Some really bad news. Chinese Touhou wiki (THBwiki) and other Chinese Touhou websites are down. They are under DDoS attack for around 5 days. The attack is organised, but the goal is still unclear. More info: https://bbs.nyasama.com (+ https://thwiki.github.io/status/ ) To understand how serious it is, imagine if in 2011 MotK, gensokyo.org and Touhou Wiki (and other Western Touhou websites) became down at the same time. At first Nicovideo (main Japanese video hosting) and other Japanese services. Now, Chinese Touhou sites. It seems unrelated, but it is still very strange... Update 1: It is only getting worse... The number of attackers only increases. And I don't know if Western and Japanese fandom can be attacked later like that. We must be prepared. I remember that there were several DDoS attacks on thpatch / thcrap by AI bots. I don't know if it is related. Update 2: Only https://bbs.nyasama.com remained, and even Nyasama is technically down, because it shows only the current status of the attack instead of forum... Also https://www.touhou.cc/bbs/ is down (if I am not wrong, they are not related to THB) Even QQ Touhou related chats are under attack now. (Even some Chinese fans think there is some connection between attack on THB and Niconico) More info: http://c.tieba.baidu.com/p/9079609648 http://c.tieba.baidu.com/p/9084136133 https://c.tieba.baidu.com/p/9084597214 Update 3: Official announce by THBwiki ( https://www.bilibili.com/read/cv36031940/) (discussion: http://c.tieba.baidu.com/p/9084778035 )1 point

[EDIT: Right as I clicked post, Yumetou's comment above showed up "1 minute ago." What a coincidence! But whatever I wrote here might not make sense anymore.] A short post from me today- ...I totally did not expect this XD I thought it would be a flashback to Oscar's old life, but instead his soul (?) is carried away by Elly?! I guess that explains how Oscar ended up in Gensokyo. What now? Excitedly waiting for the next chapter :)1 point

And the readers choose the option I threw in for a laugh. Don't worry, I already have some plans for your chosen branch. Though this may be more of a long-term goal. I haven't gotten beyond the first couple Touhou games (RIP desktop), but my understanding is the Dream World is inhabited by one person (who isn't a dream doppelganger), Doremy. Which is a lot of information most characters don't know, much less Oscar. We still have options though. We can meld the Fantasy World, World of Fantasies etc from the 98 era into the Dream World. Locations with little detail and many superficial similarities, which would tie more characters and entryways to the Dream World. Orrr...time for more OCs. Which I think you'll find more exciting~ We're about to start the next chapter. Hoping to include a 'character sheet' for Oscar when I do, which will give you a rough outline of his skill at each reaction. The next chapter will be focused on Oscar establishing himself in the Human Village. Earning money, starting a business, making friends and enemies, and trying to find out what happened to him. We'll see many faces, some friends reunited or met for the first time. But he will be reuniting and meeting enemies as well. Not all threats however are monsters running wild in the woods. Some can doom you with a few words. Keep your new friends close, and your favorite friends closer. Next, a question for you guys. The GSG I've been trying to walk a fine line with, showing comedy, mystery, wonder and even horror. Its not really meant to be an action or romance game, with what action there is being quick and deadly, and romance (in future) being fleeting yet meaningful. I am curious, would you all be interested in more fanfiction from yours truly? I've characters I had planned for my failed revival of Eientai who I think I could make a story around, which you may enjoy. Though each has very different vibes. I think there's only interest enough for one or two. But if enough people think they would enjoy a second story, I would be happy to write it out when I have time. A pest of a Youkai is newly born in a pit of Sin. But his heart burns with a fire few have ever seen! Driven by his noble spirit, he sets out on a merry quest across Gensokyo in search of true love! With justice in his fists and truth in his heart, can he smite evil and uncover his truest of loves? A story set in the future, around two matured spirits of the past. An unlikely dark knight saves the life of a pale lady. Tying the two together in a tale of young love, gothic opulence and rock 'n roll. Yet even as he seeks her favor, can he prove himself? Not merely to her, or her family and friends, but himself that hard-headed maid? A visiting vampire, on a spirited trip away from her prairie home. Eager to take in the sights, enjoy the ambience, and relax on her first vacation in 250 years. Unaware she is about to become involved in a silent war between an untrustworthy hag, and a childhood rival. A lost dreamer awakens in a world of fantasy. With a mouth that does not speak and eyes which do not open, can she can she traverse this mysterious world and set her roots in Gensokyo? Or will her bizarre powers and strange mannerisms sew chaos around her? Lastly, would you all have a preference for where I'd export this, if I ever work this CYOA into a full on fan fiction? Anywhere you'd recommend?1 point

