Hello Teamliquid, I have made this thread for those interested in joining a TeamLiquid Touhou competition. I realize there is already a Touhou thread, but the main thing that is discussed there is music, and a competition thread like this should probably stay separate from that thread.
Introduction to Touhou
+ Show Spoiler +For those of you that don’t know, Touhou is a series of games where you control a character that flies on the screen and shoots enemies while dodging bullets. People regularly call it a bullet-hell game because of the amount of projectiles that you must dodge. To compensate for the insane amount of bullets on screen, your character has a small hitbox. You earn points by collecting blue score point items as close to the top of the screen as you can (the higher you collect, the more points), staying alive, and defeating bosses without using bombs or losing a life. Bombs grant you temporary invincibility and differ between the different characters you choose. Each game is a little different from the others but most of them follow this general format (at least the ones we’ll be playing in this competition). Controls are Shift (focus attack and slow down), Z (shoot), X (bomb), and Ctrl (skip dialogue). This is what Touhou looks like: + Show Spoiler +
How this will work
The competition starts with the creation of this thread. This will be a competition seeing who can get the highest score for a particular Touhou game and difficulty. Scores have to be gained after the competition is started.
If you would like to join the competition, just submit a replay of any game and difficulty by emailing me it as an attachment (Epishade@gmail.com). I will add your replay and score to the leaderboards as soon as I can.
Rules/Regulations
1. Name your replay after your TeamLiquid profile. If it doesn’t fit, abbreviate it so I can at least tell who it is. If you abbreviate, please tell me your full profile name as well in the email.
2. If you submit a replay, and it is an old replay, not done during the time of the competition, or is not named after your TeamLiquid profile, I will not add it.
3. You can submit more replays if you play through the game again and receive a higher score.
Support for those who have questions/trouble
+ Show Spoiler +For trouble getting the games to work, I have 2 suggestions. Download DirectX to your computer. It’s basically software used for people who make Windows games that will allow you to run Touhou. My other suggestion is to change your system locale to Japanese. To do this, go to Control Panel - Clock, Language, Region - Regional and Language Options - Administrative - Change system locale... Japanese. This is for Vista and it might be slightly different on other Operating Systems. If you still can’t get the games to work, post below and maybe someone can help you.
For those wanting to join, but don’t have the games, send me a pm.
How to watch replays: Click on the cell containing the replay and highlight the cell description "URL" near the top. Copy with ctrl + c. Paste in browser URL. Download replay. Find replay in Winrar and move that replay file to the replay folder of the respective Touhou game.
I also recommend, before playing the game, to check out the Touhou wiki and look up how the specific game works, and what strategies or characters you might want to use for that game.
Feel free to discuss your replays, someone else’s replays, suggestions, observations or w/e in this thread. If I get a larger turnout than I expect, I may appoint someone to help. Likewise, if nobody joins, I’ll probably can this project or transfer ownership.

Definitely joining! Atm, I'm trying to 1cc hard mode and clearing an extra stage. Except I can't get replays to work. I tried saving a replay in game, but the file never appears in the replay folder in the rar. I get error messages saying the volume cannot be modified or whatever, does that have something to do with it?
edit: nvm got replays to work, turns out I was too dumb to extract the files from the rar into a folder...

I'm not quite sure how to fix this problem. I've never gotten replay saving errors or volume errors. All I could recommend is to redownload the games to see if that works.

Haven't seriously touched a Touhou game in about a year but I'll give it a shot 
Any particular reason why no extra stages?
|
no IaMP
Only thing I can actually play lol

Extra stages require you to beat the game on normal with no continues? I think. Since some people are not able to do this, I left them out.
Also updated the leaderboard with your score.
|
people can just get the score data to unlock the extra stages
|
Hey this is a cool idea, I might have to try playing again.
There's no order on your spreadsheet though, should be ranked from highest to lowest, meaning you would probably have to redo the format that it looks like you have atm

I'm not very good, but I love Touhou and this is cool
Trying to make my first 1CC ;_; iz so hard

Haha, I have trouble making it too. I often have to redo a lot of my playthroughs because I die like 2-3 times in a row to something stupid. But again, doesn't matter if you're good or not. A lot of people are saying that they are not good so they don't want to join, but being bad at this game is probably normal for most people.
|
I'm as rusty as a rusty doorknob. Time to pick up 11 again, serious training time gogogo.
edit: Oh god the person below me is scaring me lol XD I can only do normals and some hards and extras, that's my limit :X, Lunatic is a whole other ballgame D:

I'll submit some runs I love touhou. Can't wait till we get to Subterranean Animism Lunatic.

