The Truth Hurts! (Rotation 4)

1) Honestly, I don't remember. I know there were funny moments, but I don't imagine they were that funny if I don't remember them.
2) Pretty much any time my much-larger superiors would have me go to the nearby warehouse to move heavy shit with my 110-pound frame. That, and how my lazy-ass supervisors actually managed to get their positions.
3) I didn't.


My first one? Shit, I don't even know. I remember I found the second one to be harder than the first, so there was quite a bit of dying, plus there was a little bit of level-grinding, not to mention wanting to knock out all the sidequests a soon as I saw them so I could use the reward gear on the actual story. To top it all off, I wanted to get the Challenge Accepted achievement before finishing my first playthrough, so there was at least a few hours of just box-farming and saving/reloading at Opportunity.

Zukin-Man:
1) What's your first figurine you got?

TaroNuke:
1) What got you into doing StepMania Science and ultimately into team "proof of concept"? (I think you started with MAWARU?)

---

It was one of these two.



The Tron one isn't too bad, but the Morrigan one is pretty awful. However, at the time I didn't care, because I was still amazed at the fact that Japan made figures of video game/anime characters.

ANSWER TIME!!

xXMokou98Xx

1) DDRMAX

4) RIGHT NOW, i think ZiV is good as it is.

1) I'm not much of a comics person, but Thor is probably my favorite superhero, so Marvel.
2) Male.
3) Too much and to too many characters I try not to think about it sometimes.


1) Eehh... sorry... not much of a Pewdie fan
2) Toss up between pop'n music and IIDX. You can't make me choose! *cries*
3) Ok, more hugs then!
4) You asked.
5) I could plug my own files here, but ehh. I'm really a fan of Oni's Dance Stage HyperMix, which you can grab HERE!

Yes thank GOD. My most recent (aka best) stuff can be found over here. I'm finishing up the default songlist and it will be going up within the next few weeks. The first five simfiles are available now, and I'll let you be the judge of how much I've improved since I made that unfortunate simfile which was.... almost four years ago o_o yikes

---

Stage 1: Name 3 artists you love now, that DDR turned you on to.
Stage 2: Name 3 artists you love now, that DDR should include but doesn't yet.
Stage 3: Which Sonic the Hedgehog zone is the funnest to play? Best BGM?
Stage 4: Be honest here. Which song/chart did you think would win the "Worst Chart Ever Tournament?"
Stage 5: Name something you'd go nuts if you had to do without for a week.
Stage 6: TEDTalks says people are becoming increasingly addicted to videogames and porn as employment becomes tougher (and less cost-effective), and people are becoming more sexually attached to fictional characters and inanimate objects than each other. What do you think/How do you feel about this?
Stage 7: What is your favorite StepMania fan mix?

EXTRA STAGE:

TaroNuke: Name something you could always watch and never tire of seeing.

FoRCeDNaTuRe: Which PARANOiA or TRIP MACHINE song do you think is the funnest to play? The coolest sounding?

Cowtao: Does that POSSESSION banner make you feel boss, too? More or less than Mr. VD?

DJ OMiY: Name 3 of your favorite "trap" characters. Do you ever cross-dress? What would you think of the concept of "involuntary gender reassignment?"

Zukin-Man: Has being in the Air Force made you any better at using Sonic Booms and Flash Kicks? Which fighters within the last 3 years do you find yourself most enjoying?

---

Stage 1) Ryu*, Akira Yamaoka, and SMiLE.dk
Stage 2) Owl City, 2NE1, and Girls' Generation
Stage 3) I haven't had much experience with classic Sonic (never had the consoles) but Rooftop Run from Sonic Generations is my favorite. My favorite Sonic BGM has to be Tropical Resort: Act 1 from Sonic Colors. I really like where Tomoya Ohtani took the series with his sound direction.
Stage 4) I didn't follow it, so I'm not sure what the scope of included charts were, but damn do I not like ZERO D-
Stage 5) my iPod
Stage 6) Given that both forms of entertainment are escapist in nature, it makes perfect sense that people would turn to them in times of unemployment and economic hardship. As for the sexual attraction to characters... I'm on tumblr. I've seen enough fangirls/fanboys gasming over characters (myself included) to last me the rest of my life.
Stage 7) As I answered before, my favorite charts come from Oni's Dancing Stage HyperMix.

