What do people do while playing DDR that really angers you?

[Dancing Mad]

Let me think...yesterday I almost slipped because some idiot decided it'd be funny to throw a ketchup packet on the pads while I was playing doubles. I didn't know what was causing me to slip around until I finished the song, and in order to do so without falling and breaking my neck or something else, I had to grab onto both bars.

Needless to say, if I ever find out who did it, not only am I going to grind their face into a brick wall (which we have several conveniently just outside the arcade) I'm going to force them to clean the pads, THOROUGHLY.

Then grind several ketchup packets in their face for good measure.

Only thing I hate is when people who are better than me stand all around me when im taking my turn on the machine, and then criticize me or laugh because im not as good as them. Thats very distracting when im trying to clear songs, almost to the point where id rather just play at home and not support arcades.

I'd like to add to my list, people who come up to you after you've been playing a while (with various breaks inbetween) and even though they weren't close to the machine at all, they were expecting a turn. So they say "Hey, when are you going to give anyone else a turn?". You try to explain the coin line, and they don't listen and instead argue. Amazingly, these people did nothing to show they wanted a turn. Sometimes you didn't even see them until that moment. Even if we didn't have the coin line, how the hell would you get a turn by not going near the machine at all?

This has probably happend to other people.. But.


The other day I was playing DDR.. I finished my round and got off the pads, and went next to the fans on the Cab... It was me and a few other people.. All of us had been playing for a few hours. Keep in mind.. I work up alot of sweat.. as well as my friends.

Point of the story: Some little snobby 12 year old *** girls walked up to play... and then did the whole " omgz it stinkz over hur!!!!" thing. They made it REALLY obvious and gave me and my friends bad looks and then walked away. I then proceeded to say in a semi-loud tone of voice " it's going to smell if you've been sweating!!" And then my friend started spraying Axe all over the place and on us.. The girls got pissy and left. They apparently told the arcade people.. They came over to us and said " well, atleast it smells good over here" and then I mention to them the left arrow was sticking again.

I often have to go stand by the fan (right next to the 1P side of the machine) after playing one 8 footer. I even sit next to it while other people play.

I hate when i'm breaking b4 my 3rd song ( i play bout 4 hours each time i go to the arcade, so i get tired) and someone, lil kid or older, starts hitting random arrows while it's on song select.

example:

I was resting before i did Paranoia Survivor heavy on saturday. Some lil kid like 6 starts jumping up and down on the pad hitting all the arrows he can trying to get them to light up. So anyway, I asked his dad to get him off the pad so i could play, the kid moved.
I start the song, and the lil kid had changed my setting to the following:
2x
reverse
stealth(i think)
and freeze off.


frickin pissed me off.

[Julie QQQ...?]

People who ask to play my extra stage for me piss me off.

[cheesecake]

that reminds me when i was at the arcade and the worker was like "omg do you need a sweat bucket or something?" and kept going on and on about how much i smelled. A few seconds later, this guy behind me keeps telling me how amazing my skills are and stuff. Some people who are just jealous of your skillz try to find something wrong with you and that might happen to be it. The worst part is that arcade doesn't even have a fan and its so omg hot in there (it's in a mall and it's winter, they're going to turn up the heat). I keep bugging them to get a fan, so until they do, they can't complain

I hate it when people (mostly people that have been playing a while) leave the cursor over the song, listen to it for a couple of seconds, and start shaking their head from side to side in a really stupid manner before selecting it. I also hate how people leave the cursor on a song, and briefly look around, almost as if they're trying to see if there's an "audience" before they select the song. I also hate how I'm the only non-goth that's good at DDR when I go to the arcades .

I hate it when people say a tri star is equal to a AAA. ITS NOT PEOPLE.

GIVE ME CHALLENGES!!!!

Oh Im gonna get some heat from this...but I got a few things ppl do that just kill me.

Stage 1: Anti-Social Verses mode.

Its just kinda silly to be right next to a person (who insists on not letting you play doubles *cry*) that has very little interest in communicating to your peer. Example: Sometimes when a line gets long, people will ask to join with me (or just jump on ) and start doin stuff ( with or without my saying *sigh* .) Believe it or not, but someone once went to the SN machiene, selected medium, and forced me into playing Beginner Mode...Throughout the rounds, a player like this will systematicly pick songs that you may not be ready for (that same person picked MAX 300 on my 2nd song, and had the nerve to use the 'CUT' mod.)

Stage 2: Extra Stage Destroyers

There are those that may want a challenge, but when they reach the Extra Stage, sh** can hit the fan with one of these. If your familiar with the : "Please pass *insert 10 footer here*, I cant read reverse...", this is basically the same thing. One click, and your doing Fascination MaXX.
Ouchies....I just wanted to play trip machiene *tear*

Final Stage! o.O: Public Vs. Player?

Gotta watch out for those who are loud / obnoxious (forgive spelling, not stoping to check that one). Depending on their own skill, they may do things that just make you feel bad on a stage. A good example could be someone who walks into an arcade and starts mimicing you, basically shouting how DDR looks silly or even just dumb to them, and in worst case scinerios, going as far as to bother you while you play. Ive had a few people walk up onto me after I finish a song and try to mess with me.

This is no different from bullying or name-calling, I guess we can grow up...

...or how about tell them to suck strait lemons. Half of the time, people that mess with dance players are usually not very good at it themselves.

(Extra Stage:The Big Picture)

I really, Really, REALLY, dont like people that hop up and down like a retarded lab monkey for the purpose of making fun of what I enjoy. Me, my friends, and those who also play that may not know me must all feel a bit hurt by this ignorence.

Sorry if the post was overblown. ~Z