I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean. I ranked it from lowest to highest (ie. Touhou 6 first, Touhou 13 last). I did it this way based on the order of the series (usually you start with the beginning and go up), and also because I believe 6 is a little easier than the other games and would be good to start with. Are you saying you want it to be ranked Touhou 13 first and then Touhou 6 last, or did I misunderstand?
|
Ha my run was so messy. Died to Rumia, Patchy, and 3 times to Sakuya lmao.
|
Awesome, I'll give this a shot tonight!
|
Seeing this many people show interest in this is awesome!
I gave another attempt tonight (gotta beat Triflux ), got about 83~ million. Once I'm done with midterms tomorrow evening I'm gonna give it some more serious attempts, lots of room to improve

I mean the players' scores
Epishade, Imbajoe, Vestrel, and Triflux's scores aren't in the order of highest points. It should be sortable, no? Maybe you should have a separate sheet for each game so you can sort more easily. 1st 2nd 3rd etc... you have that currently but this way it would make it easier to see 4th and on.
|
This is tougher than I remember.. I even died on Rumia. > Touhou 6 is my least played touhou..
I've managed to beat all the games on easy before, but only ever cleared mountain of faith and imperishable night on normal, and MoF was 1 time after a couple weeks of practice. I'm nowhere near lunatic playing level :D

I can't record replays in EoSD for some reason. It's the only one though, I know i can in the others.
Can I enter anyway ?

Well, to submit your score, you'll need a replay. You can submit for the other games once they unlock though. Maybe try re-downloading EoSD and seeing if that works?

Ah I see what you mean now. It probably should be sorted in order of highest score to lowest, instead of it being whoever joins up first being listed first like it is now. Granted, I'm not a master in excel/google spreadsheet so I'm exactly sure how to do automatic sorting based on scores while still keeping the replays and names in order. I'll look into it though.

I guess I'll wait for the other games then.

Oh man, my brother is obsessed with these games, utterly obsessed. Do they have English versions/

If you find the right one, it sometimes usually has the english patches already installed. At least, that's how I did mine.
|
Interesting... I've never had that happen for me. Well, in any case, the resources for the English patches are here now, if anyone needs access to them.
|
I can't even beat imperishable night iirc.... (I get up to the 4th stage where you fight either reimu/marisa... and die) lol
and iirc people say imperishable night is the easiest of the touhou games
Derp (Ten desires I get around 2-3 stages in and need to spam continues until I die too... 12.8... Lawl)

for those who are new, there is a patch separate from the English translation patch called the Vsync patch. It bascially reduces the input lag in the earlier Windows games. I'll try to find a link when I get home

Great idea, hurray! The touhou community is like in slo-mo right now because there's not much to discuss or play together.

Wow, this helps out a ton. Thanks for this!
|
It's been way too long... so many unused bombs
|
Wonder if this will finally be my motivation to 1cc UFO lunatic when that unlocks. It's still the one thing I haven't done.
Also was disappointed by the lack of bonus points after stage 5 - thought I was going to be able to take the lead but ended up a little short
Edit: Also wtf at the world record for EOSD easy. Certainly there was going to be room for improvement, but I'd never have thought it was possible to score almost 2x what I did. MATSU OP
|
That's a cool idea ! Gonna pick those game again to see if i can beat my previous runs.
IIRC EOSD is not the easiest one... if you play the game without a Hitbox patch, it can be quite brutal at times. Still have bad memories of Sakuya trying to knife me from all directions
|
Great idea!
I'll be trying some runs, just the motivation I need to try a little harder.
|
Ok, took me a while but I updated the leaderboards now. Takes me about 4 minutes for each replay haha. I've also been thinking about making a few changes to this competition. Should I re-lock games after we are through with them? It would be easier for me if we just stuck with a single game at a time then having people submitting scores for any game that has been unlocked. I would think that maybe when we start some mode on the next game, I will lock the previous game so that no new scores can be submitted. It would be a pain to have to change Touhou 6 while we are on Touhou 11 or something, and then have someone notice that they got knocked out of first place by the new score.

