Thanks for organising it! I hope everyone else enjoyed it too. I'd played these four games before, but I made big improvements in all of them, which is one of the good things about competitions like this. If ShmupsFarm doesn't get round to organising a tournament in 2014, then hopefully we'll still have a RacketBoy STGT to compete in next year... :)

Big grats to the Columbian Hi-Ballers! You guys rocked it.

Also, a huge thanks to Mike and everyone else that helped organize this.

My performance was terrible, but I found some new love for Mars Matrix and Mushihimesama, so it was worth it. Can't wait for the next one!

Had a great time playing was fun competing. Never really played a ton of Shmups so this was a fresh experience for me. Was also the first time I had really used any emulators.

I had a great time! This was my first time really competing for score on a shmup and aside from a credit feed of both Mars Matrix and Muchi Muchi Pork, I had never played any of these prior to this month. I guess there is more out there than Mushi Futari.

Anywho! Thanks Doc for explaining how to score points in all these games (he even made up videos for Eco Fighters, seriously, this dude went way above and beyond), to Mike and everyone else for setting this all up and to everyone who played! Can't wait until the next one!

I thoroughly enjoyed our friendly competition. (Even if I didn't care too much for most of the games that actually made up the competition.) Thanks to everyone for making it such fun experience. Pretty impressive participation all month long, as well. I'm hoping we'll be doing this again sometime.

Congrats, Hi-ballers. Truly you are as gods.

Was there actually a prize?
