Favorite thing to do after losing

I use to flip the machine whenever I failed, not much or at all anymore. I just get frustrated at myself and try again.

I just keep stepping in arrow patterns until someone yells at me to get off the machine.

If no one does it in time, I usually fall into Super Star or Cutie Chaser steps for a while, then long after the "FAILED" screen has gone away, I'll stop and go, "AUUGH! I WAS SO CLOSE!!!".
Then stop all movement for just a moment...and calmly walk off the pad.

I keep swinging my legs about as though I'm still playing while half hanging my head in shame and moving off the pad. Try to imagine that if you can.

I usually do what I call a hell set for my next set of songs. A hell set is doing hard catas back to back in a row without breaking. You finish a song, find the next song as fast as you can and play it. Helps alot with stamina. My favorite so far is So deep, HVAM, and EE.

You know......... It's not like the machine knows
that ur flicking it off when u do it. It just stays there
saying stupid things after u fail like "Wha wha what?!"
or " I'm always here for you...I'm ready to support
your next effort". But I guess doing stuff like that DOES
help calm u down a little.

well... i havent failed a song on singles in a looooooooooooooong time.

but if i fail on an oni or on doubles, i have a sure fire way to not look stupid.

right after you fail, tilt your head and stare at the screen like a confused dog. then turn around and continue to hump the bar. hump it like youve never humped before. i swear, the crowd will laugh and they will remember you for it.

Depends. If the pads were in decent condition and I simply failed, then I just walk off. If the pads absolutely SUCK, then I proceed to stomp the programming code out of the machine. Or at least the malfunctioning panels.

It depends on the song. If it's an easy song and I'm just being retarded I'll probably laugh, and if it's a hard song I know I probably wouldn't pass..I would laugh.

If you get pissed off about that, you'll keep playing bad most likely.

One: I'll punch the back bar (like when I failed Music on Heavy)
Two: Flip the machine off and walk away (when I failed Last Message Heavy)
Three: Walk off the pad and go outside for some fresh air to calm down, then come back inside and try the song again...and again...and again....

i dont get angry much anymore since i usually am trying to do da 10 steps right now and it is respectable if you fail them.

though i got to the triplets before the final jump in Max300
and failed two steps before the freeze and slammed my head onto
the machine's screen and cussed out loud. eveyone looked at me for some time. i sat there for awhile so no one else could go.
'bout two minutes i left.
i still havent got to play it again either though i will probably fail, *slam*, ~enter curse here~, sit, leave.

I think she means that when you flick off the machine it helps you a little. I don't see why the machines stupid comments would help anybody.

EDIT: Forgot to put what I do when I fail.
Swear. Scare the children. Hit something