EXTRA STAGE) Naoto Shirogane (from Persona4), Marluxia (from Kingdom Hearts) and Rche (avatar, IIDX 19). Naoto is my favorite since she reverses the traditional "trap" stereotype by being a girl who is mistaken for a boy instead of the other way around. I have never cross-dressed, nor have I ever cosplayed cross-gender.

I don't like the idea of involuntary gender reassignment, as the surgeries seem to be done only to maintain some sense of "normalcy" rather than being performed for some medical reason or emergency. It harms the children more than it helps them, and they have no say in the matter. It's just another reason I think society needs to change it's views on the gender binary.

---

1) Akira Yamaoka, dj TAKA, and Captain Jack
2) Real McCoy, Akino, and Amber
3) I think I've played liek, one Sonic game ever and I don't remember shit from it.
4) Honestly, I don't attention to the tournaments here.
5) Internet
6) As much as I'd love to argue it, it seems pretty accurate.
7) I don't pay attention to those, either.


I have seen no improvement in my ability to use Sonic Booms or Flash Kicks. As for fighting games I've loved in the past few years, I might have to say Soul Calibur 5, Tekken Tag Tournament 2, and BlazBlue: Continuum Shift would be my favorites.

1: The first post in this thread
2: FORCEDNATURE IS AWESOME

---

1) The post where Al says "no posting porn on the forums".
2)

---

Blinded:
Where did the inspiration come from for Ama-tan?
-I think that's a story for another time. Or comic ^^

Mokou:
1) What is your favorite Bemani AC release?
-I don't know, we have so few over here... All we have is DDR.

2) If you won the lottery, what would you do with that money?
-Start up an arcade.

3) What is you favorite genre of music?
-I'll listen to anything really, but I've always had a thing for gabber.

4) What's your opinion on the current state of ZIv? What could be improved?
-I think it's great, if the notification field gets a little faster, and it stops high loading.
I'm almost certain nothing can be done about those, though.
Maybe if the "DDR&DS" dropdown menu didn't close so over-zealously? It's like seriously
THE MOMENT my mouse SLIGHTLY leaves the area, the whole thing closes, making it often take
multiple attempts to get to the simfiles.

5) Can I have a hug?
-Of course.

Any personal favorite memories from the UK SRTs? I know you gotta have at least one lol
-When a gimmick I make actually has the desired result. During UKSRT1, the "bail" minigame
which somebody actually failed for not stepping hard enough was really fun to watch, as well
as the initial reaction to "Up and Down and All Around!" in Stage 2.

Blocky:
5. TaroNuke: Why does your icon remind me of Kirby?
-Because I have Kirby's eyes!

NEMESetup:
1) Which comic book universe would you want to reside in? Marvel or DC?
-Marvel hands down.
2) What is your gender?
-Male.
3) Have you ever found yourself relating to a fictional character?

Dogman:
1. DO YOU WORK FOR THE BARRELS!?
-What?

2. Best Bemani/Konami Music Game?
-I've always disliked the fact that we DON'T HAVE THOSE HERE REALLY

3.*hugs* I love giving hugs!
-*hugs*

4. If you could choose an outfit I had to wear, what would it be? (I am a guy, if you're wondering)
-Uhhhhh?

5. I need suggestions for simfiles, got any good ones? (Difficulty doesn't matter...as all the songs I have beyond 2 I can AA in stepmania...beyond PRevo and VD...A'd only.)
-I recommend downloading some R21Freak site packs.

Ryan:
1) I'm sure you all like junk food. What's your favorite?
-Custard creams.

2) What do you do when you deal with a psychopath that likes to fling his own poo on walls, and what do you do when he flings his poo at you?
-Dodge, pin him down, make him eat it.

3) Explain your thoughts on Gangnam Style.
-It's overstepped to fuck.