I'm fine with either way, it might be an interesting idea to tryout, and if it's easier for you to have games lock, that should be taken into account. The connotation I get from "TeamLiquid Touhou Leaderboards" is that its simply the the best player for that mode, and setting a time limit on that adds another dimension that may be good or bad for competition, but really isn't part of the game.
At the very least, I don't think locking a game when the next game easy mode becomes available is a good idea. If I understand your time schedule correctly, that would leave less than a week for Lunatic runs, which should be given plenty of time for people to play.
Another thing to consider is that if we set games/modes to be locked at some determined date, then that might encourage individuals to hold onto a new top score until the the last day before submitting so that other people don't have the ability see and try to specifically beat that, which would somewhat ruin the feel and fun of this type of competition. This could be worked around by making a rule that you have to submit a run within a couple of days of the score being obtained, going by the date on the replay. Just something to consider.
I'm also in favor of adding in extra modes 
|
I agree with Imbajoe that 1 week for posting Lunatic scores is pretty short, but some of the other choices have the games open for longer than probably necessary (particularly the easy modes, which could be open as long as 2 months if the final option is chosen)
My proposal would be to have 1 game open at a time and let people submit scores for any difficulty during that time (say, 1 month). Then, once the next game opens up, stop accepting scores for the previous one.
I definitely like the suggestion of requiring replays to be sent in within a short time of them being created (a day or so). If you just spent 25 mins on a runthrough, surely you can spare another minute or two to ship the replay off then as well.
Finally, it might be worth considering preventing Lunatic-level players such as myself from filling the top of the Easy and Normal leaderboards to make the races more interesting for newer players (or perhaps there are other ways to group scores to accomplish the same). Not sure what a fair way to do this would be, though. Obviously, all these choices are completely up to you, though - and don't be afraid to prioritize running it in a way that is most convenient for you. We're just happy to be participating at all :D
|
Darn I don't know how you guys are getting 90mil+. I thought my run was really good but I only came up with 67mil. :/
|
@plasmastorm Depending on time and graze, that will be a huge boost. The more you graze, the greater your potential score will be.

This might be a no-brainer but a large part of scoring (aside from grazing, star items, etc) is beating spell cards as quickly as possible and getting the bonus from them and getting to the POC as often as possible, especially in stage 4. There might be parts in stage 4 where you might be reluctant to get up there but getting all the items is easier than you might think in easy mode. Your replay isn't uploaded I think so idk if that's the case for you. Check out the replays to see what I mean.
|
Yeah I think the grazing is what I am missing primarily. I captured most of the spell cards, but I looked at Imbajoe's replay and on stage 3 he's 700+ graze while I was ~175. That's a huge difference, I'll have to try again with a focus on grazing this time.

Actually, the grazing doesn't make as huge an impact since the bonus is only multiplied by 0.5. I got around 99 million a few hours ago, and for stage 3 I only got like 300 graze and the score difference between my run and Imbajoe's wasn't too big.
Here's how your bonus score is calculated.
+ Show Spoiler + Stage x 1000 (stage number, Extra = 7)
Power x 100 (power level)
Graze x 10 (graze count)
This combined total is then multiplied by the number of point items collected in that stage.
In addition, if you are not playing on Easy and the stage happened to be the last stage, the following is added:
Player x 3,000,000 (lives in stock, not including your current one)
Bomb x 1,000,000 (bombs in stock)
Finally, depending on the conditions you played under, the result is multiplied by these modifiers, rounded down to the nearest 10:
4 Initial Lives: x 0.5
5 Initial Lives: x 0.2
Easy Difficulty: x 0.5
Normal Difficulty: x 1.0
Hard Difficulty: x 1.2
Lunatic Difficulty: x 1.5
Extra Difficulty: x 2.0
edit: Yeah, nvm what I said about grazing. Grazing + star items = much higher score.
|
Awesome Idea! Looking forward to pick up the games again.
Even though you have to unlock the Extra stages, hope you rethink about adding them. ESoD and IM Extras are 2 good.

I thought about this idea at first, but I feel that for people that aren't that good at the game, it would probably be a bit better to start everyone out on easy mode and let those players work on the easiest difficulty. Then, by the time lunatic mode unlocks, they would be a bit better at the game.

I like this suggestion. I had the same thoughts about locking games eventually in that some players would hold onto their scores and submit right before it locks. Your solution works perfectly though. I'm gonna edit the op to include this.
So, I'll have to change it so that games lock (according to the poll) when easy mode for 2 games ahead is unlocked. I'll also have to edit the rules so that you have to submit a replay within 48 hours of it being obtained.
Also, just for my clarification: If someone submits a replay for normal mode without using any continues, and someone else downloads that replay, does Extra mode unlock? Am I correct in that it is normal mode without any continues, or is it a different difficulty or you can use 1 continue or what? I might end up unlocking extra mode at the same time as lunatic mode in this case.
Edit: I received an email giving me a replay that is the current Touhou 6 easy mode high score (112699010) from "SPM". I don't know who this is on TL and a forum search didn't clear that up. Maybe I did it wrong idk, but if he doesn't have a TL account, should he be allowed to join? Up to you guys.
|
I'm alive. I registered before sending the email and thought I would show up, but I guess not.
I think the Extra unlock via replay watching only applies to MoF...but I might be wrong. Perhaps it only works towards unlocking stage practice.

