Accurate representation of my shmup skills these days.
That's a hell of a way to return fire

once a week, one game at a time, in order to build up anticipation towards "what will be THIS week's kuso???"

For some reason trap seems to pick worse games year after year. so expect the worstt. Up until last time, there's always been at least 1 great game
2012 had 3: Bakraid, Garegga, Akuu Gallet. Too bad I didn't join that one
2013 had Batrider, and I guess Hizhouzame is pretty cool too.
2014 had Gemini Wing
2015 didn't have anything too great, but Strikers 1945 is ok
let's hope that Tarp has seen the error of his ways and will pick only CAVE games so we can all have some fun this time!

Because you said that, he's going to pick Hacha Mecha Fighter to top off five weeks of NMK.
NTSC-J: You know STGs are in trouble when you have threads on how to introduce them to a wider audience and get more people playing followed by threads on how to get its hardcore fan base to play them, too.

You know something's wrong when no Cave looks like more like a quality guarantee than vice versa.
Play for fun and win when you can.

I hope Wing Force should be on the list. Definitely good choice of first-week tier or breather game after playing top tier kusoges for weeks.

If my math is right, one more free agent means everyone gets placed on a three man team.

Should we make/have a STGT discord or some other, similar hub for all participants to threaten each other on?
Would be pretty cool.

How about a shmup-themed internet forum?