4) Would you like a taste of my Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Cappuccino?
-Don't know what that is.

Silent:
Why the hell must your simfiles have crap ass gimmicks that cause eye fatigue and nausea
-I personally find gimmicks to be an interesting and fun new way to play the game, and I'll
agree they're not for everyone. I'll generally hint if a file has gimmicks. I think the main
reason I do it really, is because almost no one else does. Besides, my gimmicks (on this site) don't
cause anywhere near as much "eye fatigue" or "nausea" as e.g. Puurokulho's or WinDEU's.

Hawke:
1) What got you into doing StepMania Science and ultimately into team "proof of concept"? (I think you started with MAWARU?)
-It was actually MAWARU 2: The Revenge. I took apart something WinDEU did, and then made the connection between it and
theming - that FGChanges are essentially a theme within a simfile kind of blew my mind, so here we are.
Also THESE: http://kki.ajworld.net/lua/cvs/Lua.xml and http://kki.ajworld.net/lua/sm5/Lua.xml

Nightime:
Stage 1: Name 3 artists you love now, that DDR turned you on to.
-atomsoak
-2MB, lol
-Capsule

Stage 2: Name 3 artists you love now, that DDR should include but doesn't yet.
-PON (like actual PON, not mystic moon)
-DJ Sharpnel
-Hosoe Shinji

Stage 3: Which Sonic the Hedgehog zone is the funnest to play? Best BGM?
-Spring Yard Zone

Stage 4: Be honest here. Which song/chart did you think would win the "Worst Chart Ever Tournament?"
-Official? Dead End Groove Radar Special
-Unofficial? Most noob files.

Stage 5: Name something you'd go nuts if you had to do without for a week.
-The internet

Stage 6: TEDTalks says people are becoming increasingly addicted to videogames and porn as employment becomes tougher (and less cost-effective), and people are becoming more sexually attached to fictional characters and inanimate objects than each other. What do you think/How do you feel about this?
-What?

Stage 7: What is your favorite StepMania fan mix?
-Probably a classic like Foonmix 2.

EXTRA STAGE: Name something you could always watch and never tire of seeing.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WuGsRmEEx6s#t=7m40s

1.) If you could edit any post with whatever you wished (be it text or a gif, what have you), which would you edit? (This can by any post by anyone).
-This is a hard one that doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me - the only posts I can think of offhead are the ones that really stood out, and as such should be left the way they are...
2.) What would it be replaced with?

---

For TaroNuke:
1. How did DJMANIAX come about? Did you and Koizumi just one day decide "gosh there needs to be a music game that looks like technika but isn't"?
2. Out of all your crazy gimmick-laden simfiles, which one are you most proud of? If you don't have a criterion, most visually or technically impressive works.
3. Out of everybody else's crazy gimmick-laden simfiles, which one made you say "now why didn't I think of that?!" the loudest?
4. If you had to describe your entire self as a fusion of any single plant and any single non-human animal, without resorting to Pokémon, which combination would you pick?
5. have you piu infinity soundtrack // hip noses, synthwulf, i liked // this is not cheap game i know

For FoRCeDNaTuRe:
1. I noticed you step primarily DDR songs for ITG. Do you have a genre preference when it comes to simfiles? We gotta get you to branch out more haha
2. What's your favorite DDR boss song, chartwise?
3. Choose one word to respond to the very first question asked by anybody in The Truth Hurts (Rotation 5) - before it begins.

For Cowtao:
1. god I don't even know what to ask you you're never around anymore
2. What's your favorite real dance (not DDR) move?
3. If you had the option of snapping your fingers and suddenly becoming a top-of-the-game sports player with zero effort on your part, which sport and position would you pick? Any reasons are okay (you just want to be able to jump higher in general, you get all the groupies, etc.)

For DJ OMiY:
1. How's PSU? What's your favorite college activity (classes and rhythm games don't count)?
2. Do you get to see EAST COAST STAMINA a lot? Any thoughts on joining ~the boys~?
3. You're walking down a busy street in the heart of a major city. Someone bumps into you, mutters an excuse, and heads into a building before you can say anything - and then you suddenly realize there's a folded piece of paper in your hand. You unfold the paper and read it - what does it say?

