Well I'm not really new the board, but for some reason I've done almost zero gaming over the last year (8 months? some unreasonably long time). But I'm basically starting off from scratch, so I might as well introduce myself as such.
So what to say? Uh my attention span is too short, so I'm going back to giga wing

Good morning, the metal device head! Being reduced in your zero, us the manly spirit of the wing of the mighty giga which is current here which you worry exactly you do not use Shmups11.org wastefully! Data load from Shmups11.org will prostitute play half experience Internet which reaches to the galaxy where we are most distant in order to come having fact and having input value!

Now, the jockey of the import which shoots stench, be careful! He smiles with your skin surface, tries the fact that the cash and prize are removed next exactly from visa for the thermal kicking and your bill tray of the master card! However, Shmups11.org is mean when handling the trick which becomes dirty when you become educated, import of hatred becomes your mortgage! He the seller will look like he is dropping to his knees to give you the oral pleasure!

He has now become your young pie, so feast like a Snickering candy bar!

In addition hygiene is big problem to shmupper. You raise the circle of love, warrior? If you wash with that vat of the vinegar, as for sweet oil level donkey of your rear end; So it sustains; The smell of it is like that of Walt Disney! The attempt which does not bother your brain on that asserts your right exactly to be the clean person, dork!

The well wish is that all shmuppers praise machine device head for connecting to Shmups11.org through the internet, the place where suction cups are secure sockets!

Shoot down those obese alien human excrements, Machine Device head! Go!

So, I just noticed I have never introduced myself.

I started playing shmups in 2008, after watching the great "HARDEST BOSS EVER" youtube video, so it's been almost 2 years now, and I lurked here for a while before creating an account.
Last year I did a lot of Touhou playing until lunatic practicing got too time consuming and I couldn't conciliate it with work and wife.
Since I bought a J-360 I've been buying Cave games like there's no tomorrow but unfortunately I still don't have the time I wish I had to practice.
I've conquered my first arcade 1ccs recently and plan to keep showing the games to as many friends as possible.

When Imagnet arrived to Shmups11.org looking at that the hardest boost that was ever made smooth, .....It is not necessary for you to cry in fear. Having lain hidden, and incomprehensibility, you must lie hidden in mist, it is the corner where the limit outside dampens? Something should make the cave player more skilled, right magnet-head?

Is your lip now very hot?

Death is not escaped, Magnet-head...understand. Shmups11.com shares your pain when your shmuppy hands are put into the water which becomes cold in order to control the joint of the naked finger which has been attached strengthens the small unit.

Now the false buyer and the stand of the game of import for excessive dollar the dubbing which has done to die doing the import dealer and the spear tournament on the horse are done, he thinks that we would like to look at your visa and master card in order to complete the lynch of your wallet. That small import dealer you are inspecting, will laugh with yell! Shmups11.org is there to be ammunition in order to obtain a fair transaction, therefore what is that? It is the thick skull where those have attached that to the body? Now with your penis, the scum sack is dampened, call out to him! We bet he won't answer!!!

This time as for other news it is more private, your roughness is included. As for being seated between playing long term to make the negative smell send out of making the old tennis shoes one remember on your bottom it is possible that you were playing DDP. A certain convenient wipe the clump and deluxe the chemical liquid make your rear section clean.

The clean loafing person is the happy loafing person!

Shmups11.org which is connected to corns of your contribution to the Internet and our methods of imperial appreciates shmups and welcome to the thing which you tried! When you are pleasant, until it was passed, the controller and the game, Imagnet will be a good learner!

Now you take, and you do!

Hello, my name is Splitt442 and I'm a Shmup-a-holic... *Hi Splitt!*

Though I played shooters through out my childhood in arcades and on my NES/ Genesis, my habit spiraled out of control in 2004 with Ikaruga. Scrubbing my way through the bi-polar skies, I started to remember just how much I loved the genre.

Most recently, I purchased Slap Fight MD for the Mega Drive so I can begin my attempt of 1cc'ing the complete Toaplan library.

Look at Shmups11.org in here!

Flamemore and Tore442 wants to come through the door! Shmups11.org praises glory week returning from the United States in Japan, then the shooter crosses the sea whose Great Britan is large, but slow and welcomes the members whose load is in the shmuppy goodness! Exactly, like Obama where the billions of money is over-used, therefore plug your nose with the visa and master card which has been attached to the shmups of purchase!

Didn't you know?

Don't let the dishonest dealer of import shmups mortgage your wallet...Shmups11.org makes the purchase of shmups as smooth as a prostitute's hooters, because we supply knowledge, the point and the smooth data position to which Shmups11.org's argument is concentrated in order to make easy purchases on ebay are a given...so wipe the sweat from your arm pit, warrior! Being thrown out under the import trader of shmups, do not pull your free delivery mails with respect to already high price!

