Raises hand!

I'm not spectacular at it but I can handle standard mode pretty well. Before I was made coach I was going to take my DDR to Pittsburg. We did have it with us in the hotel, but didn't have al ot of time to play since it made to much noise to play late.

I also have stepmania on three of the six computers in my house, I just need to have time to make my PS2/usb converter work so I can hook up my dance mats.

DDR r0x0rs. All my friends and I used to make fun of the kids playing it at arcades, until my neighbor bought it for ps2. We spent entire weekends playing nothing but ddr. :-)

Also, we had plans to set upa ddr stand during lunches and charge kids $1 to play to fundraise for our team. It never materialized, but I still argue its a good idea.

Wow, a DDR thread and Genia wasn't the first person (let alone the second or third :p ) to respond to it................surprising! ;)



DDRAngelKumuri, be careful using light colored fonts. It's difficult, and depending on how your monitor is set might be impossible, to see the pale blue words in your post against the default gray background used in posts. Stick to the medium and darker shades. :)

DDR rocks.
I have a step mania machine with an EMS USB adapter (for connecting a Playstation pad), and in true engineering fashion, a home made ddr pad held together largely by hot glue :)

Or a modchip/boot disc :P

Rombus: Next year when I'm captain of our ski racing team, I think that I'm going to seriously institute DDR training. But seriously, now we do a lot of running drills, which unfortunately don't help that much with balance or co-ordination. However, DDR can seriously help improve co-ordination, balance, and reaction time - three incredibly valuable elements to a successful ski racer.

I tried playing it :) it was a lot of fun! :) but i sucked :(

Re: DDR anyone?
 

AHHH! DDR! DDR!!!!!

A DDR thread has resurfaced. Sorry I didn't reply earlier everyone, I was travelling from Michigan to West Lafayette and just got home.

I play DDR with a passion, and I'm even on a team, though at the moment we're in a slight transitional phase, and will be branching into two groups.

I love my Cobalt Flux. It is a pet.

There is a 8th mix at VCU in the Student commons. I'm working my through all the songs in alphabetical order. Since I got my memcard late last fall, I've gotten A upto midway through the Bs, with a few exceptions.

20, November is the bane of my exsistence, and I refuse to play bag with speed modifiers.

I commend you for refusing to attempt Bag with speed mods. It's a bloody 7 or 6 footer with 3x on. I like it 1x myself too. With 20, November, you just gotta crank thru it.

Anybody got experience with actual DDR competitions? Let me know, I travel sometimes to compete and I love finding buddies.

I really enjoy a good game of DDR, especially with friends.

Best of all, it's fun and exercise (woo!)

Re: DDR anyone?
 

The nearest DDR machine is about a half-hour's drive away, so I don't get to play that often!
I've been stuck at 3-4 feet for the past year. =P
