Still progressively becoming more addicted to Touhou...

Soooo... I've started playing Touhou in April (seems so long already ) and I've been totally addicted to it ever since. I've kinda been into hard games before already but Touhou really has to be the greatest of them all. So far, I've played the main windows games only (EoSD, PCB, IN, MoF and SA) but I definitely want to get around to playing the PC-98s, the non-integer ones, the fangames and the Danmakufu-Scripts. My greatest achievement to date is a 1CC Hard in EoSD which was totally infuriating to get. I died like 5-6 times on Scarlet Gensokyo before I made it My favourites in Touhou are the music (Shinmyoumaru's and Byakuren's Themes are some of the greatest stuff I've ever known) and those patterns that require developing a good strategy and after that still a healthy amount of skill to actually pull it off. Downsides are mainly wasting bombs, especially when I having flawless run for 90% of the game and then mess up everything (examples: gameover with 1 spare life and 3 bombs at Red Magic, with 4 spare lives and 3 bombs at the start of Remilia and with 7 spare lives at the start of Utsuho). Yeah, how is some of this even possible?! The reason I registered in this forum now (it's the first time I'm being part of any Touhou community) is because I was searching for Touhou competitions to participate in. Well, that's about it. Up to fun times with you all! -Shnippy

Heya, welcome to the forum! Be sure to check out the Code of Conduct at the top of the page.
You're doing pretty well for yourself with a hard 1cc of EoSD, it's further than a lot of people get. I dunno when the next competition here will be, but I could probably nudge some people if it's requested.
Also, if you want to join our Discord server, hit me up with a PM and I'll give you the invite link. These days, most of our interaction occurs on Discord, though it's in the works to get more activity on the forum itself. I hope you enjoy your time here!

Checked out! Well, do you know (by any chance) more about this "Touhou Game Tournament"? I read about it but I couldn't find any recent information (and I'm pretty sure that I'm capable of using a 'Search'-function). Like, has it started, has it finished, has it been cancelled? I was planning on asking in the corresponding thread but if you knew more about this it would be brilliant as well. Discord? Never used it, though everyone seems to be talking about it. I guess I should look into it then...

Yep. The weird thing is that even though it regularly destroys me moreso than any other Touhou game and it seems to be quite the average Touhou with no particular qualities I still seem to enjoy it the most and I have absolutely no clue why xD

There are better ones, that's for sure. But I prefer it to all other Touhou games, and even a little bit more than DoDonPachi DaiOuJou, which is superior in pretty much everything except music.
