Forced DDR retirement...

Crymson · 03-13-2004, 11:50 PM

Ok so here's the deal... Playing doubles today on a wet DDR pad... I thought I had them nice and dry, till I did a jump on the up arrow on the right and down arrow on the left... The wet pad caused me to slip and I tore some ligaments in my knee... No more DDR for me for the next 3 months. I'm in hell. Please help. :P

G'Day

Nima · 03-14-2004, 01:40 AM

i tore my ACL a while ago, playing soccer, not dancing...i was out longer than 3 months, you must not need sugery like i did...anyway, im sure the long wait will have you yearning for DDR when youre better...and sue the place with the wet pad

altairian · 03-15-2004, 03:44 PM

Man that sucks... I've been lucky to avoid wet pad accidents so far (I went up with wet shoes once not realizing how VERY BAD of an idea that is) but I'm keeping my fingers crossed =\

No... I'm not a lawsuit kind of person, unless it was severe negligence. DDR has provided me with hours of entertainment, I'm not gonna turn my back on it. There are some pluses... I can get back to posting on here, maybe have a different view on topics on whatnot. I can also get better at SM and FFR. So, good stuff.

Certainly, as long as I may "LAUGH" at your pitiful spelling.

More importantly, I'm now out of surgery, the parents bought me a new laptop, so I'll be creating some stepfiles (not littered with jackhammers and jumps). Look for them in the future.

G'day.

DarkOracleX · 03-24-2004, 12:34 PM

I hate that when you enter a machine and some fucker spilled soda on arrows!!! And one time someone put gum on the down arrow and it messed up my Vans!!!

altairian · 03-24-2004, 12:43 PM

I've started getting in the habit of wiping the pad down with my hand before playing... a couple times I've played and it was like, covered with a layer of sand...that's almost as dangerous as water on the pad =\

Thank you for your irrelevant opinion, switch.

As for the stepfile, I should be done in a week or so. Whee.

Altairian, sand IS dangerous, play at the beach and you see that it may even be more dangerous than water...

altairian · 03-24-2004, 08:25 PM

haha yeah I know I was playing exotic ethnic on a pad with sand on it and I almost slipped off... scared the crap out of me

Crymson · 06-13-2004, 07:40 PM

Whoo... I'm back, got cleared... Yes. I did play an hour before I posted this. And it felt great (though I kinda did poor.)

G'Day.

blades · 06-14-2004, 09:59 PM

glad 2 hear that u are back. i broke my ankle once and i still played ddr as much as possible. ... seemed like a good idea then ...(it wasnt my anle is really messed up now) nothin gonna keep me away from my ddr 8)

Crymson · 06-18-2004, 09:50 PM

Super ouch... Give the ankle 3 - 4 weeks rest.. And ignore he withdrawal symptoms ;p

newkidusa · 06-19-2004, 10:04 PM

dude don't feel bad, I had wet shoes while playing Afronova (s). I got to the jumps and fell completely off the stage and broke my arm.

jimmcfatbuns · 06-25-2004, 12:24 PM

i feel ya. i broke my arm clean in half, and my doc says i cant be jumpin around, cuz it might joggle the pins they put in my arm. so far this is the closest thing to DDR i can do for 9 weeks.

Takisho · 06-25-2004, 01:10 PM

Damn...I didn't even know they had jumps like that (up on right pad down on left pad). That seems like that would be a stretch (don't play doubles so I wouldn't know =\). Sucks that you can't play DDR...I would die without it. I suppose SM would suffice, though.

ddrruler · 07-5-2004, 10:38 PM

all i have to say is hahaha [sry but i need to laugh at some1][u can laugh at me if u want]o and i haven't played ddr in 2 weeks [massive withdrawel]must play!!!!!!!!!!
