Marp and a few other sites were down today and they still are down for me. Before you go outside, I suggest you try to finish dodonpachi on one credit. Once you can do that, try to finish it on your 1st man. It might take you a few tries, and you wouldn't have to go outside for a very long time
After you finish both loops of Do Don Pachi on one credit and one life, try to beat the World Record. Then after that, try to do it with your eyes closed. Then when your done with that, do it blind folded and with your feet. . .
