No turkey is safe and that means fun for everyone! Enjoy yourselves and stay out of trouble.

Thanks to everyone for the what's up and holloween greetings (geez, it's almost turkey time ...). I haven't been online too much recently because I've been seriously strapped with work this past week and none of it has been all too pleasant. I'm looking forward to relaxing these next few days and being able to eat turkey until I puke so I can eat more.

Hope everyone has a great week.

Hey, hey. I'm going back and finding I can AAA some of the stuff on the site:

Halcyon
Dance 2 This
Activity Unbroken
Soul Shift (ffr edit)
Trip to the Moon (Club Remix)

Hmmm, I created four out of five of those files. I guess I have no excuse but to AAA them huh?

Now that I'm a lot more accurate with playing step files (believe me, I'm not the best at it), I seem to be a little more accurate with creating my step files as well. Playing through Trip to the Moon keeps reminding me that I have one final Nina song that I need to add to the game. I guess that's a start at getting involved with the game again.

Everyone should have seen the main page so we are once again honoring the passing, or I should say the life, of Captain Jack.

I started playing DDR for a number of reasons back in 1999, and a huge reason for that was because of the music. Three of his songs came as a bonus on the Dreamcast's 2nd Mix home version, the song we feature on the site Captain Jack (Grandale Mix), In the Navy (XXX Disaster) and The Race. I loved all three of those tracks. They made me look outside of DDR to the people overseas who were making this music and going to his Web page made me use the German I learned for once.

He lead an accomplished life and wanted people to live in peace and enjoy everything that was life and he followed that philosphy 100 percent. I urge you to check out his other tracks, ones outside of DDR - my favorites include Party Warriors, Don't Ha Ha, She's a Lady and Sir Yes Sir. Maybe in the future, the next time we honor CJ, we'll be able to feature a different song to expose how many great songs this man had.

Other than that, more work is being done on MeTrivia. The link has been dropped down on the main page with our updates, but please be sure to check the newest addition to the site. Any input will only make the game even better.

I noticed I've somehow gotten better at playing FFR. It must be the time I spent playing Stepmania for a while after ITG2 came out. I finally managed a AAA and I've noticed a lot of my scores increasing over my personal bests.

The ITG2 r21 patch has given me a little more reason to make my own stepfiles. I've been playing ITG a lot more since I can now put my own songs into the game. I could technically play FFR songs in the arcade! How cool would that be to have FFR in the arcades?

But, anyway, R3 has got me a little excited. Being a member of this site since there were only five songs posted, I always love to see how FFR will evolve. I never dreamed Flash could do so much for the music gaming community, espcecially from the early builds of Flash DDR found on Newgrounds back in 2000.

I don't know exactly what kind of a role I can serve behind the scenes, but who knows ... maybe I'll get an idea or two into the mix.

Until then, enjoy your time on the site and be sure to check the TWO new songs of the week.

Man, I've missed this place.

It sucks that life has kept me away from here for so long. The things that have happened to me this year alone have made 2006 one of the shittiest years I've had in quite some time. But even after being gone for so long, people still remember me here. They're probably just thinking "look at this asshole just waltz back in after abandoning us," but if I could explain, it's obviously much deeper than that.

It's good to be home though. Hopefully I'll be able to assist the site in beautiful nestlekwik ways (i.e., I'm not a programmer. SuX0rz). But it's great to see everything has grown so much and is branching out to other avenues. Of course, FFR is growing slowly toward the 1 million user mark, so I'll have the sheet cake and punch ready when we get there.

Peace out.
