Can I just skip to step 6 and be done with it? Steps 2 and 3 involve too much effort on my behalf. |

--- Quote from: Master Bigode on December 16, 2010, 11:05:45 PM ---I just figured out (from reading this thread) that this site has shrinemaiden in the URL because Katchura thought "project shrine maiden" was the official name of the games or something like that. That's actually fairly interesting ! --- End quote --- But the official name of the series is project shrine maiden. o_o Why do you think every game's opening has that in them? Anyway, let's see how I do... --- Quote ---STEP 1. ADOPT A PC-98 CHARACTER. --- End quote --- SUPA KAWAII DESU! ^_________________________^ --- Quote ---STEP 2. DEMONSTRATE YOUR INGENUITY BY CHEATING YOUR WAY TO VICTORY. --- End quote --- Of course! The replay site marked my replay as tool-assisted, it must be true! :] --- Quote ---STEP 3. FIND AN OTP. --- End quote --- Eirin x Konngara OTP. -^- --- Quote ---STEP 4. MEMES, MEMES, MEMES. --- End quote --- Do we get bonus points if we coin a meme that is well known enough to be featured on TVtropes? --- Quote ---STEP 5. EMBRACE FORUM RIVALRY. --- End quote --- Stupid MoTK. So full of themselves. >:( --- Quote ---STEP 6. RAGEQUIT THE SERIES --- End quote --- Multiple times! So therefore, I am the best primary ever! Screw all y'all who aren't as good a fan as me! :fail: |

--- Quote from: ♪ Trans-Siberian Orchestra ♫ on December 16, 2010, 10:27:20 PM ---What step does "Become admin of a major Touhou fan community" fall under? --- End quote --- Woah, I qualify for this too now. *.* Spoiler: (Well, at least one of the admins...) Also, I'd like to redo #1 as a subset of this: Be an elitist prick by proving the superiority of the PC98 games over the Windows games. Just to let you all know, PoDD is an awesome party game, Mima and I proved it at NEC. PoFV doesn't have SHIT on it! Spoiler: (Well, after enduring a long, hard struggle to get two gamepads working with JoyToKey/Xpadder and T98Next, all in Wine/Linux. T-T) |

Hahaha! Who says Touhou fans can't laugh at themselves? --- Quote from: It's Knot Purvis! on December 16, 2010, 10:56:04 PM ---Well recorded Roukan, but you forgot one. STEP 6B RAGEQUIT THE SERIES CONTINUED. A new release has come out! Find a fault in it, any fault will do! In you cannot find a fault, merely make one up. Now that you've found or invented this fault, hammer at it endlessly! The series jumped the shark! ZUN is out of ideas! This is just a rip-off of <other famous thing!> It is too gimmicky! ZUN is just making things up as he goes along! The series is now ruined forever, and your sage declaration reflects upon your keen insight into such things. Be certain to do this as quickly as possible; the longer a new release exists, the less insightful you seem by your proclamation. You cannot dally on this at all; find this fault within the first minutes of new footage appearing. Be the first to have recognized when it was all over, and stand by this through thick and thin! --- End quote --- STEP 5.5 RAGEQUIT THE SERIES: THE BUILD-UP. After achieving Steps 1 through 5, you may find yourself growing bored with your attainment of the coveted Touhou Sensei title. You might think there's nowhere to go but down from here, but you'd be wrong. What better way to assert your mastery of all things ZUN than by pouring your scorn and ridicule on the fanbase? If it sounds like too big a pill to swallow, don't worry - there's plenty of fish to shoot in this big ol' Pocky-smelling barrel. Start with the obvious targets: anyone newer to the fanbase than you are. Remind them of how new they are, frequently talk about going out to karaoke with ARM and 3L after Reiteisai in 2006. It doesn't have to be true; they're noobs! From there, you can move on to other targets - whatever suits your tastes. Have you been trying to paint yourself as a High Score Mastah? Laugh openly at fans who post 1cc Lunatic runs with "wow dude are you like ALLERGIC to point items or something? lolo" Maybe you've been trying to paint yourself as a Canon Commander? Mercilessly chide anyone who slips up on the smallest character details. From there, elevate your disgust with the fanbase to the theoretical level with some of these easy templates: "The problem with the Touhou fanbase is that people are more interested in the [story/gameplay] than they are in the [gameplay/story]." "The problem with the Touhou fanbase is no one in the WTC will ever measure up to anything [Japan/ZUN/Cave/Parker Brothers] has ever done." "The problem with the Touhou fanbase is there's [not enough/too much] porn." And so forth. Make sure you remind everyone, frequently, of just how much distaste and contempt you have for them all, too. And when you're sure everyone knows where you stand, repeat it some more. Remember: you can't drive home the point too often; only not often enough. This will serve as an excellent prelude to your glorious exeunt, outlined in Step 6. |
