I'll tell you nicely before someone lets you know in a slightly more unpleasant manner: Please use decent grammar/spelling

And I like showing off in front of crowds, but i don't do things just to say "Ha I'm better than you"..

Welll no I dont like to show up people....it's just a matter of having fun to me...showing up people...is pretty worthless because anywhere you go or live...or even play there's always someone out there that's better than you.

The only time I show someone up on purpose is when my best friend Kelsey tells me too because they are being dickwads to her. There are some guys around our area that are like GiRlS cAnT dO dDr!! And they always proceed to purposefully attempt to show her up. So she sicks me on them.

Kelsey is my best friend.

As for showing off in front of crowds... I don't really show off in front of them.. I usually actually choke up a little bit and move really stiffly and awkwardly compared to when I'm comfortable and can move less robot-like.

my first time i tried to show up someone it was my gf (she asked me) in standard. the score went like this
Song Burnin' the floor(momo mix) Little doggy Captain Jack ( hey we were tired)
me: C B D
friend: B C D
the last opne doesnt really matter its not like we failed it or anything no we didnt fail legend of max. especially since we hadnt even tried it. no one laughed and we both got good scores. *that day was opposite day*

I love getting all the attention where I play, it boosts up self esteem you know, but I don't shout out or tell the person/people who play next that they suck compared to me. That would not be nice, and I tend to be a very kind person.

It's sorta like putting on a show for the kids. They enjoy it. (I play where there are a ton of little kids).

I keep silent, turn back and smile to anyone watching after a song, and keep on playing.

I don't tend to show people up, basically cause if I tried there's a pretty good number of people who'd show me up right back. In my experience, if you're confident on the pad and yuou have a crowd, those are people who will ask you after you're done how the game works and how much it is. Great friends are made through starting newbies on DDR. ^^

I like getting attention but were i play the people haven't been playing for long so it's mean to tell them they suck...some kid tried to show me up once after i was playing La copa de la vida (i'm in french not spanish so i can't spell it) on heavy to kinda cool down right before i left, he went and played it on light and gave me the meanest smirk i had ever seen...

i dont ned to show off where i play cause no one really plays DDR there so when someone DOES play, everyone tends to stop and look, but NO ONE here or in other places I have played in, has ever talked crap or anything. Like when i first started playing heavy, i played Abyss on heavy and lost half way into it, no one said anything, the person after me just went up and beat like a crap load of hard songs on heavy and stepped down.

Ha, this guy at the arcade today thought he was all 1337 because he could do standard songs.

"tchy3ah! i pwn ev3ry1 in hurrrr"

So when I was up I played all the songs he played. CFSIL, Drop Out, and Tsugaru. Heavy, hidden, dark. Now whos l337?

People had ought to be congratulated for their good performance, but I don't think anyone has the right to expect praise. Everyone has times when they're proud of what they've accomplished and want to share them with other people, and thats perfectly alright..... BTu supp0Z3 u K4n sh0 sUM1 UHPomgwtflol wat dO j00 r Xp3kTloOLololollolol?/1211!?1!!lol!1.? Do you think they'll say: "oMgwtfigotsbeetlol!!1!!11! U R TEH DE3DEEArE MASTREOMg!!11!!1 j0o r so graet i lub yuu roffel"? Once you're less insecure about your own ability, you'll find that you stop caring if "ppl thiink they're the best and te really rn't".

I'm not arrogant, half the time I don't even like people playing with me but when I do I don't say anything. I let them choose the songs because it doesn't matter, everyone at my arcade can do the heavy songs but I always beat them in points. I don't say anything it just makes me feel better about my self. Like hey, I'm not putting all this time and effort into it for nothing, I actually am pretty good. Oh, and when somebody brings all their friends to watch them, then I try real hard and I can SDG stuff when they get like 30-40 greats, and I don't say anything, if they get mad I chuckle inside. Call it messed up but it makes me happy, cuz paranoia survivor doesn't.

stupid song

I rarely show people up, only for these reasons:

1. Many Hot Girls.
2. The person is a jerk, going "No one can beat me!" while playing on light.
3. The person is hurting the machine by stomping/getting pissed off at it, shaming them out of the arcade.
4. Someone talking poopy to me, telling I probably cant play, then verusing them, and then beating them.

I have shown people up under 1, 2, and 3.

Me shaming that person out of the arcade was fun, cause the guy was a little snot.

<------ is a crowd whore

I love playing in front of and impressing crowds. I show OFF, but I don't try to show UP, mainly beacuse 1) I think that symbolizes someone trying to be an arrogant assclown 2) I really can't. I know one kid who I think can't finish most catas, but who can kick the crap out of me in PA. I could always be a jerk and ask him to PA and then pick a pie, but that's being overly mean for no reason. There's no point to it. I figure, if I wanna be a good PAer, then I'll just learn how to PA everything and stamina-cize people who can't do pies when it's serious time (when I can).

I don't show off but that sure as hell dosen't stop other people. One time this guy I was playing with said "noobs have to play near the window". . I should have picked PSM and failed us both.

He dosen't even pivot on CSFILSM. What a fairy.