The stupidity of the fool!

This time, we have a quick-tempered subject, as for noobs...it comes here. Without dampening your human flesh, press the halt button on your Cave game while you are sitting down. Use the smooth towel from the toilet for the man so your crew won't be offended...make it happen! Scale your rear section which rubs down the dime, which requires your reverse side to be shown. To be introduced by Shmups11.org, Tear442, and Burningmore...try to mingle in many attempts other people. Push your child into the bed, do your wife so she won't say, "Stay"!!! Because in the den is next where you'll go, while taking time to switch clothing, and starts playing with X Crate 360 and PS3!

With respect, say good morning to your stick!

Hi Everyone!

Post #2 here :) Thought I would introduce myself. I've been playing video games starting out on my old Apple IIc and shooters are one of my favorite genres. I love classics like Thunder Force 2 on the Genesis, Life Force on the NES and Silpheed on the PC. I just picked up a Sega Astro City and I'm getting back into playing shooters starting with 1944 the Loop Master. It looks like I have missed out a lot of the newer shooters, the most recent I have played is Ikaruga. I have many games to catch up on!

You've been to the shmup store already?

Scoop your hand in the sugar candy of shmup which has been attached to your private area, Meta Human!

As for the healthy grapes, we greet and embrace meta human, and carry him to our forums called Shmups11.org! Does meta human embrace the game of the refined thunder power 2 where the fruit above has been attached as the wheel? If not, then your life needs more supervision!

As for Shmups11.org, we are mixing meta human's feeble technology in order to give him the upper hand with shmups of his selection.

Now concerning the import dealer with the head of the stone...we warn the fact that when your Visa of Mega trophy and Mastercard gets stuck, we here at Shmups11.org supplies the technical data and shoelace information in order to blow the small secret where it became dirty in your ear.

Pay attention!

Wash your glutamate area with shmup soap, because the smell you make is like the very hot rubber inside some tin foil. As for meta human, you are as welcome as bacon flavored gum which can require a punch the gut! So keep the trash going and the foreign country of the game, fretful person!

You drop!

Figured I would introduce myself. I've been lurking these forums for almost a year now, I believe someone from Shoryuken's forum linked me here. The helpful threads for import J360 games tipped me into getting a Japanese 360 last year for Deathsmiles (didn't think it had a snowball's chance in hell getting published in the US at the time). Lots of great info and discussion on this forum and I thank everyone who has contributed.

Hello!; I've been reading the forum time to time.

The game that introduced me to the genre was Gradius III, but my paradigm of the genre
would be the Darius series -- nowadays I play everything that comes into my hands.

Nevertheless... that's all; do svidaniya.

Hello! Suppose I should stop lurking for a minute to introduce myself. I've been gaming since the early NES days, and while I've played shmups here and there over the years I didn't really start to get into them until recently with the likes of Raiden III and Raiden Fighters Aces, for example. I'm planning to get a J360 later this summer; till then I'll be staring at my copy of Deathsmiles II X and playing Deathsmiles I when that comes out in the US.

Anyhow, I really like the community here, and am glad to become a part of it!

Present magnificent down syndrome!

Target Vengeance and Lavatory washroom cleaned the house of presentation of the imagination of the space shooter in shmups11.org! Shmups11.org welcomes the fact that you connected yourselves with speed to the Internet like the rabbit of the jack! Lavatory washroom and target vengeance wishes to plunder the seabed like BP...where Obama has spent the billions of EUROS to plant the flag of North Korea! How regrettable!

Meanwhile Warriors, we point to data acquisition, and make the production of the knowledge of shmup for your private gland which expands in order to understand smooth bits of information!

Now to the kind pastor of whose shmup knowledge is wise word to:

As for the dealer who is NOT your friend of shmups when he tries to dry up your wallet because of his his own selfish behavior speeds up the price of import games of specification with the Visa and Debit Mastercard....epic fail is he. Because shmups11.org inspected your heart, it rescued you from perplexity, the dealer that now that by his own mistake tries to cover despicably, would now like to offer you the work which expands in your pants!

How stupid can the epic failer of foolish deeds be?

Well, enough philosophy....our sausages must quickly learn to rush over to the PS3 to play Soldner X protoplasm 2! If it relaxes, that shmup of many should be coming out!

Welcome to hell of the continent of bullet, Lavatory washroom and Target Vendetta!

Go plunk!

Amish Priest! It is regrettable that I let your lucid post escape! I still don't understand why people continue to be lain hidden in the thicket of nettles? There is no necessity which hides from shmups the edge of invasion and like the NES system. Shmups11.org can pour oil in your gray matter and do shmups in there!

Therefore because you received cool help from us....we included lunch where the worst hero polishes magical errand with the sandpaper which was eaten, your noodle you continue to play with to fix the system that permits you to play the game. The priest of high score and Amish group shows that we have it in us!

