SOMEBODY REMEMBER THE RICK ROLL GUY
WELL THIS IS TOUHOU ROLL

Brought to you by /blue/'s Joy Thread! The tiniest, cleverest commander doesn't get enough love around here, certain contests aside, which is why I've decided to spring this on THP while we're in a contest mood. This obviously has nothing to do with the big annual contest, so don't feel the need to opt out if you're participating, please.

The rules will be pretty similar, but I might as well enumerate them:

1. Anonymous submissions only.
2. There is a hard limit of two (2) posts per submission.
3. Nazrin must be the primary topic of the submission. Failure to meet this criterion will result in disqualification with prejudice.

Since this is a new contest, and a niche one at that, there will only be two categories: SFW (not-porn) and NSFW (porn) shorts. If people express enough concern, the categories may be split between newbies and veterans, but this is what we'll start with. Starting from now, you have until September 29th, 23:00 UTC to post your shorts in the designated threads. Voting will commence immediately after submissions have closed, ending the next week on October 6th at 23:00 UTC. That should give those of you involved with the annual contest enough time.

Please consider submitting something and help spread the joy of Nazrin~

Hello everyone, in an effort to improve the quality of life and activity of the site I have created a convenient userscript for everyone to use.

https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/13233-thpsupplemental

The main idea is to bring all the story boards together onto one page to increase visibility. Thus in turn allow people to write stories on the less active boards and have improved exposure.

Future plans: I'm currently trying to figure out a way to automate a way to see if a story has been updated. Based on the design of the website it will be impossible to have an 100% accurate way to automate it so instead I would like to add features that can catch most of them and then allow the user to manually watch threads they want.

If anyone would like to post comments, requests, or bugs about the script feel free to use this thread.

HEY FAGGOTS GUESS WHAT TIME OF YEAR IT IS AGAIN

ALL SUBMISSIONS MUST BE ANONYMOUS. Non-anonymous posts will be disqualified.

Deadline is 15 September at 23:59 GMT (which, conveniently enough, is what site time is). Any submissions after that will be ignored.

The number of posts you can use maximum is two. MAKE VERY SURE THEY'RE OBVIOUSLY LINKED TO ONE ANOTHER. IN-THREAD LINKS ARE SUGGESTED.

Next, the categories. Veteran/newbie, normal/porn, the usual. We'll be dividing vet/newbie by a simple cutoff: if you've been writing here since before January 1st, you count as a veteran. All others are newbies.

I think you can distinguish between porn/non-porn yourselves.

Judging will be done the same way it was last contest: I will aggregate a list of the entered stories, and everyone will be allowed to vote for a story in each category: that is, non-porn/newbies, non-porn/vets and porn. I'm lumping the porn categories together due to low turnout for newbie porn. Voting will last another week, ending on 22 September at 23:59 GMT.

ZUN just posted some screenshots of Touhou 15.

Looks like it involves the Eintei cast again somehow!

You know what we've gone too long without? A writing contest. You know what I'm about to host? A writing contest. This isn't the 5th Annual Contest, though, so I'm gimmicking things up just a little bit! I've only got three main rules.

First is that ALL ENTRIES ARE ANONYMOUS, no exceptions, you're disqualified if you reveal who you are before the votes are doled out.

The second is a TWO POST LIMIT on entries, although I will be honestly impressed if you somehow surpass that limit. If you do use two posts, make sure they're obviously connected, and consider linking them together in the thread to be absolutely sure.

The third, and the gimmick in question, is that this contest is CROSSOVERS ONLY.

Yep, you read that correctly. I don't care what you write, just so long as it involves some other game or anime or movie or whatever. You'll find I'm a pretty lax judge of what's valid, so long as you don't, say, write something completely in one setting and then just toss in a token reference to the other side of the crossover, in which case I will be very disappointed in you. If you wanted to write something that was Touhou only, well, the annual contest is only a few months away. Write it now and then blitz that contest the minute it opens!

Deadline's the 21st of May at 23:59 GMT, AKA site time, so that gives you a month to do your thing.

The categories are veterans/newbies and normal/smut, as usual. Veterans are defined as anyone who's been writing since August 1st of 2014, coincidentally about the time it's been since the 4th Annual contest. As for voting, I'll handle making the list of all entered stories, and you get one vote per category; that is, newbies/veterans/porn. Like the last Annual contest, I'm merging the porn categories because of relatively low turnout, something I don't think this gimmick will help in the slightest. Voting deadline is the 28th of May at 23:59 GMT, a week after the entry deadline.

So this is a thing. Get hype!

You going to buy the game when it releases over here?

Titled "Urban Legend in Limbo", AKA "2spooky42hoo edition", this game was revealed by ZUN himself in a recent game event. Not much is known about it, except that it will be released sometime in 2015.

Rumors say it will be a "First person exploratory "horror" game" starring Marisa, but they're all but confirmed. Art style seems to belong to Moe Harukawa, the same gal who did the Forbidden Scrollery manga.

Discuss.

SITE'S NOT DEAD

SO LET'S DO THIS AGAIN

As some of you might know, Nanowrimo is next month, November. It stands for "National Novel Writing Month," in which the goal is to crank out a 50k word story in a month. The story will probably be awful.

But we're not going to do that.

No, the challenge I put to you, THP, is to do DAILY UPDATES FOR ALL OF NOVEMBER.

While I didn't succeed last year, Flanders, Kriss, Wander, Moon, Yatagarasu, Waymaker and some random-ass anon all made it (more or less).

SO LET'S FUCKIN' DO THIS

Well everyone, it's just about that time of the year again. Here's a place for posting any plans, photos, musings, etc.

On that note, a reminder that I've pre-ordered tickets for the following 15 individuals. After taxes 'n fees, the tickets were $45 apiece. Please bring a $50, and I'll bring $5 in change:

Rye Bread
Rapestove
Felix Ovum
Artyfag
Ninny
Wander
Solus Lunes
Barkeep
Ursarkar E Creed
BSD
Ghostdivision
Ghost Diva
Demetrious
Kota

I'll be picking up tickets on Thursday night, and thought meeting everyone for breakfast on Friday, like we did last year, would be a great chance to distribute passes. I have everyone's phone number, so I'll send texts to whoever isn't there so they can reply when they arrive. Alternatively, if you're planning to meet up later with someone who was at the breakfast, I'll give your passes to them so they can pass them along.

Does that Ihop a couple blocks from the con sound good to everyone?

Lastly, it'd be nice to have a last get-together on Saturday night for dinner, since people are probably going to leave at varying times on Sunday. Any suggestions for a restaurant? Some nearby places are P.F. Chang's in the shopping center across from the con over Cobb Pkwy, and Carrabba's Italian grill one block further. I can help spot for this if budget is a concern.
