Made over 300 tries (after two days of pattern study), still didn't come up with something satisfying my desires.
I'm going through another big session, if I don't get stage 4 completed or better I'll have to upload stage 3.

Okay then, I was extending it a bit :) I'll use it eventually in a future uploading.
I calculated from appearance of lives and energy indicator at the top, to the appearance of STAGE XX completed. So yeah, I counted some extra frames.

36121 frames, according to the previously described method, stage 5 completed.
Very awful time for being stage 5, I didn't get speed up before almost end of stage 3 and lost my first life at stage 4 (again!).

Hey man, are you sure the ZIP you loaded is correct? 22 bytes only it says, it's exactly the byte dimension on an empty ZIP :(
Kudos for beating the sixth stage :D you can be of company to me there, with nii-san. The unbeatable nii-san...

39500 frames [~39910 - 461] more or less, this is because I was lazy to verify which was the first frame with boss explosion (it died with a bomb... so explosion over explosion...)
First life lost at stage 6. It was a stupid death so I expect to be playing again until I get a no miss for the first 6 stages at least. In my practice of the first two days I wasn't able to do a complete loop with no miss.

OK, I finally got thru boss 2. I thought we were counting when you started getting points, but I guess it's as soon as the boss dies. I'm not 100% sure on the frame, since I used a bomb to finish him off, but I think it's 12592. Started at 647, for a total of 11945. Gonna keep trying tonight.

I apologize for not having updated yesterday, I've been away from home. Now I'll download and replay everything new.

I will also give a final word about the reference time issue that TRB noticed (It was seen during KO too)
