* Rules : No holding the bar
Can I get a holla' holla?
Damn... that's a tempting offer to pull me out of retirement. _________________

^ You happen to be an asshole
Are you serious about the no bar rule? If so, that should make things interesting _________________

WOW!!!! Now this is what I am talkin about!!! Gonna have to practice some $0.40 PIU @ Davis to get ready for this!!!
1. I never been to Korea before. I wonder how the Korean life is. ^^
2. FS!!! It's about time!!! I've been dying for a PIU FS for quite a long time, and now this is the chance.
3. PA? Maybe. The no-bar should give non-bar-rapers like me some advantage (even I'll get chewed on by those 20's like Dignity). I know so many are gonna whine about this, but heck, their loss, not ours. Rules are rules. _________________

It's too bad that the Mexican players can do everything on crazy and nightmare already without the bar, and with amazing scores. I don't think anyone else, besides the koreans, will touch their best players in the tournament. _________________

It's good to see them try this kind of championship, it only promotes their product, although I'm really curious about that no-bar deal.
This should be very interesting. Why couldn't Konami do something like this? [/rhetorical]

This is really old news. That should have been posted in the first post.
And to everybody wishing to compete, GO ONLY FOR GETTING TO SEE AMAZING PLAYERS IN ACTION. DO NOT EVEN TRY TO WIN.
Korea and Maxico both have people who can get insane stuff like Under 10 miss FAE1Nm No bar. And S Dignity Cz. America is far behind in the Pump Rankings, with even our best players falling 3 million short of the World High Score.
If you're a PA'er anyway. Freestyle, go for it if you think you've got it.

No Kiddin. Going against one of them in the first round is instant loss unless I can FP the actual song (if it's an 8 or 9 ranking on Crazy).

Perhaps Konami of Japan has abandoned the DDR Arcade market!? (rumored for years, though unsure if true) _________________
