Thanks. I did want you to use the C-S ship, so that was good intuition on your part, (I assume you figured that out by looking at the scoreboard and seeing I use C-S) I have both vids now so you can de-linkify all you want.

Bah. I never said such a thing.

An out-an-out lie.
Regardless, I am proud of my max chain, and sad that the lesser chain has to be representative of my skills up there on the board for all to see...though I doubt anyone is looking. )

WOW! Special thanks for that stage 2 vid, you definitely fixed the problems I had...not that I think I'll be able to do that easily, but that's not the point, is it? ) I'm terrible with my laser, so trying to hit that pattern you have is going to be good practice. You also hit certain parts from sides that I didn't, I tend to stay in the middle a lot more (which has its advantages on later stages, as enemies hidden on the sides will not fire bullets until you scroll sideways) Thanks a bundle!

Finally topped my high after far too long. Nothing special, but I'll take it for now:

Kaneda 30,229,120 C-L 6 187

Check out that nasty max hit....fuck!!

ok this score is somewhat pathetic, but i just started playing the game again, and i was never very good to begin with. i'm using the saturn version, by the way.

I have a variety of videos. Which ones?

any of them, actually. but specifically, i'm interested in the stage 2 videos that Click_Stick was asking about.

Right now, I've switched to C-L and am trying to get a new record for that ship. Once I break that 50M score, you'll see it.

Which bosses does that "hold your fire" rule apply to? I know it applies to the 4th one definitely. Bosses one and two are no problem for me. The 5th boss' nuke attack is a pain in the ass. I know Bern-D has said something about riding the "stinger", but you have to be fast to get up there. If you can ride it carefully so the boss doesn't ram you, the nukes shouldn't hit you.

I would be interested in a level 4 video if you had one available. I can make a few good chains in that one but am having a hard time connecting them all together.

The 2nd boss might if you want to maintain laser contact
with the boss at all times, but end up with an easier
madness attack in the end. I'm unsure if you'd benefit
anyway by using the rule on the 5th boss, but KEN's replay
does it for some reason--maybe to gain a few extra points
from those bits.

I don't have a video, but I have a replay for Raine if
you're still interested.

I have yet to get Raine, do I need the rom to watch the replays?
