so i just came back from the arcade about 10 minutes ago and the strangest thing happened. when i was playing (japan heavy if you must know

) and in the middle of the song, i don't even realize i'm playing. It was like i got knocked out or something. so just about when the song is over, i come back down and start to mess up on the song. it was too hard for me to get bsck on track, so i failed 2 steps before it ended

. I mean, does anyone know what the hell happened?

1. I've had it happen to me before. Not while DDRering, but during track.

2. It could be that you spaced out. Not sure.

3. It could be Euphoria (I think that's what my coach called it when it happened to me in track) I was running the final 100 meters of the mile and i had to sprint. I hit top speed, then everything went silent. I couldn't move my eyes, but i could just see my hand moving back and forth. Once i came back to reality, i slowed down and let some dude pass me.

It doesn't really happen to me... but during HVAM I usually seem to somewhat not even know what I'm doing and kind of "lose vision". Maybe not all the way to that extent, but weird nonetheless. I can't remember any of the steps near the end, either.

It's happened to me, but not while playing DDR. I was going to the fridge and I get to the fridge and my mind goes blank

and I go back to playing DDR. Then I remember what I was suposed to get.

what happened , is what i call, entering the zone.. your mistake was pulling out, if you would have continued playing, you probably would have continued to play almost unconciously ... i have no idea if thats healthy.. but it happens to me a lot when i play harder songs ((catas and such))

it feels pretty sweet though. when i did it (happened again), i was playing cartton heroes standard with stealth. thing is, i didn't realize i had stealth until i came out of the daze. i managed to pass with an a because i zoned out for most of it

. weird thing is when you zone out, you do so much better. weird

I've had that happen before. Of course, it WAS while I was doing strength fo the demon(strength of the demon is a huge anger and adrenaline boost, at once, aimed at one target. It numbs all pain and I won't stop until my goal is done.), so that might have something to do with it.

Forgive me for being anal, but I have to point this out...the name of the song is Matsuri Japan...the kanji character is not the symbol for Japan; it is the symbol for matsuri, or festival. Ok, I'm finished.

That has also happened to me in track during the 400. Usually it's induced by adrenaline I believe, so I doubt it would happen to me in DDR unless I was playing competitively or was about to AAA something.
