Anyways, more people need to get on hamachi so i can play some SWR.

He said "maho" which could be short for "mahou" meaning "magic", or it could be referencing Himeko from PaniPoni Dash. Since "a" and "ma" look fairly similar, he also could have misspelled the Japanese slang for asshole.

In other news, my Hamachi is being a dick. It always stops with two green dots and complains about port-forwarding even though all ports point to my PC.

And GOD DAMMIT READ THIS DOUJIN.

PCB Easy is like EoSD Normal or IN Normal in difficulty. If you can 1cc that, 1ccing PCB Normal should be just a small jump away.

And I warn you now: only Lyrica (the red one) is available to you at the start of PoFV. Lunasa and Merupo will have to wait until you can beat Extra twice (once with Komachi, once with Shikieiki - and that requires Clearing all the characters on a single difficulty level).

quickly, before the thread dies again!

SWR has been pretty epic recently. Here's a match between Kasada and myself. (I kinda picked the most one-sided looking match, but the result of all the yuyuko vs. reimu battles were the same) (Kasada picked the match)

-SiN-
wow. nice!

too bad.. I've change to cable but still got a lag when duel with mafiamaster :(
Cyclone
Kasada wasn't a fan of how the video i uploaded went, so it has been replaced.
Cyclone
-SiN- should try playing with James. They are probably closer to each other than anybody else.
Kasada
Wow, I've had the music muted for quite a while now so I had no idea Phantasmagoria Mystical Expectation played on that map. That makes the video ten times as awesome. Even if I still lost. >_>

Hah! It's true. Now that I think about it, PME WOULD make it ten times better. :)

I *really* need to improve so I can actually have a chance against someone in SWR.

So far, my best character has been Komachi, so I'll keep practicing up with her until I hopefully have somewhat of a better chance against people.

Ha ha, that certainly is an awesome medley. It reminds me of when the internet would never have been considered for musical talent.

In other news, the dialog in UFO has been translated and is viewable on TouhouWiki. Be warned as the translations may contain minor spoilers and/or nude men, sacrilege and robbery.

And now, here's Tenshi with the weather.
Slain087
A note to any osu! players who use the shrinemaiden boards - due to a complete redesign, you will need to reregister for those boards. The bad news is that much of the old stuff is gone. The good news is that you can do a custom title now.

Its like the impact of items in brawl without the fun.

Also I dont find random movement, locking out of entire movepools, taking away blocking etc enjoyable. The problem is, most of the weather cards are NEGATIVE. they don't buff one person they nerf both although one character is sure to be more affected than the other.

You DO realize there's a patch to remove the weather, right?
Doesn't do me much good unless the person on the other end agrees to it. Lunatic difficulty CPU's are cake and the only time I die is due to the weather system.

The vampire one(heavy fog?) can be fun sometimes, but that's probably because im always the guy with less health.
Ivalset
Actually, most of the weather cards are positive.

I'll break it down for you:

Sunny: Positive, flying is cheaper (though it becomes a little harder to turn direction i guess, whatever, it's positive fags)
Drizzle: Positive, spellcard damage increases (this shit is bananas)
Cloudy: Positive, decreases spellcard cost by 1, increases card gauge gain rate.
Azure Sky: Positive, Special attacks can cancel into other special attacks
Hail: Positive, spirit orb recovery is 2x, increases bullet-type special damage
Spring Haze: Negative, but only for melee-prominent characters. Disables basic melee, Spirit orbs refill without delay. (learn how to use special melee and you're fine etc.)
Heavy Fog: Positive, Vampiric effect on melee.
Snow: Negative, blocking/being hit drains your card gauge. Positive if you don't suck.
Sunshower: Positive, holy shit this weather is awesome. Blocking melee incorrectly = guardcrushed, crushed orbs regenerate quickly. Negative if all you do is block and you don't know how to crouch (and your opponent knows this).
Sprinkle: Positive, skillcards become level 4 temporarily.
Tempest: Positive, +1 airdashes/flys, hjc on melee attacks.
Mountain Vapor: Negative, hides all your god damn spellcards. Positive if you have good memory (and your opponent doesn't)
River Mist: Negative, normalizes distance between players to longer than where you want it to be.
Typhoon: Negative, fuck this shit
Aurora: Positive because of all the other positives. Negative when it's negative. I guess it's a little negative due to uncertainty.

9 to 5. I guess you could probably say sunshower is negative, but if anything it makes it more exciting. Of course, you only notice the negative ones because they actually hinder you (and snow really doesn't anyway). I would bet that you don't even use half the positive weather effects when they're active.

Play more and the only two effects that ever are really "match determining" are spring haze and typhoon. If you have such a problem with them, get weather cards, play tenshi, or get a truce with your opponent during those times.
lukewarmholiday
Drizzle: Positive, spellcard damage increases (this shit is bananas)
Azure Sky: Positive, Special attacks can cancel into other special attacks
Hail: Positive, spirit orb recovery is 2x, increases bullet-type special damage
Tempest: Positive, +1 airdashes/flys, hjc on melee attacks.
These can all benefit one character more than the other.

