Ever Tricked Newbs to play hard songs?

[Zonic]

Ah, yes, it may be wrong, but it feels right!! Once, I tricked some noobie girls to play Drop Out............Then some noobies tried to play a Max song (Think "The Legend", can't remember, was on Extreme for PS2) & got a D!!! ON BEGINNER!!!!

Edit: They were noobs, not newbs, I just learned da difference...

[x_Liefje_x]

well.. ive .. never purposely picked a difficult song XD... i have a friend who just started Light.. picked CRASH and i didnt realize how difficult it would be for him so XD.. yeah.. he about died. ( AND BY THE WAY! Legend of max on Beginner is hard <.< i think the highest ive gotten might have been a B XD.... D on Light e.e ) Note: I just began doing Standard

Well, I didn't trick a n00b, I GOT tricked.

It was my first time playing DDR, so my friend thought it would be funny by letting me play single player for EXTREME. I thought that was okay- I mean, he was my best GUY friend who was awesome with DDR. He claimed that he would give me the EASIEST song in the world to play. It was what he called a "2 footer for toddlers."

Well, "2 footer for toddlers" MY BUTT!! It just so happened that he set me up with PARANOiA SURVIVOR MAX THREE TIMES IN A ROW. And just to make things even more fun for him, he set up the difficulty on HEAVY.

I've NEVER let him pick my DDR songs since.

My friend had neever been to the arcade before but he did play at home a lot and he was on heavy. And he was one of those people who say speed mods are cheating, so I let him rethink that as he experinced Bag for the first time.

[captaincolorblind]

Haha, Bag's always a good one.

I have many times been playing with a beginner and accidentally picked an Oni song...it's kinda funny to surprise a beginner with Sexy Planet Nonstop.

Also, if someone is playing on Standard and they don't know better and let me choose the song...Ska a go go!!

*FAILED*

No, that's downright jerky, immature, and mean.

If a person asks to play with me, I pick a song they'll be able to play. If I had watched them play a set, I usually gauge how well they've been playing based on the sets they had played before. If I hadn't seen them play, I ask them what their difficulty is, and usually start off with an easier song just to be safe. In most circumstances, I'm usually better than the person I play with, since most of the other good players I'd recognize off the bat or would usually (like me) prefer to play by themselves. In that case, if I know I can beat said person, I don't kick them while they're on the ground because usually it sucks when 1) The person next to you can consistently AA/SDG songs, 2) You can't clear them well, and 3) She's a girl dressed in a miniskirt. Unless they're a jerkoff who thinks they can show me up by picking some 9 footer and is really all talk because he can only do is A or B songs, then I'm usually nice to whoever it is.

I'm the chick who's helping the newbies try to figure out the 4th Mix Plus machine, giving tokens because I feel sorry for the pair of girls who picked Double instead of Versus, turning off ridiculous mods that people accidentally set on ITG, helping the newbies stand up for themselves when they want to play DDR in the sea of intimidating heavy players lined up in the coin line, etc. For all of you who think tricking newbies is cool, you should be downright ashamed of yourselves.

I just wait until they start to pick a song and I pound on the back arrow to switch it to heavy/oni. Screws them up so badly!

[Ballet Slipper]

I told my dad to try Drop the Bomb Heavy (he's starting Heavy and this is a 6-footer, so I assumed it would be easy). It wasn't intentional, but he failed out. I felt terrible after that...

I never trick people into doing hard songs on purpose. It's almost cruel...

I admit I've tricked beginners into doing hard songs. But because I hardly stick around DDR anymore, I haven't done it lately. I'm not saying that if I did stick around there I'd trick them. . . but I can't say I would either. It really depends on how I feel. Sounding conceded and shiat, but oh well.

only when they talk smack to me about how good they are

Nah, I've never told a newb to pick a hard song before, but there was this one person in the arcade, he thought he was good because he completed Sakura on Standard (D), so I told him to try Bag on Heavy. He didn't even read the foot level, and he said, "Oh, this is a slow song, it should be easy." ...He failed in less than 20 seconds. xD

[Tomo_kun]

Never tricked them. This one girl was on beginner, and she asked "Whats the fastest song". I said "Like, the fastest BPM?" she said yes. So the one off the top of my head was MaxX Unlimited.

Passed with a D. I didn't trick her, i warned her.

U guys are mean! Why would you ruin the n00bs first arcade experience with DDR? That could drive them away from purchasing any DDR games and it makes other players look bad. No wonder not a lot of adults at my local arcade are fond of DDR players. . .

I haven't intentionally tricked anyone, though I've seen many (including myself, at one point) get tricked by picking the Oni steps to a song, because the remix "sounded cooler." When this happened, I *wanted* to play Tsugaru Trick. I wound up with Tsugaru ~Apple Mix~. I was surprised, to say the least. I try to warn people if I see them about to pick an Oni song when I know they really don't want it, or if they pick a song too high for them (e.g., someone clearing B4U Trick with a C-B, then highlighting PS Trick, I point out that there's a big difference between 5 and 8, in the DDR realm.)

[[ES] GARYsurvivor]

There was this little kid that kept on playing the same song over and over on beginner mode. He wouldn't stop playing and I got angry. Before he selected it again, I was able to switch it to light. I finally got my turn.

[Julie QQQ...?]

Fixed... I was in a rush because I had to do a billion things since my sister graduated today.

Some of you people posting on this thread need to learn how to respect others, though. Stop being bullies and get a life outside of making other people look like fools.
