyable to. Slowly inching over yourself is certainly one of the most important things for me about scoring. It's fun.I'd say that if you've learned the controls of the game decently well (if you've cleared Extra or are going for a Hard 1cc or better, then you should be more than ready), then you're good enough to start scoring.
I'd also hope for more people to start playing for score. The current community is vastly talented, I'd be also very scared. But it would also encourage me to improve faster, so there's that, too.
Anyone know if mikeKOSA wants his scores removed or something? All his replays have been taken down, presumably by the guy himself, and I haven't seen him around in a while.Leave the scores for now, I guess. Just replace them whenever I post new scores.
Wait, you can reach 3b Hard Reimu/Yukari with just survival?
Maybe watching this would help?It did! I found out the point where your run becomes significantly better than mine and here's the result: my initial scoring goal achieved handily.
Captain S. - 4,171,870,340 - Cb - 0.155% - Replay
My Easy Remilia run was missed, and Lunatic Nether Team has two entries by Prinny.Thanks for catching that. It should be fixed now.
By the way, Hard Nether Team has two entries by Heartbeam.Wow, that must've been there for a while. Heartbeam hasn't been on this site since shortly after I started posting here, as far as I can recall.

(I know I'm double posting but I remember a post in the score subforum where someone said it would be better to double post than update if the thread was lower on the page. Please tell me if I should've just updated my post instead)Yes, double posting is better in this situation.
Easy - Reimu & YukariCa or Cb?
CapArepa - 1.061.142.140 - C - 0.164% - [replay] (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=39009)
Ca or Cb?
And Last Words? There isn't a scoreboard for spell practice here-- or are you suggesting that Last Words be included? IN's scoreboard is already very large as it is.
I seem to be on Normal Marisa & Alice twice at the moment.Sorry about that. It's a crowded scoreboard.
As for future goals, I'll probably try to get first place in the local Border Team rankings. I hope to have time for improvements soon (soon-ish).Give me that first place! Oh boy, does this feel good! Here goes:
Very disappointing last-second fail on the fifth Last Spell, when because of the slowdown I wasn't even sure whether I had failed until the message popped up about ten seconds later. Anyone happen to know how much that loses?
Still needed a bomb on Reisen's first :)