Fact is, I don't think the fighters were balanced enough for this type of gameplay.
Neo@lex
They are if you EV train them.

I was going to write up a huge post in a serious tone, but instead I'll just say that I just put 3 weather cards in my deck.

Oh noes, two days old. I love the Touhou games, even though the only ones I've played are EoSD, IN, and SWR. Bullet curtains = win. I feel like I'm gonna have a seizure every time I play though =P.

hahahaha maybe its our isp? but i doubt it too, since were using the same isp.

and we just copypaste the folders ever since, so i doubt that would be the problem

oh yeah iirc the error says "connection failed" or something liek that.

oh well.. i just want to test my new reisen pressure strings, but i guess i have to give it up. cant test it to AI because AIs are too dumb even in lunatic xD"

After quite a bit of patience, I've succeeded in hacking the music in SWR. It's relatively simple if you know what to do and have the right tools, so PM me if you're interested.

I've been trying to beat Normal EoSD for awhile now but Sakuya always trashes me. I've been trying out these crazy pacifist runs to try and force myself to get better at dodging and I think it's somewhat working, but I still make stupid mistakes and don't bomb as much as I should.

ReimuB's Patchy battle is actually supposed to be the second-hardest of the four, with I believe MarisaB having the hardest.

As for Sakuya, just note that the hitboxes for the knives are round. Yes. They're round. Don't try grazing them. I believe Eternal Meek has a safespot in the upper-right spot on her sprite. As for individual cards, the only real advice I can give is to make sure you're out of danger from the stainless steel set, so you can concentrate on dodging the bloody set and the moldy set.

I was playing PoFV, when I was reminded of a certain comment made about one of my older IN replays - more to the point, that I moved like the AI. I may be good at unfocused dodging, but I'm not insane. I've booted up a Tei vs. Tei AI Lunatic battle. 14 minutes in, first blood was given. If you've played even Easy mode, you know how hard it is to even last three minutes without injury. These two just keep flying in the face of bullets, dodging through literally pixel-perfect holes, and generally haxing through the whole thing. Hell, I don't even think some of those holes they fly through are even three pixels wide. Yet they do it.

More to come when someone actually dies. So, an hour maybe?

EDIT: First kill at 47:20. P2 was pretty lucky, P1 couldn't use her deathbomb special ability.
EDIT2: 22:28; P1 nets the V. Still, P2 lived for nearly nineteen minutes on just the last life.
EDIT3: P2 claims victory at 18:12. Both ended up at last life early, oddly enough.

So, that's a total of 1:28:00 in heated battle (or 88:00). Often I have seen mists of bullets, hails of orbs, and generally shit flying in all directions.

Oh, and MoF Normal 1cc. Yay.

EoSD, you are a cruel mistress. I've been slipping up trying to 1cc this freaking game on Normal. One of these days...

In other news, I've been working on getting the rest of the Touhou games (From 6 - 12). Mountain of Faith is rather difficult, but it's definitely a fun play. Even just trying to play on Easy, I eat up lives and continues. It seems like it has a really steep score bracket for 1-ups. Kanako is haaaard. Probably one of the hardest bosses I've played so far. Her spell cards are just really cheap and cluttered.

I think my favorite characters in MoF is probably ReimuA and ReimuC. I like ReimuA's homing while I'm dodging all over the place and I love ReimuC's huge range (although her boss damage is rather pitiful).
Slain087
PCB, MoF, and SA are ridiculously difficult on Easy (though PCB gives you a small break by making Normal not much harder). I still haven't capped Kanako's second-to-last card, nor Utsuho's second card. Don't play StB unless you can at the very least 1cc one of the other games with default lives - it's about Hard level in difficulty just right out of the gate, and you essentially have to cap at least eighty percent of a level in order to proceed. PoFV, well... It's a nice way to learn how to unfocus dodge, just don't play on Lunatic, especially on Match Mode (see the above post on the Tei vs. Tei battle).

Why can't UFO come out sooner?

Also, the big problem with MoF up is that Continues kick you back to the beginning of the Stage rather than let you try your luck from when you left off (because of that damn game over music, I guess).

In other news, I'm getting better at PCB. Managed to cap Saigyouji Perfect Blossom -Seal-, a card that I have had tremendous trouble with in the past. Still haven't capped Resurrection Butterfly -10% Reflowering-, but I can limit myself to a single bomb.

And one more vid:

I don't know where you can get a dump of them, but I found this one at the Touhou Wiki, under Other Games -> RPG -> 東方人形劇 -> Touhoudex; and from there, you can go and find the one you like (Last Word Yuyuko, in this case).

If you just want to get to the Touhoudex without having to navigate the site, click here.
