its quite funny that the people who want the game to get to the most forum users are being told they are shitting on the forum :lol: cave allready went the way of the dodo once,do you want it to happen again.. it will be the arcade operators who end up pirating this system not forum members :idea:
You're either an idiot or trolling here. In case you missed it he's the one who told me to leave first, great bias from the boot charlie! *clapping hands*

Banana's a blockhead who's been shitting on everything and everyone in this community since he got good at a handful of shmups, he was much cooler before (a mistake to praise him, some people when they achieve something gain confidence and reveal their shit personality), now he's Banana the would-be star of the genre on the interwest, he hilariously thinks he will achieve that by crashing farm threads dropping "this is shit" "this too" but he's only showing that he actually has no interest in shmups as a whole and none for the community either, his real deal is that he's a popularity whore, he wants people to acknowledge his performance, he wants competition fame and he can't live with apparently no one here on the farm giving a fuck about his obsession or what he believes, so he's swagging around shmuppa fuccboi style because being a dick is cool. Think he could be satisfied getting attention from the /shmupg/ kiddy playground, twatter and whatever circlejerk discussion server he's at? nope he still visits here whenever he needs to take a dump.

Fuck charlie HE is the fucking game nazi, if you wouldn't follow him on the way of the dick you'd see I'm with the positive ones here, not with the haters and naysayers, this community still matters to me and it's people with much shittier and fouler personnality who've been ruining it, not me, I'm just tired and pissed off because of them, this place would be a little haven if it wasn't for preachers in politics/ideologues and game theory/competition nazis smearing shit all over it.
And why the fuck do you mention Superpang? what's the relation to anything I've posted? I haven't mentioned him nor talked to him a single time in my life (afaik)
OBVIOUSLY you haven't read much nor gave a single thought to people's arguments, like banana you just post whatever your feel like no one else's around, you're mostly repeating "y u no give everyone game" hurr durr. That attitude is several steps beyond disagreeing with people,. Let me ask; if it's not important to you, why do you spam that?

Or maybe instead people who no longer have any chemistry with a community forum, or only visit to post toxic off-topic shit should leave?

Balkanization in little groups over private discussion servers is already well advanced anyway, I just don't understand why some insist on coming back here periodically with only rejection and contempt to give to those who want to stay.

Right. Although with banana for a while it's rather been only single-sided statements packed with contempt and ridiculous misconception and prejudice about the very people of this community, their interest, projects, relation to the hobby etc. It's rather him who can't live with others and refuses to hear anyone and learn whatever.
Do I have to be cool with him? give me a reason.
It's shmups forums yes, not 4chan, or a public toilet.

EDIT: should I remind you I vaguely made fun of one of your posts once and you literally exploded on me so you're not really into a position of teaching me forums ethics.

Not really the same thing, considering that one is something used while practicing and the other is something you use during an actual run that may be submitted to a leaderboard.

Not the same thing, sure, but unless all players have access to it, it's not really fair, is it? My opinion? It would be better really if PCB scores would be kept separate from MAME/port scores, as it does open up possibilities not available for players only playing the PCB. This is why I will always have more respect for MrMonkeyMan's Ketsui PCB scores for example, than someone who's perfected their runs using save states. To me, it's the same to as buying a painting rather than buying a print. The painting is worth more, as more time and effort went into it. A PCB is worth more than a computer emulating that PCB.

this never happened and this is what makes you and others that completely reject reality, out of personal pride or some grand delusions like Despatche etc such impossible people to talk to.

you need to take a step back and actually read what is going on. you want to police what people are and aren't allowed to talk about, and that was what happened in that other thread back then as well. two well through out posts by me and perikles and here's how you sum it up:
"blah blah blah too much Cave again" it's so damn hipster it's cringey
complete with hammering in the idea that this is not a subject that is allowed. that it must be ridiculed, that it makes people a hipster to question the amount of CAVE on the list.

that is what happened.

Understandable opinion but not everyone agrees that CAVE is better than everyone else by such an enormous amount. 18 games compared to others who have at most 4 represented. Some people don't even think CAVE is the best dev to begin with *gasp* hipters. I can't agree that history turned out the way it did because CAVE just happened to be that much better, either, that's really shortsighted, the genre in general just went out of style so CAVE that catered to hardcore players managed to survive. there's a lot more to shmups than doing things the CAVE way and preferring other kinds of shmups is still valid.

