I have to tell myself "BLINK, DAMMIT, BLINK" while I'm playing. So much for 'involuntary response'

My glasses usually start to slip on my nose (since my nose is small and I don't have a prominent nose bridge =P). It gets really freaking annoying. I'm too lazy to get contacts... LOL.

That is why I take off my glasses when I dance....it just seems easier that way.

I'm pretty much blind without my glasses so they must stay on. But mine only start to slip once I get sweaty. I just wipe the sweat off my glasses/nose and that'll fix the problem for a while.

not sure if I have any quirks. I've been told that I play with my mouth open on harder songs or when I start to get tired.

That happens to me too. At lest two times during every song, I have to push them up so I don't have to lean my head back to see the arrows.

I have pretty bad vision. I've never tried playing dancing game without my glasses, and I'm pretty sure I would suck.

My quirks? I dunno. I play in my socks.

I play barefoot. Cant stand to play with shoes on, it messes me up.

I can play barefoot for a while, and then my feet start to hurt, so I guess I'll play barefoot until my feet can't stomp anymore. Shoes don't make a lot of difference to my scores....although this one time I played DDR in snow boots. That was interesting to say the least.

Danny (Christina's brother and V's man) he plays barefoot and I relize he tends to go faster than he should....from time to time he is like "Crap went to fast"....one time we played Jump on Hard (7) and that song is 98bpm so it is slow....and he failed it cause he was going to fast.

That would have been something neat and interesting to see.

I apparently don't move my upper body so it looks like I'm riverdancing.

Eh, it's been pointed out a few times that when I play DDR and/or first person shooters in the arcade, I do the wide eyes thing. When I'm playing DDR, usually I'll rub my eyes, blink hard, wink one eye, etc...just so my eyes don't dry out even more than they already are. XD

But then, when people point out my eye thing, I point out that they stick their butts out when they play. XD

So it's a pretty good trade-off.

I can't think of anything weird that Mexy does. He's just hella good. =D

My sentiments exactly.

I have the tendancy to push my hair back behind my ears for no reason while playing, even if they aren't bothering me in any way. I don't think I have any other quirks that stand out.

LOL! I've watched you play several times. I've only noticed two constant quirky habits. One is you tend to tuck your bottom lip in and two you also say "crap" alot. LOL! Bet I have some quirky habit(s) that you don't tell me about.
