Why do I always completely lose my shit when I lose my first life? At least I made it.

Also good luck chum!

thanks ^_^

I might be lucky with the game picks. this is a game I 1cc:ed years ago (no checkpoints that time, though) so it was easy enough to reach stage 5 where the memorization starts kicking in more.

Didn't stop me from chaindying on stage 3, though. But had it been a blind attempt it would be unlikely I'd make it to stage 4.

Aha, it seems no one (watched ) noticed the shmupsfarm easter egg in my last Death Roulette vid.. It's near the end.

[ACSeraph]

Our deep mythology

That first death was total bullshit btw, I completely agree.

[Heavy Viper]

That is a bum rap, Blinge. Don't know how that little vulcan bullet got its way.

[Blinge]

Haha, it's fine. I ain't mad, cause the rest of my play was trash anyway.

pandoraXhunter - R-Type Leo (Japan) - P1 - Stage 3 - 280,300 (FAIL)



2 deaths during stage 2 ruined it :<

[ProjectAKo]

Project A-Ko - R-Type LEO (Japan) - P1 - St. 4 - 481,000 Pass



I think I did insanely well and survived so many traps which shouldve killed me just to reach stage 4. Good freakin luck with this one.

It was. Now it's decent though. You just need to get a new version of MAME.

[ProjectAKo]

Welp I died anyway. Forgot to save the score.

Well, I certainly know how to end it on a high note: I played my credit on the Japan version by mistake, not "New Version, Japan."

Bummer. :<

Heavy Viper - Viper Phase 1 (Japan) - P1 - St. 3 - 441,290 (Fail...)

Hitbox video here - no crying until the end!

Solid work, chum! Congrats!

[ProjectAKo]

Now that's a game I actually practiced

[Blinge]

SURPRISE WINNER!?

lol, Congrats Chum.

[The Armchair General]

Congrats chum GG

[ACSeraph]

[ProjectAKo]

Good job. And thanks ACSeraph for running the event.

[EmperorIng]

Props to chum for making it to the end with three 'lives' intact.

[ACSeraph]

Wanted to apologize to everyone for the somewhat fizzled out ending of this whole thing. Right there in the last week some major shit hit the fan in my life that I'm still in the process of dealing with, and I didn't have much time to take pictures and update the thread. In any case thanks to everyone for your dedicated participation in making the event a success.

Congratulations to chum for being the sole survivor with 2 remaining lives! I'll PM you later to get some info, as I will be mailing you a set of these as a prize:



As for the future of Death Roulette, I do intend to keep it going with standard rules and weekly loops to return. For the moment though we will be taking a break so everyone can focus on TRP-STGT and depending on my current job search situation it may not start back up until sometime early next year.

Hope you guys enjoyed the event and will return to die gloriously in the future.

Auuuuuugh why did I pick the wrong version those look so good fskdjlakfdjlkjdfs

Thanks again Seraph, hope everything smooths out soon on your end.

[Blinge]

Thanks again Seraph, hope everything smooths out soon on your end.

+1

Also, congrats for getting so far and going toe to toe with Chum, Viper!

[ACSeraph]

Enjoy your break soldiers?

The new year is here, STGT is over, and things have calmed down for me a bit, so I'm looking to bring this beast back for regularly scheduled loops.

Not sure if anyone is still interested in doing this, so before starting it up again I wanted to make sure it was worth doing. Rules are unchanged from last year, newcomers can refer to the first post to see how this thing works.

So then, anyone interested? Signups are not required, but if you think you might play and this is worth me putting the work and effort into maintaining please make a quick post. If there's interest I will probably begin Loop 20 next Monday.
