  • Tried to score by grazing and getting point items as much as possible

CasualPokePlayer: Claiming for judging.
CasualPokePlayer: Hello scratchtas, and welcome to TASVideos.
The movie submitted does not appear to be sufficiently optimized for our submission standards. Casually watching the TAS (without any knowledge of Touhou itself), I've noted several things off:
  • In several spots, you wait out the timer and accumulate "graze." However, you don't appear to wait out the timer to its fullest.
  • Also, in many other spots you do not appear to do this at all.
  • Playing back the movie myself, I've also noted you seemed to have fairly suboptimal initial menuing.
Other people, far more familiar with the game, have also noted several optimization issues in the discussion thread.
Ultimately too, this run fails to beat an existing record (under the same rules) by around 750 million points. Several more other records can also be found with a bit of searching which this movie fails to beat.
As horrible as working with Hourglass may be (which I understand completely), we still ultimately require that our movies match/beat existing records, including non-TAS records. As such, I must reject this run.
