New here. Hello! :P

[rawr_noozle]

Hey guys. I just joined today and just now got around to posting because my fingers have been glued to the arrows for the past few hours.

I'm 21 years old, female and from Maryland. A friend told me about this site when I mentioned how much I like DDR, and I am terribly glad I found it because I've only been playing DDR in the arcades and this gives me somewhat of a fix, lol

I've been using just one hand and I seem to be doing fine I suppose. I've pretty much gotten down the all beginner/very easy/easy songs. Still practicing them though

I've actually tried with two hands but I can't seem to do as well or quite figure out how to do it right, so I suppose I'll just stick with one.

I don't really have any questions or anything, just a little hello to you guys

Welcome to FFR, and regarding the 2-hand thing.. here's how most of us do it.
Two methods.
Place, with your left hand, your left index finger on the DOWN arrow on the keypad. Place your left middle finger on the LEFT arrow on the keypad. Place, with your right hand, your right index finger on the UP arrow on the keypad. Place your right middle finger on the RIGHT arrow on the keypad.
Second method:
Use your index fingers.. like real DDR.

Thanks for that I finally got the hang of the two hand thing. Definitely seems easier than one hand. Plus it makes it easier for me to space out while playing, lol

Do you know of how many others do that? I keep spacing out while playing, but I can still hit the right keys anyway even while not quite paying full attention. It's hypnotic or something. *shrug*

I used to do that a lot, and then I'd realize that I just FC'd a whole section that was hard (well for me) and then I'd screw up on something easy :-/

I almost forgot! Welcome and have fun!
