I have been summoned by Blinge-sempai

Sign me up for this year!

I moved to Japan a few months ago. I still suck at shmups though..

Props to Casino is dead. Good luck chaps!

Also Blinge Eaglet and Squire on the same team?!?? Fantastic!

Will be closing registration in exactly 23h25m from this posting (18:00 PST tomorrow). I will send out PMs to team captains that are running teams that are not full and ask if they want 2 or 3 team members. Then I will distribute free agents and create free agent teams.

Be on your guard.

Put me in a team with MSM and horaceappleton (if they're in).

Anyone object to team name - "The Black Hearts" ?

Registration is now "soft closed". I will start assigning agents and such shortly. Any new registrations will be allowed, but your team request may not be honored. Free Agent registration will be allowed right until the first game starts.

Ok, everything has been updated now. Let me know if anything is incorrect. I've mostly got Free Agents assigned, waiting on responses from captains for any changes I'd have to make.

Late to register this year because I got lazy!

Free Agent: Softdrink

Honestly I can't guarantee I will be able to put as much time into this as I'd like; I'm very busy for the next couple weeks. But let's try it. Would be a shame to miss another round of TRP-STGT AWESOMENESS.

To help build up a bit of guessing and excitement, here's some hints for the games.

Week 1: 9 stages, no looping. (EDIT: Actually 6 stages, 2 loops)
Week 2: 8 stages, no looping.
Week 3: 8 stages, 2 loops.
Week 4: 7 stages, infinite loops (only playing 1 loop).
Week 5: 8 stages, no looping.

9 stages makes me think Dogyuun, but that loops, doesn't it? Nostradamus maybe? I don't know a whole lot of games with 9 stages, but then again I'm not well-versed in games preceding the late 90s.

Does 2 loops mean it loops once?

Yes, sorry it's weirdly worded. "2 loops" means it's a 2 loop game, so you play through it twice.

My thought on game in week 4 is Gradius II, maybe.

If trap didn't count the boss rush as a 'stage'.

Y'all guessing as though trap doesn't exclusively pick korean bootleg games for these things.
Dimahoo is a fun game.

Of course. A few of the games I picked are hand-killers without it.
