...why wouldnt a vampire want to make it eternally nighttime? No more pesky sun to worry about.

[heydude6]

I believe it was sarcasm

[Akura]

Then again, Remilia has been shown to be able to survive in sunlight for short periods of time, and her plan in EoSD was to simply block out the sun - not make it permanently night. And only then because she was too lazy to carry a parasol around.

Bioshock 2.

[IronTomato]

Spent a day building a massive ship.

Turns out it both looked terrible and barely functioned. It was also too narrow, too deep, and too large.

This could be so many games

[Rolan7]

Detective work suggests that it's probably From The Depths, with a 10% chance of Kerbal Space Program.

I've discovered that the Insect Glaive is best when fighting monsters that either move slowly or don't move very often. As in, not when you're fighting a Velocidrome backed up by Kecha Wacha and you've already used your last potion.

I've also learned to never bring anything less than the max amount of regular and Mega Potions.

If a fight is particularly tough and you can spare the Item Pouch space, consider bringing 10 honeys and a Book of Combos or two. That way, you have 20 max potions.

Also, are you familiar with Dung Bombs? You can make a bomb casing using a Sap Plant and iron ore or stone (the former is recommended due to the possibility of creating more casings) and a dung bomb using dung (you can find it in piles in most places, typically near one of the spots weak monsters retreat to) and a bomb casing. Throw it at a monster to make it run away and leave you in peace, which is very handy when there's two monsters on the map.

[itisnotlogical]

I keep meaning to bring some along, but if I forgot to make potions before an expedition then that leaves little hope of remembering anything else.

I thought the bomb casings were for traps, but I guess they're for the hand-thrown bombs. I kept trying to use huskberries for that purpose and ending up with bowgun ammo I'll never use.

After getting my face pushed in by Ran and her Fluffytail Cage of Doom, I decided to try something else and went with Team Scarlet in IN. So instead I got my face pushed in by Reisen and her bullshit "hypnosis" time freezing. Which is definitely a quantifiably different gimmick then Sakuya and Youmu's time freezing. Yay Stage 5 bosses being different~! I then decided to try Team Netherworld and promptly regretted it. Not only does Youmu's half-ghost nature make the H/Y meter even more complex, but her familiar is utter shit and Yuyuko does the OPPOSITE of what I want focussing to do. I then tried Reimu/Yukari. And IMMEDIATELY noticed a difference. Apparently REIMU gets the seeking projectiles in this game, and the Yukari/Ran laser combo is quite nice too. And I swear I get a larger window for the Last Spell thing with those two, but I might just be getting better with timing. Marisa isn't AS annoying a Stage 4 boss as Reimu, but the combination of sparklez+lazerz nonetheless alternately makes me want to barf or cry. I stagger past her, mostly because of Last Spells and then get dunked on by Reisen.

Don't you know that in the tohou universe, there is a city on the moon called the lunar capital that is populated by lunar rabbits? It plays an important role in the later games.

I do not consider this a spoiler because you don't learn this information in-game.

[The Ensorceler]

And that, in turn comes from older Japanese stories of moon rabbits who hit rice with large mallets to produce mochi. I assume the more urban rabbits of the lunar capital have diversified their economy somewhat since then.

[hops]

It's originally Chinese mythology, you scrubs.

[AzyWng]

Osu!: Mouse + habit of leaving my mouse elbow on the table = slow mouse movement speed (for Osu!) = Unable to do most 3+ star tracks and even some 2 star tracks.

Taiko: Whenever I slip up, I keep making mistakes. (Consistently tapping red instead of blue)

FOR THE REST OF THE SONG!

That ends well.

Osu!Mania: Not very many maps I have have this mode.

THe ones that do are very fast (playing 16th notes on a piano without sheet music is what I think of).

Making a beatmap:

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO DO SEND HELP NOW BEFORE I BUTCHER THIS SONG!

Osu!

Wow, I feel like a dick now. Sorry.

((To be fair, I don't dislike the idea of lunar rabbits. I just thought it was one of those creative silly things))

I guess I stand enlightened then. Wasn't something I was aware of.