Yeah that would be nice, especially if they are gonna come and demolish everyones' scores.
Completely forgot about normal opening up, gonna try some today

I'm getting absolutely killed on normal mode lol. I finally managed to make it to stage 3 but I died to cirno 3 times and lost it immediately. I felt proud though. That same game I managed to beat SPM's first stage score (I got around 9 million compared to SPM's 7.8). I tried saving it but the game crashed. Turns out (at least for me) you can't overwrite replays without a crash. I have to delete the replay from the folder and then save mine in the slot.
|
Just a heads up for people who haven't checked the OP recently: I'll offer the same type of prize as Epishade for second place so there's still hope to claim a crappy custom-made drawing for yourself. I'll also sit out on some of the difficulties or something since it's not really nice for a lurker to butt in like that.
Grazing is sort of big since its influence on the star item value is crazy good in comparison to the other games, and the source of scoring from other factors is pretty low for this game anyway.
|
SPM, have you been able to 1cc lunatic on any of them? Just curious as to what skill level you're at with such nice scores.
|
I have a 1CC on all the Windows games (excluding the fighters), but not with every shot type and not necessarily with flying colors. I usually hang out on Normal, and even then it's been limited to a select few games. I'll try something special when I find myself in familiar territory.
Edit: Hello, Chronopolis!
|
I can only 1CC the Fighting Games (well just IaMP)
;_;
|
Hehe, for only the second time in my life I died during the after-flash of the final boss (The other time was Okuu). Blasphemy. You have no idea how silly it is to see Remelia explode from pressing the continue button.
|
Been pretty busy this past week and I haven't been able to get a really good score yet. I'm too score oriented and I die repeatedly to a bunch of stupid mistakes. Maybe I should try ignoring score entirely and focusing on survival. Maybe that's what I should have made this competition about. Just list all the people that made it to the end lol. It might dumb down the game a bit, but I think more people would have been willing to join if all they had to worry about was survival.
Maybe when this competition ends, I might start another one ignoring score.

I like this idea too. When the new competition starts, I'll probably make it like this. That might not be for a while though. It will most likely be for when this competition ends - I'll start another one, or when just about everyone stops submitting scores for this one (which I think will probably happen pretty soon idk) - I'll make another competition maybe a month or two afterwards. Can't start another Touhou comp. right after the one before it dies.

Is this still going, haven't seen any movement in google docs. If so I may participate on select difficulties as I just recently picked up Touhou again .
|
It is technically still going, but I think it's pretty much dying out/going to be dead by next week. I just don't think we have that large a Touhou following on TeamLiquid to sustain a tournament like this. If you want, I'll still maintain the leaderboards and everything, but I probably won't be submitting my own scores.
|
Yeah, I expected the turnout to dwindle after the first wave of submissions, but it dipped much faster than I expected. I still don't know how much I'm at fault for showing up. I decided to sit back and see if anything would be submitted in the newer categories if I didn't show my face, but...too late now I guess. A few more days and I'll put forth that special effort, and then I don't know what future lies for this thread.
|
I'm still around, just been busy as as hell haha. The little time I have been playing Touhou was mostly extra attempts. Score runs are quite frustrating xD I'll probably submit some scores sometime this weekend or something. And you showing up, SPM, didn't affect me at all so no worries
|
i think you should just open up all the games and keep this as a high score kinda thing

I was making quite a few attempts on EoSD normal, that's why I wasn't submitting anything for eosd hard or lunatic.

Agree, just open it up so anyone can submit a score for anything, then you'll see more activity.

omg I'm so noob at this XD

you should run tournaments for Touhou Hisoutensoku as it is easier to pit people against each other there XD

Very well, looks like I'll have to make a lot of changes to the OP. I'll open up all the games and we'll just keep this as the official Teamliquid Touhou high-score leaderboards.

Are those the fighting games? I'm not too sure how I would run a competition like that. I don't really know enough about the fighting games to make a TL competition around them. Maybe eventually in the future, but I'm probably not the right person to make a thread regarding it.

We did a soku tourney on tl vpn. It started I think 3 monthes ago. Still hasn't finished.

Are you guys located relatively close to each other? I remember trying to play with someone on the other side of NA before and even that lag was more than I'd like to handle

Oh wow. This is pretty cool.
|
sick nasty time to get some records

Nice job! 
Also, any chance we could get extras included in here as well? I finally beat EoSD and PCB extra stages. :D
|
I suppose I can add a spreadsheet for extras. But I'm going to keep it separate from all the rest of the spreadsheets that hold easy-lunatic on them just for ease of making.
Also, one thing I just did was hook up an xbox controller to my computer that I've been using to play Touhou with. Not working out too well but has anyone else tried different controls other than the keyboard?
|
Yeah, I play on PS2 pad. I know a lot of people can only play shmups on stick. Keyboard is technically the most precise though.

I live in BC, while most of the others are from Toronto. The only times there are lag is when one player is clearly on a laggy connection or forgets to turn off a torrent. Otherwise, with two people on decent connections connecting to each other through the vpn, the games should be completely lag-free.