The point was that people playing them doesnt mean it magically being loved more than those games people have put in top. Otherwise it's like "you havent played jet n guns if you dont put it in top5" (nevermind euroshmup example for joke) agitation, implying that games are so good that people who play them really consider them favorites and best and what not.

It's like with doujin games on vote threads? Many have fav doujins, but they cant put it before so many arcade ones they love more, so they usually stay at bottom of lists or honorable mentions.

Playing on a PCB doesn't mean you can't fire up MAME and practice with savestates like anyone else - that's a self-imposed restriction, not something you don't have access to (which makes it a bit different from the special practice board that Muchi Muchi Spork mentioned; by the way, I think that was Ketsui and not DOJ). Mad respect to MrMonkeyMan, of course, and I don't mean to downplay how impressive his Ketsui plays were and still are, but IMO the inexorable trend towards more options shouldn't cause a leaderboard split any more than Olympic records should be reset every time there's an advance in sports medicine. If you can't or don't want to use savestates that's fine and all and the accomplishments you achieve deserve recognition, I just don't think splitting leaderboards is the right way to do that, or that leaderboards need to reflect factors like that. I think of it more like a musician practicing a piece of music, where practicing solely by starting from the beginning of the piece every time is just bad form.

It's not 3 years long though, and you can make link to separate posts. Discord chat would me more like merging all threads from each subsection of this forum. "Shmup chat thread, hiscores thread, strategy thread". All 1200+ pages.
MAME
Also doesnt mean you have to use savestates.

to be honest I don't really follow.

I took what you said in that other thread to mean that people really do play all those games that get neglected, but that they still put cave/raizing/treasure at top. was that a misunderstanding? i mean that's what you said,

Just here to remind everyone that if you don't get your clears/hi scores at sea level they're unacceptable unless the game was designed for another specific altitude.

MrMonkeyMan uses MAME and even stated so in a previous post. Regardless if anyone reaches 428 mil score on PCB, Pazzy is simply the better player. Unless there is a valid enough reason to split PCB and MAME scores due to poor emulation or whatever, splitting them is little more than creating a special PCB only club. As for the painting analogy, you have a point about time (that doesn't really matter to most people on the forum), but to imply that someone like Pazzy put in less effort to achieve their score is just bad manners.

Fantastic load of hypocritical bullshit from some oversensitive guy who couldn't take views critic of firmly installed prejudice against a lot of the forums members. Typical of the usual mid-late-wave generation of hobby community members hating the older ones on about every possible level out of made up crap on them, their experience, their habits, opinions, what they like, what they play etc. Guess who's policing the others the most with that crap? Who's nastier?

Solely because of a difference in practicing methods and inequal availability of said methods? Should then a distinction also be made between PCB scores and scores achieved in certified arcade halls? It's not as if players in the arcade halls have the leisure of free play as PCB owners do either.

Well, it certainly seems to me that the PCB and 4:3 15khz monitor era is coming to an end, if not over already.

How do you feel about AC hardware going PC based?
Will you say a game made by one of your favorite devs has less value simply because it's no longer on a dedicated board, or worse, on a home PC with the exact same spec, or better?

Just trying to see where you logic lies with this statement, given my last "percieved value" post..

2. Score worshippers
3. PCB completionists
4. Cellophane fetishists
5. Competition autists
6. Reimu's armpit enthusiasts
7. Cave contrarians, Raizing rank haters

MrMonkeyMan uses MAME and even stated so in a previous post. Regardless if anyone reaches 428 mil score on PCB, Pazzy is simply the better player. Unless there is a valid enough reason to split PCB and MAME scores due to poor emulation or whatever, splitting them is little more than creating a special PCB only club. As for the painting analogy, you have a point about time (that doesn't really matter to most people on the forum), but to imply that someone like Pazzy put in less effort to achieve their score is just bad manners.
I thought I was clear about admiring his PCB scores (meaning the ones that he got long before the game was emulated), but I see now how it could be misinterpreted. He's increased them a good deal since started playing the 360 port/MAME, but compare his PCB runs to all the MAME players who used save states and very quickly looped or got 2-ALL clears of the game, I think it's pretty obvious it's not playing by the same rules. Field painting with oil or at home by numbers, work as an analogy? True, I don't care if most people think it's silly, but I respect and recognize the few who do appreciate the pure arcade experience. I guess it's what I grew up with. Thanks for the link to Pazzy's run, I will have a look. There used to be a Ketsui PCB owners club actually, see my signature.

Only in $$$$, my friend.
Yes, just like true diamonds and industrial ones are equally special.

PCB itself is computer. Just not a "personal". Same for consoles, too.
