Are people actually GOOD at DDR where you live?

[mysticsnake]

I live in Winnipeg too. We have quite a few good players here, the best (as mentioned) being Pickles.

PS: Dyaus lives about 2 and a half hours from where I live, and has AAA'd all but 4 songs (I think 3 of the non-AAAs are SDGs). I'm surprised at how good people in Oregon are. We have Toastercookie, Dyaus, Juni, Caffymajin, etc.

[dragoncaneofdoom]

Yes, there is. ME. LOL, JK. Actually, Nathan, Allen, and I (Jay) consider ourselves the best in Dothan. We haven't seen anyone else on Standard while we are on Heavy. My favorite is Sakura and I am STILL PO'ed that the US version of Extreme for PS2 didn't have Sakura. Nathan's favorite is Holic (Konamix) and Allen's is La Senorita Virtual (Konamix). We are in the process of training our friend Brian, but he's not so good.

here in rhode island? lemme see. i saw this guy once that did the legend of max backwards on the pad with the arrows invisible and got a AA. does that count as good? from what i've seen, my state is actualy quite good at DDR. unfortunately, the only song i can do on heavy is the Shining Polaris, so i am not one of those people

[qualy]

The only person who is good at DDR out here in sequim is myself that I know of. All the good people are out in Seattle, Tacoma, Silverdale, Spokane, etc. :P

I wish PA or sequim had a ddr machine.

[daisuki_chibi_chibi]

there isnt many good gaming arcades in Rhode Island, except Tokyo Game Action

[Sum_Boy]

LilQ plays at our arcade...myself...I can pass Bag on 1x, and there are some other people that are extrordanary

[Frizzmight]

Dude, the people at hhs (thats Hortonville High School) are awesome at it
We have this one kid DK whose a friek at it

[dancemaster021]

heck yea

i live in a little taown in Virgiania and like theres a lot of people who can do like maxx unlimited on heavy includeing me. i think our town thing is so boring thats the only thing we have to do.

[GregHead]

Totally mixed bag. One day you'll see people playing on light, the next, there's people playing... er... Bag on heavy (I'd like to take this time to say that I can beat Bag on 1x, and Max 300, Sakura, Paranoia Survivor). There's this one guy I've seen that almost beat the Trick course.

But yes, on almost any day, you'll see people averging at least "good" on each judging 8)

[GregHead]

Well, unless light is good, no. And I PERSONALLY think the suckiest ones are the ones who don't even try and just stand on the buttons the whole time! Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't u supposed to keep ur feet in the middle and jump from button to button (If u know what I mean)

Quoted for idiocy.

It's Konami's fault for making that Beginner Helper. Why not make one that shows good form? If they are allowed to move the same foot twice to avoid crossovers and spinning, there aren't many combinations of moves to animate.

And while we're at it, once I actually tried to play with the helper on stealth. Even on a 100BPM song, I couldn't follow it at all. Kind of a good thing I guess, so beginners won't rely on it, but still pointless and teaches bad form.

hmm, have you tried 'easier' heavys like Drop the Bomb, Butterfly, etc etc? My first heavy was Kick the Can, but those aren't on Extreme cabinets.

well, hehe ^^; i only have DDRMAX 2, so i try! i can almost do xenon on standard, and Tsugaru, but i'm afraid of killing myself if i try afronova on standard! ^^; but i have heard the song butterfly (i have the song on my mp3) and i would like to try it at an arcade sometime, i dont get out much, little sister needs to be watched after school, and tokyo game action is in woonsocket, not where i live. i need a lift to get there! ^^

plus i can almost do i feel on heavy. not quite there yet!


and here's a thing that my dad has taught me about any video game: always try the hardest first. then when you go back to do the easyer ones, it so easy you laugh youself to death.
plus, to me, the shining polaris is quite easy.

[Papayacrazy]

Well, I live in Texas, and we have this one group at gamewrols where there is a DDR Extreme, and they are REALLY good, they go on challenge mode and nonstop mode and AAA everything. I am on heavy mode, but then again I have been playing FFR for a while so I may be back on standard mode.

[daisuki_chibi_chibi]

just got back on ddr yesterday, it's sad when youve been gone so long that still in my heart by naoki on light mode is so hard you almost fail endless mode XP