:O A new chapter mid-week, that's awesome! To start this off, I'm so happy my man Oscar finally went to sleep after all this time. Is this really the first time he gets rest in this story? Also, it's nice that Keine didn't bother him for too long :). Anyways we currently have to choose Oscar's dream. If you remember my last post here, I've been wanting to take a more careful route, in order to prepare for Kimiko. So I was very tempted to choose a dream that would foreshadow danger. But... kind of going back on my word here... I'm more curious about Oscar's backstory at the moment, "You awaken back in your bed in the Outside World." My main reason is that we don't know much about him. He's a magician, has fancy flares up his sleeves, a rabbit in his hat, and... that's about it. With a chapter focused on his old life I think we'll get to know more about his personality, and maybe even another trick that hasn't been mentioned before.Which I think will help us all out in the long-term, and help us think more like Oscar. Hopefully that makes sense. What did everyone else choose? Curious to hear others' thoughts on this one P.S. You added "Do not fear choosing the wrong answer. All will be revealed in time... " at the end, so I better not see Oscar get jumped right after I choose the more carefree option XD1 point

Hello. Some sad and important news. Chinese Touhou websites are currently under DDoS attack. Chinese Touhou Wiki (THBwiki), a lot of forums, sites related to Touhou events and other big important Touhou sites and (according to some Chinese fans) some QQ and Telegram Touhou-related chats and Touhou-related servers for multiplayer games are under organised attack, which began 5 days ago and is becoming stronger day by day. Today the all services related to THBwiki which were hosted by Nyasama became down. To somehow understand the damage to Chinese Touhou fandom imagine if in 2011 Touhou wiki, MotK, gensokyo.org and most other Western Touhou sites became down at the same time. Nobody knows the goal of the attack and how long it would last. Maybe Western and Japanese Touhou sites are under looming threat. We should be prepared to that. The more people would know about this the more chances we have solve this problem. Official statement on https://bbs.nyasama.com (one of the biggest Chinese forums) (Google translated): Official statement by THBwiki (https://www.bilibili.com/read/cv36031940/ ) (Google translated): Current state of sites related to THBwiki you can see here: https://thwiki.github.io/status/ Status of Patchyvideo (VoileLabs): https://status.patchyvideo.com Info by Chinese Touhou Newspaper (10.07.2024): The large-scale attacks on Chinese Touhou Community still continuing today, and the number of the victims has increased to ten. THBWiki and Patchyvideo (THVideo) have announced suspension of external services. According to some reliable sources, yesterday from afternoon to night, the attackers used a lot of accounts to upload a large amount of politically sensitive content to THBWiki and Patchyvideo, which may be one of the factors that prompted the closure of the website. According to an announcement from Nyasama, they used attack methods including but not limited to DDoS, DoS, CC and sending illegal content to destroy Chinese Touhou websites that contain the word "Touhou Project" on the page. Secondly, the attackers may further extend to various Touhou QQ groups and BiliBili live.Please be aware. In the deteriorating situation,there are some suggestion. 1. Use Cloudflare and other security measures to protect the website. 2. Hide the visible links. 3. Close the issue tab of the Github repos. 4. Suspend the Touhou live on live platforms such as BiliBili. 5. Be alert to anonymously posted illegal information. 6. Review the add-group applicants. 7. Protect personal information. 8. Actively to use the reporting function. I hope we can help each other and overcome the difficulties time together. What can you do? Share this topic to your friend and let they know about it.
