      Re: I played DDR for the first time ever today

      Doubletap. I cannot spin.

      I have no PA at the beginning, but I crush the ending...think I did it with like 2 greats once from after the stop to the end.

      Had like 50 at the beginning though, plus CB's...on the AA run I got like 40 with a good. Was 85 mil.

      EDIT: 4 new AA's in 6 games...Electro Tuned, Saint Goes Marching (87 mil!), Break Down, and End of the Century. Ones I didn't AA were Gradiusic Cyber and Afronova...GC is just freaking weird, and Afronova has an evil, evil ending.

      EDIT2: AA'd Dynamite Rave...didn't get Oni, will try on 3x to see if that makes it easier.

      EDIT3: Woot, A on Paranoia Survivor. 87.8 mil.

      EDIT4: Here are all the 9-footers I haven't AA'd and why:

      Burning Heat: Beacuse it's the hardest 9-footer in the game, will almost certainly be the last one I get
      Cartoon Heroes: I came pretty damn close on this, actually...could probably get it with luck. Jumpy parts are very tough, though.
      Captain Jack: Gah, annoying ending part, and I can't PA the gallops at all for some reason.
      Dynamite Rave Oni: Because DDR Extreme doesn't have the x2.5 speed mod, and I've had bad luck.
      Gradiusic Cyber: 16ths really nailed me the two times I tried it, plus the rhythms are really really weird
      Insertion: Gayest BPM changes ever
      Leading Cyber: Crossover 16ths are cool, came really close anyway though
      Paranoia Eternal: Little crossover doom sections murder me completely.
      Stoic: Because I've only tried it once. ><
      Trip Machine Climax: Jumpstream in this one is really awkward.
      V Oni: Again, because there's no 2.5x mod. I get garbage PA on the trills =(

        Bump...trying to AA all the 8's. 9 of them left...SO many are 150-160 BPM, which is the absolute worst for me because Konami was stupid and left out the 2.5x mod =(

          My mom seems to think that bar raping automatically enables you to do the last big stream in Paranoia Max just because she saw me fail it miserably on the extra stage while the other guy kept going. (The only Heavy song I've AAed is Freckles at 150 bpm.)

            Re: I played DDR for the first time ever today

            Lol, the seven 8's I haven't AA'd and their BPM's:

            Brilliant 2U (Orchestra Groove) Oni: 150
            Do You Remember Me: 150
            Gentle Stress: 160
            I'm in the Mood for Dancing: 150
            Kiss Kiss Kiss: 150
            L'amour et a Liberte: 139?
            MaxX Unlimited Standard: 140-320

            Wow, what a coincidence...more than HALF of them are 150 BPM, and one of them is 160 BPM (which I'm less horrible at, but it's still hard). I guarantee that if I could use rates in DDR, I could put any of the 150-160 ones on 1.1x and EASILY AA them. Stupid Konami leaving out 2.5x >=(

            The others are that absolutely crappy L'amour song where the arrows don't go to anything, and MaxX Unlimited Standard, the hardest 9-footer in the game. Oh wait, it's an 8-footer...still the hardest 9-footer in the game. I'm not even exaggerating at all when I say that it's definitely harder than every other 9-rated song in the game.

                ps ok I wouldn't AA Kiss Kiss Kiss 1.1 because it has MANDATORY 486 crossovers. The others I would.

                  That's a very long AA list you have. You're better than me, and I started before you! Darn...

                  Still, I think Maxx Unlimited is easier than a lot of 9-footers. I think Cartoon Heroes and Afronova are harder, but maybe it's because I've practiced Maxx a bit. Then again, I haven't near AA'ed any of them. L'amour is really annoying, and I haven't done that one in forever. As for the rest, I really like 150 bpm. I don't use speed mods at all, so that might explain stuff.

Shut up, I'm a total noob >_<).

                      It was a hell of a lot of fun, even though I only spent like a half hour there. I'll go there a lot next week and see if I can get to the point where I can pass a 7-footer. =)
                      Well best of luck to you. Play more.

                        If you're talking about Heavy, you must be delusional.

                        Standard is debatable, although IMO Afronova is still a cakewalk compared to Unlimited Standard...Cartoon Heroes is a lot closer, although Cartoon Heroes lacks full-out 8th jump bursts the way Unlimited Standard does.

                        EDIT: AA'd two more 8's...I'm in the Mood for Dancing, and MAXX UNLIMITED STANDARD WOOT. Also got 89.9 on Max 300, 78-1-1-4, INSANE run for me.

                        EDIT2: AA Insertion, A MaxX Unlimited. A'd or AA'd all songs available on the machine.

                        EDIT3: Dynaminte Rave Oni, Brilliant 2U Orchestra Groove Oni, Gentle Stress, and Leading Cyber all AA'd. Down to 8 9-footers and TWO 8-footers left to AA.

                          Bump.

                          AA'd L'amour and Kissx3, which means I've AA'd EVERY 8 in the game. Woot. Also AA'd Burning Heat (54), which was sick for me, and got 36 greats FC on HVAM, which was REALLY sick for me.

                            Yes, we also have a bowling alley, 3 DDR (supernova, Extreme 2, and 5th mix) and one in the Groove, I go there every two weekends pretty much because bad people hang out outside and my mom doesnt think its a good place, But I love it there and the people there are so nice, and one of my friends gets harassed by one of the workers. He'll be like "So how much are you gonna spend today?" We can do this thing where we can pay the place $25 and get free tokens for the rest of the day, however, you have to buy your drinks separately, but Im sure if you were about to die, the owner or his wife would lend you a chocolate milk, or coke. Its so much fun there because you can buy Japanese candy like pocky and Hi-Chew (My personal favorite is grape or apple), and even some cd's, games, or magazines not found in America. Also, they offer Japanese lessons, and they have other Bemani like DrumMania 8th and 5th. Then theres a banjo, a Guitar Freaks, a Poppin Music Fever, another ddr like thingy, DanceMania or something that has diagonal arrows and a middle pad, a motion senser hand game where you move your hands to the music, theres two Distorted Djing games, and finally another hand sensor one where you wave your hands over the circles and under them. Not to mention the various japanese-style arcadish games like Marvel Vs Capcom 2, theres about 7 sets of two. But this is in a separate room, and then you can bowl as well.

                              Wow. I want to LIVE there! They're having a tournament today, aren't they? Too bad I'm not anywhere near Massachusetts. Oh, and the game with the 4 diagonal arrows and center button is probably Pump It Up, another very good dance game. Oh well, I'll just have to deal with the nearest DDR machine being 25 minutes away.
