Introduction Thread

Hey all, Raziel X here (AFTER A VERY LONG HIATUS)

Long time player (Heavy and Oni for Stepmania)
Long Time Simfile Maker as well.

Since I'm back from what would be, an eternity of isolation, I figured, let's get these juices flowing and get some charts up.

I hope I get to meet some new faces and reignite with old ones.




Raziel X (Now Known as SinisterKun)

hi! im buggu and although i am not new to this site, i wanted to give a proper introduction and my shortcomings. some may know a user called 8bit. he was toxic, a shitposter, overall just a horrible member of z-i-v. he was me. i shitposted on forums and tried to just become part of the community. i achieved that, but in a negative fashion. but i was 11 and i have changed since then. so, if you could forgive me for that, that would be great! here we go.
im shawn but i go by buggu on here and i am a freshman in high school. i play ddr occasionally and lr2 at times to compensate for sd having absolutely no iidx machines. (seriously, look it up.) i am able to play guitar, bass, bass clarinet, drums, blblblb. aside from rhythm games, i enjoy cs:go and average minute times on a 3x3 cube. i should stop talking now.

(fuck sorry for bunp)

Hello!

My name is Didier
I've been playing DDR since 2001-2002, the first version I played was 3rd Mix Kor. Ver 1
I was on the DDRFreak and DDRManiaX forums looooong ago... (those were the golden days)
Then DDR lost its popularity here in Mexico and we got stuck in Extreme (which is the only version I can still play )

Switched to PIU on NXA/Fiesta and I've been playing PIU since then. (I hate the mexican PIU scene, tho.)

Also, I've been visiting ZiV for maaaaany years, but never made an account 'till now.

My name is Bridget, I've been a DDR player since about 1999. Started on 1st mix, up to Supernova AC. I live in southern Colorado and the nearest working AC cab is DDR Extreme with failing CDrom, speakers, sensors, select buttons, random freezes and annoying stuck panels. But I'm an addict so I keep at it. Hope to get back to making simfiles so I'll see ya'll around /) ^.. ^(\

Hi everyone. I am brand new here I love rock band alot and drummania. I am learning how to play ddr right now and It is very fun!

At first I really thought that it was chewi making a joke post. I laughed.

Then I noticed the post afterwards. I laughed even harder.

...and I just realized that I never introduced myself 2 years ago. Might as well make a useful post.

Hey I'm Marten. I'm 16 and I play mostly DDR, but I've been trying out IIDX and REFLEC BEAT lately.

That is all.

Hi! I'm Rook. I've been playing ITG for awhile and ive recently discovered this site. I hope the files here are as top knotch as those mute's or mudkyp's and other people's collection. I love to play difficulty of 9-12 on an ITG scale. I'll be lurking a lot on the site for sure! ^^

Hi everyone! My name is Denis, but my kinda "known" persona is SOTUI. I made a tune for CROSSxBEATS called "nightmares" and I do join various J-Core kinda music compilations and releases.

I will be appearing in more games from now on so I've decided to, well, stay in direct...contact? with the players.

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO to sum up, I am a loser.

You can listen to my music right here https://soundcloud.com/sotuiofficial

I'm gonna be like uhhhh...p active in here!

Hi, my name is Hansel. I am just an ordinary person that like rhythm games a lot, especially reflec beat plus and cross x beats. I am a shy person, so feel free to have a chat with me. Nice to meet you all.

Welcome guise

Thanks guys.

Hey everyone! I'm a looooong-time DDR player (my introduction to the series was Konamix), and have been trying to get into StepMania, both as a player and a simfile author, since around 2004. I say "trying" because each attempt always followed the same pattern:

1) I download the latest version of StepMania, and download all the simfiles I can find for songs that I already know and like (which amounts to maybe 20 songs)
2) I pick a song from my own library and start to make a simfile for it
3) I stop editing my simfile around halfway through the first chart and never get around to picking it back up
4) I just play DDR or FFR instead of StepMania because my library has so few songs

This is attempt #5, and I think I might actually be succeeding this time! I've been playing for a few months now, using my need for exercise as a motivator (finally being a working adult with no homework also helps). I also have a much larger library of songs this time, thanks in large part to Z-I-v! I discovered this site in 2013, during attempt #4, and I've been dreaming of participating in a Summer Contest ever since. I held off on registering until I finished my first simfile, which I'll be posting right after this- hopefully, already having made a contribution to the community will help keep me committed.

Welcome to all the other new folks, too!

Hello, everyone. I am DDRNGGin, a brand-new member to this community. I have been playing DDR ever since I was around four years old (my family had DDR Konamix for the PS1). I used to play on the DDR Pad at home during middle school and through about the first 2 and a half years of high school (just graduated from high school a little over a week ago), but, I have long since stopped playing DDR on the dance pad. I also play quite a bit of Stepmania and FlashFlashRevolution, and even currently working on a DDR Pad/Index Pack on Stepmania.

I think that is all I have to say about myself right now, so, once again, hello to all of the Zenius-I-Vanisher community.

Hello everyone! I love to play DDR, and I've recently got into playing Stepmania. Oh boy am I behind with the times! I am currently saving up for a dance mat.

Fun fact: I used to have another account named ShengDer on this site, but I forgot the password and email for it, so not it's lost forever! Hopefully I will not lose this one! Take care everyone.

Hello everyone! I am Gabriel, I'm from Chile. I've been playing DDR and StepMania since 2003.
In my current town , there is no arcade games Many years ago , but I keep playing with my old dance mat <3.

Greetings everyone and I hope to contribute a lot to this community.

Welcome!

Sup peeps? I'm coolpeaches and I've been playing DDR since 2004. I've recently been learning how to step my own simfiles, but damn can it be difficult. Hope to meet a lot of new friends here!

Welcome! Hope you have fun here. Hey, if you want to practice stepping more simfiles, consider entering the Z-I-v Summer Contest. It is a good place to start for novice simfiles steppers, and many people give feedback. It's not too late to join!

Also we have a rating system, as you may have noticed. Higher ratings do NOT mean someone is better, it just means they are usually more experienced and helpful.