Don't say Shmups11.org did not inform about your method escapes around the thief of import and don't say Shmups11.org did'nt save your visa or mastercard, because that thing does not sell itself! Time is allotted and is not said the use condoms saves you from the dishonest import seller ebay! Grab your weapon, Amish person...do come and shoot!

Shmups11.org begs it!

I've been lurking this forum for months now and I think I should introduce myself. Hi, my name is sirmax and it all begun when I did an LetsPlay on "I Wanna Be the Guy". No, wait, thats quite not true, I loved R-Type on the GameBoy when I was a kid. Anyways, after I became the guy, I wanted to letsplay another hard game. Because I had absolutely no idea which game, I simply googled "hardest videogame boss" and stumbled upon one youtube-video (I assume you know which one I mean). I was so impressed that wanted to know more about the genre and so I asked a friend of mine, who introduced me to Ikaruga, if he'd know anything. Unfortunately he did not. Then I finally started doing research on my own, landed here and, well, started lurking.

By now I played (besides R-Type and Ikaruga) some of the x.x doujin-shmups (I really like BWR+ and Edens Edge), some of Kenta Cho's stuff like rRootage and Cho Ren Sha 68k and a lot of Battle Bakraid lately.

I guess that should be enough.

Sir Maximum greeting! You welcome Shmups11.org in the house where prostitutes are soaked with male fluids!

No one gave you a pointed stick yet? Is doughnut shmups of You Tube steak your little private Idaho? You arrived at the right place of the internet's entrance! The skillful spiritual state of our games is played here!

The fact that the dishonest import trader of shmups urinates on your foot and tells you that the rain is falling should give you a clue. What is he not saying? The necessity which you fear is not needed Sir Maximum! Protect the smell of your pants because ,the ratio whose interest rate is high, indicates your visa and master card! Head imitation won't discourage that potato head, so look to us before becoming the dune where he has attached himself to your wallet! After Shmups11.org is done with him he will know child abandonment...and his new employment will be blowing air into your urethra!

At this time, we are going to perplex your stomach with news of raw materials...It goes like this:

Playing shmups for long periods of clock ticks can make your cheeks of arse radiate odor like that of moose droplets. Use the BP dispersant of petroleum on the outflow of the bay, which has been attached to Obama with the expense of trillions to the Japanese Yen! While your loafing around the house with the grass uncut, your wife does not want to smell that crap!

Ok, with that, all people in shmups11.org which is the highest internet on the web, do protect Sir Maximum! Please make the mosquito net roofing safe over Sir Maximum, because if it doesn't, the rear section of his skin surface won't be worth squat!

Now drop and give me 50 cents, soldier!

I am a long time lurker of this site and have always found these forums to be a wealth of information. I figured it was high time I actually joined in on the best forum on the web dedicated to my favorite genre, so here I am.

I have a modest shmup collection and am only a mediocre player, but that doesn't mean I don't enjoy and appreciate the genre immensely. I am 30 years old and have fond memories of shmups dating back to playing Parsec on a TI-99/4A with my grandparents when I was very young. I have really begun to dedicate serious play time to the genre in the past 5-6 years, though I haven't made the jump to owning any cabs yet (just console stuff for me thus far). Some of you may know me from elsewhere...I am the podcast host over on racketboy.com and a moderator there as well. I also hang out on CheapAssGamer pretty regularly, though mostly on the trading section. Anyway, I hope I can add something to what goes on here, although I probably will just continue to learn from all of you for the time being. Glad to be officially on board.

I now welcome well in vision of the eye of green energy! The fossil fuel are not used because of our ships with shmups11.org, but it verifies that in order to give power to our jet aircraft in substituting we walk boldly while stomping chipmunks!

As for Shumps11.org you like the petroleum outflow of BP oil of disaster after connecting with us, you must feel, the brief power so with the rump the prostitute. The point here is now perhaps now it gives the functional joy: Avoid the rebellious seller of the shmup juice, in order for your visa and master card to be able cause chaos field, with him like the demon these evil sellers reach for your buttocks where your wallet is kept! It was raised if this the ebay method of paypal shop it may, it does, from the urgent movement separated the way, you are not moved!

This is the rammer of the importance!

Sometimes the new shmupping person becomes the loafing person that does not clean the bottoms of your Calvin Klein panties! The loafing person where everyone becomes dirty, is not what you want! No shmupper here wants to smell your rotting filth while playing the deathsmile or the Progear shmup...so take time to wipe the rear of your penis!

Being said that, if octopussy wants to, we welcome him as long as he follows the one rule thing of shmup, which is to never urinate on a pod cast!!

Your boat power field, Pod of Octo, protect the soldiers of shmup love!