For Zukin-Man:
1. too risky, nope
1b. Changed my mind. Do you like any of the akino songs not represented by Roki (e.g., Broadway Diva)?
2. What are some pros and cons of the Chinese warlord moustache?
3. Give three ingenious/outrageous uses for either powdered green tea or a bottle opener.

---

for Cowtao
1. Why Oatwoc?

Telperion


1. Songs chosen by KONMAI to be stepped in DDR always seem pretty steppable. (Besides a fair bit of the songs in Club Ver 2, there was some pretty debatable stuff in it (ANAL SPYDER)) If I would only what I like, it would become a disaster. Besides, I don't listen to music often aside of anything BEMANI-related, to be honest, so I can't really branch out. Through if I knew anything barely steppable, I would be sure to step it if I liked it.
2. Tohoku EVOLVED, through it still is far from perfect.
3. p3n1s

1) It actually came from a little thing we found for making custom technika charts for youtube videos, and thinking it was an actual technika game. It wasn't, and disappointed as we were, decided to make it so. We eventually changed all the graphics, but it is still the base for the original game. Note the one we found didn't contain any code, it was written from the ground up.

2) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSug_Gb2Zh8 or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J6AwTVozORQ
basically any stage 5 that involves Ayaze.

3) I don't think I've ever really thought "now why didn't I think of that" when watching people's stuff. I have however been owned a couple of times when I have a similar idea to someone else, but they release theirs first - this was going to be the underlying gimmick of UKSRT3 stage 4 (which was completely replaced):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQomdkHByAU#t=3m10s
And this was going to be the gimmick behind a now cancelled project that'll never be released, lol:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caQQWzZcwCg

4) ...? A sunflower... bear...

5) good rerave games

1) Beatrix's first post in the theme thread
2) ...



1) W-wha--?


b-b-but what else can I...? *gross sobbing*

jk, besides those two things, I'm in the Penn State Glee Club, which is the only all-male University Choir. I've had a whole ton of super fun experiences with the group, like getting to go on a Spring Break performance tour in Washington, DC last year! I got to sing on the steps of the Capitol and during mass in the National Presbyterian Church!

2) As a matter of fact I do get to see a lot of EAST COAST STAMINA, since Mike Severino also attends PSU and Rich is a grad student here. Just this past weekend Ian Pyles stopped by to visit and I get to see Phil every now and again. As for ~the boys~, I'm not sure if I have enough #swag yet, but I'll be sure to get back to you on that ^^

3) with my luck:


there is an inexcusable amount of comic sans in this post

Tele's questions
1. Yeah. Partly that is my fault since I moved onto an anime page called The Original Kuro-Konata. Its....different. Honestly, I miss this place. I just don't quite connect with this page as much as I used to sadly. :c If I had a connection with this place again I would appear more often.
2. Well, already starting off random. The Worm.
3. Football, tight end. I've been a fan of The Patriots and Rob Gronkowski is the runner to be! I wish I had his skills in catching as I suck at catching stuff but am great at running my ass off.

Nightime's questions.
1. Naoki, Ryu, and Sota.
2. I wouldn't know. Most of my stuff is rock oriented and it wouldn't fit in DDR.
3. Again, can't answer this as I only played the Flash Version of the game.
4. A Geisha's Dream (Ruffage Mix) .....Do I really need to explain this?
5. The Internet/Computer. The Internet is my personal ticket out of society and into a much...better world. Real Life sucks and most people are...idiots.
6. I find that not surprising. I mean, with Eroge games coming out from Japan and our downward spiral of human stupidity coming in its really not that interesting that its happening. I find it weird though as now there is insane people with waifu problems. I mean seriously, I have seen comments claim an animated character bettered his or her life. That's...Just...Weird.
7. Anything from Family Farce. Seriously, anything from them I have been a fan of.

BONUS: Yeah it does. I look at that and go, "Yeeup. Living the life."
