12 digits!
I had really stupid chain breaks in 1-4 and 1-5 though, so the score could have been a lot higher.

I can't WAIT to get back home and try to beat this!
Thanks for giving me a challenge, RLRBS!

Yeah Erppo I watched your video the other day and the later part of it a few more times it's really nice solid stuff you did, it looks cool with your C-Type style. 2-4 and 2-5 full chains are sexy. There are various spots that I find pretty damn cool that look fun to play. The score is pretty damn high too ! Do you plan to improve on that ?

I have actually recently bought myself a keyboard adapter (XIMEdge) for XBOX360 + the game to be able to play it in the near future. I don't have the console itself yet and I'm going to need something to hook it up to my PC equipment as well since I don't have a TV, so it's going to take some time but you should see me pop in with some A-Type Power scores within a few weeks or months depending on how fast I get the stuff and how well it works for me. I can already tell with pretty high confidence that I will stick to A-Type Power no matter what.

If I really like the game and it is convenient enough for me to practice on the XBOX then I think in time I will want to try and beat your score. That's what's on my mind but at the same time I realize it is too early to say something like that since that is a very high score. I like that you do it without milking too, and as much as I can if I get really into the game I will be avoiding any milking as well since I am not interested in that. We'll see what happens !

I hope that you see my possible coming into the game as a possible enjoyable challenge rather than a pretentious shout out, as that is what it honestly is for me and I know that I don't know what's going to happen next. If things go well maybe we can battle it out at the top and burn ourselves trying to do just a little better than the other, as I have often dreamed it would happen with other DDPs. And with different, opposite ships too :)

Thanks. I'm currenty on a break from the game trying some other things I've wanted to do but I know that I will be coming back to it. It would be a waste to leave it entirely considering how much knowledge I have accumulated in it and I'm still somewhat unhappy with couple of things in that run. With my current routes I would max somewhere around 750 billion but there are many parts that could be improved. 1-5 could be optimized, 2-2 could be chained (!), 2-3 start has better methods and 2-5 has room for various improvements (and it's the only stage where I still use safety hypers).

Competition does sound interesting, especially since we feel same about the boss milking. I'm sure I will rather stop playing when that's the only place left to improve. Good luck and I hope you like the game enough!

Unless someone else really wants to do it, I think I'm hijacking this thread because of moozooh's complete disappearance from the Internet.

E: Went and did it. New updated thread here: http://shmups.system11.org/viewtopic.php?t=45588
