How did you start out?

[Doug31]

I beat Activity Unbroken and then Salad for your Tuesday on my first try when I first started. I FCed Salad of my first day, and I had less than 100 credits! Now I can FC Ingenuity, rarely.

[Dronak]

The concept of the game is simple enough so I just started with the easiest levels and started working my way up. I guess I was OK then. I'm not great and not horrible, just in the middle I think.

I was into SM for quite a while before I ever joined FFR (On my first account which was a REALLY long time ago). So I was halfway decent from the start. As for SM though, starting that I could clear any DDR songs on keyboard, but 10s were a stretch....

[ToshX]

I "I r0xord j0or b0xorz" or whatever you said when I start, considering I was a beginner. I'm not saying that I was really any good, but right off the bat I could FC Terror From Beyond and stuff. The reason why is because before I came here I had about a year of experience with DDR and the controller, and changing to arrow keys wasnt really thath ard for me for some reason. Anyway, I sure did get a lot better. I'm practicing Rondo because the music doesnt get annoying to me and I just find it fun. It also increases my points, my skill, my average credits per game(lol), and just increase my credits, not like I need to, but its just another thing...

I was A'ing flashing 7's on 7k IIDX. Unfortunately when I started FFR I couldn't even pass Mario.

I started playing FFR in late December 2002. I think my first week or so saw me being able to beat Terror From Beyond about half the time, and I was working on Story of Snowman and Sunshine Girl.

I played FFR on and off (but mostly off) for pretty much all of 2003. The best thing I ever did during that time was FC the Yoshi Bonus Level.

Then in late December 2003 I download SM, and have been hooked ever since. Fast forward six and a half months, and you have me now.

I was sux since I had absolutely no Rhythm Action background. It took me a week to pass Mario. This is about August or September 2002, maybe even earlier.

Now, I look back and laugh at how bad I was.

[Moogy]

I started playing DWI about a year ago this month.

Then I found FFR, and, therefore, SM.

[eVILPeeR]

I started off as "sux". I played like a ton of DDR beforehand.. and actually played this one mini-DDR like game before, so I had the rhythm down. I could pass 5 )'s pretty easily. FCing was out of the question with this very slow computer.
And then SM came along.. and well, fastforward to now O.o and you got me.

[jimerax]

I even had trouble to pass songs like DUB-I-DUB basic when I first played DDR simulator,
it was several years ago though.

when I started FFR, I could FC Life Goes On and barely pass Uber Rave or like that.

[Crymson]

When I first started, there weren't too many songs, but after 6 or 7 tries, I could FC Terror From Beyond.

[slayer_drummer]

i sucked............. i played legend of zelda and it took me forever to get to the bonus yoshi round........ when i finally did i randomly hit buttons on the keyboard

[slayer_drummer]

gah!!!! how do ya get your statstics to show????

[CypherToorima]

Heh heh, I remember freaking out when I beat Hellbeat. I was like "OMG I AM TEH ROXORS" but now, it's kind of funny. And then the FOTBB contest rolled around, and I beat that once, and I freaked out again. Good times...
