No freestyle? ;_;

I'm sad. It's only 30 minutes away... and how freestyle could bribe me to come so...

I'd like to see a freestyle tournament around here, even though I don't freestyle. It'd be enjoyable to watch.
Weren't you talking a while back of possibly putting together a freestyle tourny at Megaplay?
Do you know if there is going to be freestyle at the one this friday?

A Saturday? Hmm...

I can't make a promise just yet, but I'm interested. I just know that I've gone out of town something like 3 out of the last 4 weekends and plan to go to the tournament in Louisville this Saturday.

I'd like to go, but I don't know if I'll be missed on the homefront from being gone so much. I'll certainly give it some thought though.

PS - And yes, freestyle would be a major motivator.

No freestyle. The tourney at Megaplay this Friday (6/23) is really small... I think my friend holding it said it would be pretty pathetic, but there are some pretty good people that play here, just I don't know if they're joining.

However, I know while the tourney is on DDR, the ITG and PIU machines at Megaplay will be on freeplay during the tourney... sooooo.... BRIBES!!!! =P

You can at least be nice about it.

The pads are not very responsive, and the bars... move. (forwards and backwards) It's very annoying, but I'm used to it from playing a couple of sets, and I get maybe 1 pad miss for every three song set. It's worth going to if you are into the whole tournament thing, there'll hopefully be some more people there (that weren't at the Megaplay tournament, which had a horrible turnout.) I think I'm going to go to maybe see some old friends (used to play there alot), and meet some new ones if anyone decides to travel to elkhart for this.

If you plan on going, please post it as I would like to get an idea on how many out-of-towners are going to be there. Thanks in advance.

I might go, depending on how I feel about the pads; I'm checking them out tomorrow.

Did you get a chance to check out the machine?
I've signed up for the tournament, which will be my first. So, if anybody else goes, I'll be the tall skinny guy with a mohawk.

I'll also probably sign up for one of the mishawaka tournaments or at least make it out to watch.

No, I actually didn't get to check them out. I can't make it to the tournament because I'm not feeling too well, and I'm not for playing DDR with lower back pains. I'm kind of tired, so I've been sleeping for most of my days. ^^;;

I'll check them out another non-tournament time. =)

Well, Coty won this tournament as well. Good show. I took 3rd and Dan placed 2nd, I don't know if he posts on here or not.
