It's not the scoring, it's the fact most of your body temperature is released through your head. A thick black hat like that holds it inm making you feel more tired than you actually are.

I'm aware of that, but like I said, it didn't seem to impede him. He didn't even take it off at any point, and he had played at least 3 intense rounds or whatever you call them.
Colour also doesn't make a difference indoors.
For your own reference, you also wrote "inm". I don't really care about shooting down people's typos anymore though.

I loved it when that kid told Chris and I that he was a 7-step hard player and then he goes up and 98s Kagami and 80s Summer, rofl.
Oh man, Chris and I failed pretty hard. He was wearing his god damn heavy skater shoes while I was wearing my "going out" shoes which are also heavy. Chris failed Utopia while I stepped off the pad and gave up half way through Tell, lol.
Fuck DDR noteskins, srsly.
P.S. I just realized that JD (Exrave) was there playing Extreme on those awful dancepads. I didn't know that was him until I saw some video on youtube of him playing, rofl.

Oh, sounds like he's almost at my level. I play too much.
Yeah, because that's as pointless as kicking somebody in the testicles and claiming to be a master of martial arts (in which most cases you are not).

I will never understand how the hell stomping on a large metal pad can be fun. Perhaps in competition, maybe, but I don't get how patrick in particular can sit and spend his day breaking his keyboard.
Also, if that was meant as an insult, you missed the mark by a mile. If not, then yeah.

It's more satisfying than you think. I personally cannot play an FPS for more than 20-30 minutes before getting bored, whereas I can key/arrowsmash for hours on end.

I did try StepMania.
15 minutes later, it was gone.
I will just never understand it.

Oh, sounds like he's almost at my level. I play too much. He's probably better. He claims that he has a 95 on Summer. He 80ed it bracket raping with his shoelaces untied. what but I don't get how patrick in particular can sit and spend his day breaking his keyboard. Throughout the 2.59 years I've been smashing keyboards, I've never broken one. The only damage I've done would be the chipped off paint on my Saitek's arrow keys. My Compaq keyboard is in good shape. I usually spend 1-3 hours playing StepMania or FFR daily, actually. It depends whether or not I'm in the right mood and if I'm doing well. If I'm doing exceptionally well and wrecking all my records, I tend to play for prolongued periods (usually more than 3 hours). If I'm doing horribly (which usually happens due to the lack of energy or if my hands are cold), I play for a maximum of 30 minutes and no more. Nowadays I play StepMania everyday to improve. I'll play FFR in Computer Art to kill time or if I'm doing well because I've pretty much done everything I can on FFR (besides playing all those easy songs...). But I do lurk the FFR Forums daily.

it isn't crappy conventions, it is just i go around critisizing the staff for everything they do wrong, the badgers for being incapable if they can't spot everyone who doesn't have their badge showing with in 80 feet of their stations, and all conventioneers who break rules, i critisize instantly (there are so many of each of the three). and no one can do anything about it, because no one wants to write down that they took my badge away for pointing out their incompitence (and i know the laws regarding seziure of property anyways).
also, when i'm not yelling at everyone and everything for being incompitent, i somehow become uber popular, i even have my own fanclub.... WHICH I HATE!!!

The above poster begins to remind me of Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way.
I tried to play DDR once and I ended up crying and thinking of killing myself. I tried FFR and I wondered why I was playing it. I am not cut out for rhythm games, any game that is typically endeared by young people these days just never seems to suit my fancy.

Heh, we call them gophers. I could always put down "harassment of convention staff" and kick you out. It would look legitimate without downplaying staff themselves.

actually no, because i could still appeal which would get their behavior reported, and would still put them elegable for illegal seizure of property.

I don't know about Dutch law, but it would not be constituted as unreasonable seizure in Canada. Seeing as you are on private property, staff withholds the right to boot you from it for any reason, with or without refund. Wearing a badge signifies your agreement to this.

They can't grant that power to volenteer staff here. Even in Canada, you would probably have the right to appeal any such decision in court, and if you didn't break a single written rule, the owners of the convention would really not want that kind of publicity to be mentioned (especially since they already get tons of publicity about underaged sex, underaged drinking [in some places], fire hazards, and many questionable events going on that arn't being properly controlled durring convention that would then be brought into grounds for investigation durring next convention, whether you win or lose the court case [and if you've ever been to a convention that has heavy cop interference, then you know those conventions won't last another year]). Furthermore, Your rights in canada may be different, but "staff holds the right to revoke your badge for any reason" doesn't mean exactly that in ANY anglo-saxon common law country. You still have to prove it was based on firm ground rather than a personal dislike of the person, which finding them annoying is really close to that line. between publicity and legal grounds, no convention in their right mind would dare mess with it. (esspecially when there are staff that get drunk at most conventions, staff turns a blind eye to most illegal action, and if they caught even one of those, the convention will be at the very least under investigation the next year, and then criminal charges can be pressed if there is reason to believe that your taking away that badge was because they were trying to stop illegal action that staff wouldn't).
MANY MANY problems trying to take away some's badge for trying to enforce rules, i advice you NEVER try it no matter where you are, unless you want to risk jail time for aiding in illegal consumption of alcohol, for example...)

I can't read your writing, no matter how neat this sans-serif font is.
