21 now, 22 in December

i'm turning 29 in december.

---

I'm 27, born April 1st, 1983.

OMG, I played those games when I was like 8 years old. I started playing DDR when I was 14. Kinda late, but whatever.

Gamer since Sonic 2 and Toy Story for the Genesis. I was, what, 3 when I started gaming. Just like my brother (who is four and has almost beaten the full Sonic and the Secret Rings game O_O)

DDR, I first started with Konamix in 2002 or something...Didn't start seriously playing until late 2007.

---

I wouldn't call that late. I started when I was your age, around May 2001(5thMIX AC) to be exact. Aside from a 3-year hiatus because of an unrelated injury, I've been playing ever since.

I would actually say that's pretty average. I started playing back in 2003 when I was 9 and seemingly everyone else that played in my area was between your age and 21... though from 2005 (when I was 11) until January 2007 (when I was 13) I didn't play at all, so maybe the standards have changed. Pretty much everyone in my area stopped playing so I don't really know if I'm one of the youngest anymore.

I'm 16, born in May, started DDR-ing when I was 10. took me one year to beat a 10, and progress has been slow ever since.

---

I started playing in December 2008. I think I mostly win the late prize Like Kynayo, I got to ten-footers within a year, but moving through the tens has been pretty difficult. Yet another reason why I picked up doubles.

---

Wow, I started out on SuperNOVA when I was 14, and everyone in my town quit playing around than because the songs got too hard. I passed my first 10 (Outer Limits on SuperNOVA 2) about a year later, but I had trouble passing 10s until I got my metal dance mat almost a year ago. Now I'm struggling with ITG 11s and 12s along with 16-18s on X/X2.

Got my first 10 (SAKURA...shut up, I know it's a 9 now) in early '09, progressed to finally beating Pluto Relinquish back in October, and slow sailin' since. Can't beat FELM or FAXX yet.

---

Same here. I failed at the very end of FELM It was kinda pathetic too because I could see the two freeze arrows at the end, than the fail doors slammed. I can't beat Pluto Relinquish, so that's pretty good.

The best 10 I can probably pass would be either Trigger or Chaos. (Pretty much anything below 16)

I haven't even beaten Chaos yet. Then again, I haven't tries it for a couple months now :/

---

Lucky bastards. I still can't pass anything higher than 8's (OLD) or 11's (NEW). Even then, some 8's I screw up on. *shakes fist @ ORION.78 (civilization mix) *

30 by this year Only able to pfc easy songs now

I am 19, my birthday is April 5th 1991. Been playing bemani games since I was 12 though (around 7 years). I can AAA almost any given song on Heavy on DDR EXTREME arcade, and of course pass everything with a pretty high grade (mostly AAA's) on the newer games.

---

Same here >_> I can only handle a couple of 9's and 10's (old scale). What usually gets me is my stamina. I usually tire at the end and it really effects my ability. That and crossovers. I am JUST getting the hang of doing some of them more efficiently

---

Now, I'm the opposite. I can't beat PRH (or PRO, but they'll come at the same time), but I can beat FAXXH (and FAXXO) and FELMH.

---

Seriosly? "Lucky"? You think being a pro at DDR has anything to do with luck?

Anyway, I started Didder when I was 20 back in 2004. Passed my first 10 a year and a half later I think.

Because that's a 9.
