Female shmup superplayers??
Just a dumb question, is there any more female shmup player/superplayers ??
Pretty much the only I know is Kamui and DamDam (a French shmup player with her Mushi Ultra clear). Wonder if there's more...

How many 1ccs do you need to be a superplayer?

Re: Female shmup superplayers??
I like the idea of weighting 1ccs based on difficulty, but I think giving Touhou 5 times the value that others get might not be fully accurate. Maybe you're a bit biased towards Touhou? I also think that we should differentiate a bit more than just Touhou and Non-Touhou. I want to suggest that one Touhou 1cc on Lunatic would be worth the same as two Cave or Strikers 2-alls, which again would be worth as much as two Touhou 1ccs on Normal. Together we could make a list that includes every game that is worth specifically mentioning and then we could start assigning points to them starting with 1 for the lowest (which would probably be some Milestone trash).SMC wrote:2 touhou 1ccs or 10 non-touhou 1ccs
Then based on the average number of points per 1cc we could decide a number of points a player needs to accumulate to be considered a superplayer

Also yes, I'm not sure I would consider DamDam a shmup superplayer. She has a few good scores, but nothing really top-tier.
There was a girl who did a good Gradius III AC run (maybe a 2-ALL ?), but I don't know if she did anything else.

I've heard of some great female Progear and Futari God Mode (5-6 billion score) players. I don't know of any WR holders, though.

Had no idea Succulla is female. One of my favourite names to see when searching YT for Gradius footage.

Two working class dudes, one black one white, just baked a tray of ten cookies together.
An oligarch walks in and grabs nine cookies for himself.
Then he says to the white dude "Watch out for that black dude, he wants a piece of your cookie!"

Re: Female shmup superplayers??
There aren't any male superplayers either, all the WR holders are actually robots or cyborgs indistinguishable from robots.

Re: Female shmup superplayers??
I know girls/women are into fighting games slightly often, but other "pure arcade" genres? And especially shmups?
Maybe some fanzine about shmups had an article/interview asking female players for their reasons, what they think etc?
