A few companies responded to my plea on the front page, so we've put some videos up. More to follow.

On the same topic, do you think you guys could start hosting freestyle videos from other places in the country? Don't get me wrong, vids of Mel B, Hypnotikz, etc are great to watch, but there ARE other freestylers besdies So/No Cal. There are lots of great freestylers in the NY area, and I'm sure the rest of the country as well. I think it be nice for people to get new tastes on stuff, ya know?

I'm going to put this as nicely as I can, because I'm really tired of hearing the same complaint over and over.

We aren't biased against people outside of California. I'm sick and tired of people trying to make it sound like we are.

When the site first lost the videos server, it was just before some videos from another area (New York, I believe?) were going to be posted. Obviously, the videos server has been down for quite awhile now, so there hasn't been an opportunity to post any videos from any other areas.

I'm sure that JDogg has plans of including videos from all over, especially since (if you'd looked at the videos link you would have seen this) he mentioned for people with videos outside of California to send him an email.

If you taped a tournament outside of California, and would like to see those videos hosted on this site, please send J Dogg an email.


I don't mean to take this out on you, Dewey, I just get sick and tired when I see people trying to drag DDR Freak's name through the mud, especially when they have no good reason to.

But please do remember that the first priority is to get the current videos up and running. If and when we do put up more videos from various places, it probably won't be until after it's working with no problems.

I don't think he was dragging anything through the mud...

Anyway, yeah. I would like to get videos up from other places once I get these ones up first. Thanks.

That would actually be kinda cool.. Having a seperate "random freestyle" section in the video area for people who might have some really good vids, but weren't taped at a tourney per se. This might prove more useful for regions outside Cali though. I know here in GA, freestyler's are few and far between (ESPECIALLY in Atlanta), so FS tournaments are a rare occasion and usually have smaller crowds than 'a random saturday at the arcade' would have.

Maybe not an entire new section, but at least consider allowing FS vids that AREN'T from tournaments to be posted. Just a thought.

I have most of the East Coast freestyle hosted at Phrekwenci.com from competetions up until around February (then OniStyles got the rest). When ever JDogg is ready he can have whatever he wants from it.

yea...plus that the vids are mostly freesyles but some arent that good. some people just spin around a few times. i can do that. i wanna see some1 do a cartwheel on a double song. i need to see stuff i havent seen before and some are good but some are just normal dances. big deal..some guys played "paddie cake" while doing a song on maniac...that looks so great blink.gif its boring. whats the point of entering a freestyle comp without freestyling E19.gif all i want is the vids to be better posted...just say that its a freestlye vid that got 1st in freestyle..not jsut single.
