comment: thanks orz for having made this topic; I was going to make it but you have no idea how lazy I am :rolleyes:

Anyone who is willing to improve his death ability should play this, especially if you are M. Seriously. you'd improve a lot.

[Amnesia]

2:28 lol ?!

[TWF]

Any way to do this in shmupmame properly? There's a bug where it resets to 500 when you clear your first line.

[TWF]

tried it a few times even with the bug

i think i could do this now, it seems way way easier than before

This was from around the time I got Death m. I haven't really played much since the Carnival and I still need to confirm the m grade. I'll try participate over here and improve my Death record over the summer. But it isn't really a priority. ^^


That's a pretty hardcore challenge.

And time!

Got this one a long time ago, back in april.

[Amnesia]

So you listen trance...

[DDRKirby(ISQ)]

Trance and chiptunes get me pumped...

Or better yet, trance with chiptune sound in it =P

(but yeah, the song in that video is probably my current favorite trance song of all time)

[Amnesia]

2:52 during my last GM run.


000-500 : 3:13 M
500-999 : 2:52 GM = 6:05




EDIT : There is a problem here maybe : I was not starting at 500 with an empty field......

[steadshot]

lololol so close

[Amnesia]

Actually I am at 2min50, not 2min52..
But it can not count, I started from a high stack and finished with a really lower one.

[Caithness]

500-999
3:09.71

[Ai]

Oh wow Caithness! You should totally get that m in T.A. Death. ^^

[Caithness]

I'm so far away from that it's not funny.

[Kitaru]

>averages 37.94s a section
>says he's far from M

Wait what?

[Caithness]

I can only average that when the game forces me to. In 0-500 my average is more like 50s per section.

On keyboard, done while slightly drunk. Felt extremely easy. 0-500, on the other hand, has become terrible for me now...sigh, well at least it's cool that I can do sudden 500 and sudden ti 700 well now. xP

After two weeks of training, I have finally broken the last barrier between me and death Gm rank (and have survived the credit roll too)
Gm rank, here I come !

[COL]

Congrats for both of you!!
Cyberguile, did you step-reset a lot? (more than 3:20 seems strange actually)

[cyberguile]

I did take my time before clearing the first line (didn't realise that when you use edo's cheat, the game doesn't go from 501 to 502 before you clear one line)

2nd time clearing this, and was a super-strong game. Now if only I could get Ms more consistently...

It's hilarious how everything is so absolutely similar.

[Kasumi]

True that. You even got the same score...
