good to see you helping him out E13.gif . though perhaps he should check the other sections of the site...like the dictionary? lol. PA stands for Perfect Attack, and yes, it's a type of tech. the object is to see who can get the least number of greats.

Although Prefect Attack is in the dictonary section, PA is not. I remember this because I had the same problem when I began coming here. "wtf PA?!" and so forth.

Most people on the site dont write out Perfect Attack, they just say PA, so I belive his question is justified.

They should put a (PA) next to the Perfect Attack definition to help clear this up.

Some other terms you might like to know are:
GA: Great Attack
FC: Full Combo
FS: Freestyle
PA: Perfect Attack

And as far as scoring goes...............
AAA = 100% of the total number of Dance Points
AA = At least 93% of the total number of Dance Points
A = At least 80% of the total number of Dance Points
B = At least 65% of the total number of Dance Points
C = At least 45% of the total number of Dance Points
D = Below 45% of the total number of Dance Points
E = If you failed the song

Oh, I borrowed these last scoring definitions from Aaron in Japan's Max/Max2 scoring section.

I remember when I first started playing, on 3rd mix a couple of times I got an E but still passed the song.
