I played DDR today in an after school club. 2 PS2's were set up with MAX2 and Extreme. I played mostly standard, but that's because I accidentally put myself on standard a few times. I played LoM standard, and someone left 2x on. When I saw the 2x I restarted b/c that would be impossible. Two people tried LoM Heavy but failed. Someone AA'd a bunch of heavy songs. I got 20 greats on burning heat standard.

The second hard song I played was Tsugaru apple mix, which I B'd.

Has anyone else played DDR at school?

Not exactly at school.

Yesterday I talked a teacher into letting my bring DDR to the school coffee house after school in the grounds that it's *sorta* like irish step dancing. It worked. I had to get my xbox, 2 pads, tv, and games there in less than an hour tho. It was hard to pull off but we did it. I played a ton there. Too much to list. One kid got some new records on some 10 footers.

Dammit.

I always used to bring my PS2 and DDR and RedOctane Ignition 2.0 to school.

But now my PS2 is dead, so I put StepMania on some computers.

The problem is, these computers suck buttocks.

The ones with Sound Cards have no floppy drive and vice versa.

So no SM with Pad ;.;

But we're gonna rent a DDR machine sometime soon or maybe even buy one and use it for gym class!

HELL YEAH!

Never at school E2.gif but at church we have a PS2, so we play a lot there. Our youth leader is the best! E7.gif

yeah Highland Park High School is so cool, we have an official DDR club now. Not that a lot of people take it seriously, but the fact that we can go in once a month and have a class period devoted to DDR is awesome.

I lost the election for Sophmore class president for next year, but I'm trying to push for the district (HPISD) to invest in DDR machines to fight the "obesity epidemic." and I'm the first example I'm offering for that. laugh.gif

I heard that they invested in a few machines in Plano... is that true?

Most of my peers at school are still in the "DDR is gay and anyone who plays it is" stage (I hate them so much!), so If I tried that, I would have no friends till they figure it out...

Yeah, the girls basketball team always had a setup in the cafeteria (which was more like a huge open space that people were free to walk through anytime). Since they didn't start practice until 5, they'd always play.

Anime Club would have a DDR day once in a while, and it was back around two years ago when home DDR started to really catch on (there were no arcades within a half an hour of us at that time). They used to make the room stink liek whut.

At my school now, they gave us money to buy a pair of Cobalt Fluxes and two laptops for the sole purpose of playing Stepmania. When tuition is $40 grand a year, you'd expect them to be a little generous with club funding, and indeed they were. biggrin.gif

I brought in my PS2 and DDR Extreme (US) w/ a soft pad on the last day of the semester last year and I became about 1.5-2x more popular with both peers and teachers ^^.

I even convinced my Physics teacher to make my post-Advanced Placement Exam extra credit project my home built DDR board because it resembles a simple circuit with the player acting as a switch completing the circuit with each step riiight.gif.

I really should have started a rhythm action video game club, but its too late now -_-.

My friend and I convinced a teacher to sponsor our DDR club. The first meeting is next week, and we hope to carry it over to our HS next year. A lot of people seem interested, so we're praying that all goes well^^

I just sent a letter to the school asking if we could get a ddr machine. A few people are like "awesome!" while most are like "wtf...". But i dont care, as long as i get machine at the school. I really hope they would consider trying to get one. It'll be a hit! (....i hope)

Hopefully this week I get to bring DDR to gym class. happy.gif

I only know of two other people in my gym class that play, both of which are my good friends. We're having a game day (Physical games, like ping pong, basketball and such.) And I get to watch over my "Station" (because we all know how much a ps2, pad, and games cost), so I get to play and teach people all class. E1.gif
