<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>Went to play 7th mix a local nickle arcade. 15 cents for 3 songs! =o) Anyway played alot. Met people like usual. I beat alot of songs i had never done before. D2R, Tsugaru, Break down, Only take a minute (extended remix), Kakumei, all of these on maniac. So 3 new catas under my belt. Passed some other songs but can't remember right now. I got so tired, my whole body is swore. Played so many hours straight. But hey it was fun. Getting much better, even though i took a month off DDR.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>besides which calling them "catas" like "katas" (forms) from Japanese martial arts is really pretentious and honestly makes me ashamed to have even partially understood something so uncool...

oh, and I finished my pad today.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I can't hang in DDR anymore, no stamina. Too fat now, out of shape. I can pass any one particular song on 7th mix but when it gets to the 2nd stage I get too tired -_- +50 pounds in 2 years = tough to move now.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I don't have the time right now to play, and I really lose the urge to play after one stage or if there's a crowd, I tough it out for one entire game and then go die somewhere in the corner... huff huff better start exercising come fall</div>

<div style='font: ; text-align: left; '>Ok, in the early mixes they named some of the higher step songs. 9 steps were Catastrophics, or Catas. The name stuck</div>

WOW good day of DDR 7th mix ;o)

WOW good day of DDR 7th mix ;o)

what the fuck is a cata? i'm guessing it has something to do with how many songs of 2nd mix you can pass on maniac...and no one on the ddr boards who keep bragging about them seems to understand that nobody really gives a fuck...
