I actually downloaded the 14 day trial and decided I wasn't going to play after that. That was a year ago and I'm still on. What really won me over to the game was that I had a couple buddies who I didn't see too often in RL tell me they were on WoW. I figured it would be more fun playing with people I knew. It was, even though I had no regular interaction with them in game due to large level differences at the time, it was nice to chat with them now and again. The social element is what I feel keeps the game going. Silvermoon server has always been helpful when I had questions. I would ask a question in general chat and get like 5 tells with the answer. Anyway, I'm rambling. --==Tom Great series of articles. I actually downloaded the 14 day trial and decided I wasn’t going to play after that. That was a year ago and I’m still on.

Every so often I go back and watch them again... they're great ;). Ah, finally found a link for the 2006 video. Going to watch that now.

Still, looking forward to both your wrap-up of WoW, and the new project round the corner.

For one thing, you're only expected to move your feet in DDR, and only in one small area. And the rhythms and steps used in DDR have no real relation to what people expect out of good dancing. So I guess what I'm saying is that DDR is as dumb as Riverdance? Rob I agree that dancing is dumb, but DDR is still dumber.

Hot girls are the local friends of mine who DDR. :) Anyway, I think I was trying to hint at this when I told you that any activity that one person enjoys (if it's not hurting people) is up to that person and not the conceptions of others. This is as good a way to see that as any I guess. Speak for yourself. Hot girls are the local friends of mine who DDR. :)

"Have you ever realised how stupid dancing at all is? The concept seems so ridiculous." I mean my god, how could I not have noticed? I really enjoy dancing, no matter how stupid I look, but I never stopped to think that the whole activity is entirely absurd! For thousands of years humans have felt the need to make music and move their bodies in time with the rhythm. It's such a normal thing, and such an accepted part of my social life, that I've never sat back and thought "why?" I've insulted DDR for looking stupid and sad, but normal dancing is just as bad! But then I guess it's just down to the social thing - I have little desire to dance on my own, probably even less than I have for DDRing on my own. And in the same way as I enjoy dancing with others I'm sure I'd enjoy the same with DDR. But, well, uh, DDR isn't usually a medium for meeting attractive girls... (yes, that's shallow of me, but it's still true) An interesting comment was made to me today which has just blown my mind. “Have you ever realised how stupid dancing at all is?
