Okay, I decided to give up the whole red/yellow color thing and make separate rapid fire charts. The RF charts start at 5 slots, but hopefully they'll expand to close to the max 30 slots as more people submit scores. I thought this would be good for many reasons, for example it might attract more competition (there is only one person on the ORIGINAL mode rapid fire, surely someone can overtake him!), and people on the default settings charts will no longer feel 'cheated' by those with higher scores using rapid fire.
Hopefully this is OK with everyone.
PS-there will be no rapid fire chart for Arrange mode, as Rapid fire is useless in that mode.

Okay, here's another change to the high score thread-- I'm going to list how many spare lives you finished the game with. Obviously this is only applicable to those of you with ALL scores. List them in the format LxX, for example if you finish the game with 2 spare lives, list it as Lx2, if you finish with no spare lives, list it as Lx0.
This is particularly helpful in Arrange mode scores, but also good to know for Maniac and Ultra mode.
Anyway, you don't have to update your old scores with this info, but if you want to tell me how many lives you finished with in your high score, please do and I'll update the charts.

Hm, is this useful ? Watching the videos for Original, you need to do quite some tedious milking to get a final score of around 17 mil instead of the more typical 9 to 10 mil when 1CC'ing, so it's kind of obvious how many lives you had left -- the only border case being if someone manages to 1CC with only 7 mil, but one life left 
Ok might be useful for Maniac etc, I don't know..
Also, is there any use for a separate rapid fire table for Original ? Wouldn't the score actually be lower than on default due to slightly less stuff falling out of the trees etc ?
Don't get me wrong, great work on the new thread though
Good to see the competition still going strong

Good to see the competition still going strong No, rapid fire in original gives you a higher score if used properly. For example, using an A+ of 4 while sitting on top of those green bushes in stage 2 when they are closed makes your score rocket. The Original mode player on the superplay DVD, for example, uses rapid fire.bpe wrote: Also, is there any use for a separate rapid fire table for Original ?

And yeah, one's remaining lives are usually evident from the score in Original mode, but not in the other modes.
I tried out Rapid fire tonight, and improved my score:
MANIAC MODE (RAPID FIRE)
235,654,921 - TWE - Stage 5 - PS2 – [A+5, C+2]
I think I'll stick with rapid fire as I enjoy the game more without having sore hands! I made it to the last boss this time, and died during its second phase. I lost 3 lives in stage 3 (2 on the boss!) though, for some weird reason, getting through Stage 4 unscathed. The 1CC is near!

I had 4 spare lives going into stage 5, so finishing with only one spare left feels a little "eh" 
But oh well, up a few spots, so here it is :
(Edit 16/06: pic removed, better below)
ORIGINAL MODE
19,712,352 - bpe - All - PCB – Lx1
Arcade, no mucking with the controls afaik.

I think it's ok, it adds just a little bit of competition, but since the list is still reasonably long, it doesn't push it to the point of envy / bitterness / etc. It's still a high score list after all Also, there's a bit more of a sense of achievement if you can't make killer scores, but still do good enough to make it into the table. You don't get that if the table just lists pretty much anything. All imho etc ofcourse.

I finally got the ALL tonight! Seems I should have been using the 2P all along.
MANIAC MODE (RAPID FIRE):
298,794,069 - TWE - ALL (Lx0) - PS2 - [A+2, C+2]
A pretty good run outside of S2 and S4, I had 2 deaths on S2 and only about 10 mil for the stage, I usually get about 40 mil! I died on the midboss, hence the huge drop in the score. I went on to get my best S3 ever in this run with 165 mil (and no miss). I also got a 120,000 counter after the S5 midboss which I kept going for a bit before I died near the end. Too bad I couldn't finish with any extra lives. Now to break 300 mil, and then 400 and 500. I'll probably stop after 500.
