My understanding is that MAX through Extreme use that system (with penalties and considering freezes) internally to calculate your letter grade. The thresholds are a percentage of the total possible DP on the chart without mods, so if you use mods like little or freeze off, you'll end up automatically getting a fairly low grade - often hilariously low such as on things like Exotic Ethnic with freeze off selected.

Ok. But the Oni score in Extreme is just 2x perfect + great, isn't it? I thought that was what was considered DP score. Either way, the simpler calculation is what we're using.

Well, Extreme Oni also has marvelous. I don't remember how that's weighted. It may be worth 3 points. But yes, I don't think Extreme Oni score penalizes for non-combo. Losing a life in Oni mode is penalty enough.

Ok. I'm going to play last week's songs tonight...GOALS!
I will also pick a song for this week since Merk is clearly MIA from life. (There is no life outside of IndyDDR.)
So, for this week, I pick Maximum Overdrive.

True... (Trance Sunrise Mix): 249/38/3/1/0/9 = 554
Do You Remember Me?: 347/34 FC + 15OK = 758

Oh man! I am out of shape. It actually hurt a little bit, but I got it done.
Here's what I got:
So Fabulous So Fierce - 482
Do You Remember Me - 726
true... ~Trance Sunrise Mix~ - 562
Maximum Overdrive - 489
Maximum Overdrive was the only one that I got the FC on, but it wasn't the chart I was thinking of when I picked it. I may have been thinking of More Than I Needed To Know, but I'm not sure on that either.
I'm sure I can do better than these if I play a little more and get some stamina and flexibility back. Right now, my legs are sore and feel like jelly. I am a wreck.
Also, MonMotha, I forgot about the 2x OK in the scoring. So, your true... score should be 554. You didn't list your OKs on Do You Remember Me, but I assume you got all 15 which would make your score 758.

Updated my scores in my post to correspond to 2xOK being included. I did indeed get all 15 freezes on Do You Remember Me.

Guys I actually played DDR yesterday. Holy shit.
I didn't play anything from this thread but I legitimately played for a solid hour to work up a sweat and burn off my fat ass.

Improved So Fabulous So Fierce to 491.
I have it on good authority (I talked to him) that MonMotha is picking Still In My Heart (Momo mix) for this week.
Merk, you're welcome to come back and play and/or pick songs anytime.

I played it. Got the FC on my third attempt. DP of 651. Lots of greats, but I'll come back to this to Make It Better.

Fuuuuuuuuuck alright I'll make an honest effort to play DDR this week.
Tonight I am going to lift, cook some tacos, and I'll take a look at my 2P side so I can do doubles.
