Ever been embarrassed when playing DDR?

Hmm... lets see.
It was when I was playing Double, I forget which song it was, I know it was difficult.
I started, then all of a sudden it picked up the pace.
I only had four hours of sleep last night.
All of a sudden my legs give out.
And just when I was was about to hop on the right side, I literally jumped off the machine, into the crowd (poor little kid), knocking down about five.
Wow, that was pretty bad...

1) When I first got into DDR it was in the Philippines, so there were about 75 people behind this bootleg machine watching a newbie like myself get my buttocks beat by a 7-year-old half my size who was spinning to Afronova.

2) Two years later at the Santa Monica Pier, I was freestyling Era (heavy doubles) and fell off the pad as well as failed the song with 10 seconds left.

I've fallen a couple times in the past when freestyling.
Nothing REAL bad.

Once I was doing Sakura on standard in doubles and during the section where you just run, I ran off the pad and into a wall. Thank god only my friends were there.

I was at the arcade once...And They Just got DDR USA. So I started playing when I noticed a 9 footer. I was like Whoa!!!!! So a big crowd was around me and I decided to do it. It was paranoia rebirth. I was doing good in the beggining when I went to hit the left arrow but my foot went a little too far off the machine dance Pad... my foot twisted and I fell down on this really big Muscular guy who almost fell down too. I thought the guy was going to attack me. But he just laughed. So I laughed too

God I was so embarresed...My girlfriend could not stop laughing...Wait. She still laughs.

1.)Once I was playing a fast song on Heavy (I believe it was Twinbee), and I was swinging my arms around way too much. I accidentaly hit a fellow player watching from my left side in the face.

2.)Back during 5th mix days when I was just an "OK" player, I went up to play and chose If You Were Here(B4 Za Beat Mix). Back then, I wasn't really good at those same arrow 1/8th runs(Ex: UUU, or DDD etc.). When the singer went into the first verse, my ankles felt tired and I slipped off, running right into my friend and his girl

3.)Again, I was playing a fast song, BTF(Momo Mix), and I heard someone say "Dude your shoelaces". I didn't know who he was talkin' too till I felt myself trip over something and land face-first right onto the screen....oh and if you still haven't figured it out, it was ME he as talking to.

haha these are hilarious. well ive never gotten embarassed. haha i dont blush easily. buh this one guy HAD to have been so embarassed. after what i did to him. haha it was some white guy watching ppl play. and he kinda wedged himself in with us. and he asked if he could go up with meeh and im lyk uh sure, buh i suck. hes lyk oh yeah, im good at this game. it was soo apparent he was new to it. he didnt even noe what the difficulty levels were. so i picked beginner for meeh and standard for him. his friends were watching and snickering so i knew something had to be up. so i pick a and i did that little thing where i basically jux stomp maii feet on the down arrow. kevin was lyk, "wow, i love the way it kinda melts from beginner to challenge" haha we start played and after the first couple seconds, the guy is failing. he got pissed, and devoted the rest of his time into trying to screw meeh up. he jumped in front of maii screen, put his hands in maii face, tried to trip meeh, etc. haha i kept playing and slapped the man about 7 times. it was incredibly hilarious, cuz he kinda ran away with his friends when the song was over. they were laffing at him and were kinda lyk "yeah i think yooh lost". god i hate ppl that make fun of meeh. buh yeah picture this: 20 year old white guy trying to mess up some 15 year old azn kid, who is seriously kicking his buttocks at a game where his goal was jux to try to mess meeh up. and i was still slapping him during the song. god that one was funnie

A good, confident player who does not have much experience in an arcade...

....where other people play on the pad....

....and sweat...

...alot.

-

An eager audience

-

An overdramatic leap onto an untested, sweaty, slippery pad. (Priceless)

You do the math!

Oh how I just frickin love our crappy @$$ extreme machine. One time i was on it doing Dynamite Rave heavy(yeah i know) and i slipped and fell off the pad and failed in front of 3 hot girls non the less.(but they were only on standard) Luckily i got a chance to redeem myself after that and AAA it.

I am at least 4 years younger than everyone at our arcade. And some times there are some pretty hot girls watching or playing next to me

, but if they were to like do anything ralating me i would be known as the little pimp of the arcade and already there is this annoying guy that follows me arround and trys to make me do stuff to his friends. One time he shuved me bc i wouldn't do it and i pushed into the coin mashine and he cut the back of his head and the whole arcade laughed at him and he ran out.

Its not like i get all the attention because im the best. Because they are people VERY good at my arcade, but they still say everyday i walk in, "HEY , ITS THE DDR KID." And i always have like 5 year olds behind me telling me how good i am.
if any of my friends that are girls walked in, because this is the arcade to a laser tag place. I would run out so fast, because i AM teh pimp in my 7th grade class!

I was embaressed the first time I did it at an arcade, namely the one at Disneyland (OMG, TWO EXTREMES![/b]). I was so nervous, I didn't even notice I chose Beginner when I was doing Light with DDRMAX1.

Later on some dude comes in and wows everyone by AA'ing MAX 300 on Heavy.

I don't really get embarrassed very easy. The closest I would have been though was when i just woke up and wen to the arcade with my friend. I fell off the pad doing A. Then one time, i was playing doubles, and did maxx unlimited on light (i suck at doubles) and fell off, then next song, i fell off the pad again.

i dont really get embarrassed playing, even when i first started playing in Disneyland couple a years ago, i played in innoventions and the arcade, some one actually praised me last night at dave and busters (i was playing light, i actually was finishing some songs some n00bs didnt want to finish because they were embarassed, but they still stood in awe looking at me play

)

My most embarassing moment was at the local Fry's Electronics store. They have unmodded madcatz pads taped to the floor. I am doing Burning Heat! and I fail the song and this little 6 year old is doing it on light and people cheer him on. I felt ashamed and bedazzled at the same time.

I have to honestly say this is my most embaressing DDR moment.

It was a while back and I was at springfield mall. It was my turn so I stepped up to play doubles, I choose wakka lakka standard first (i suck at doubles) So im playing for a while and getting into it and then i step a little off to the right and before you know it im lying in a heap on the foor...Woest part is, everyone was watching.

A little while later I went to the tournament they held there and the same girl who asked if i was Ok still remembers the whole thing

I'd have to say I have two embarassing moments.

1. I was doing the Dynamite Rave freestyle...and when it came to shooting myself UNDER the bar...i smacked my forehead DEAD ON IT. I was down for the count. Needless to say...i dont do that freestyle anymore.

2. I was spinning on afronova....and just...spun right off the pad. lol...
