MVP Forum Contests
September 22nd, 2009
Two extremely entertaining Forums MVP contests are ending today, and if you haven’t seen them yet you definitely should.
The first is a contest based on creating the best Fiesta-based pick up lines. It’s currently 22 pages long but well worth the read. The pickup lines are just too funny, I was laughing aloud.
The forum thread can be found here.
The second is on the DGO forums because it’s based off making a song out of the words of a song called “It’s You, It’s Me” which is in DGO. The objective is to rewrite the song using your own words and relate it to DGO, including the title. There have been some pretty good entries.
The forum thread can be found here.
If you are wondering what an MVP forum contest is, or what’s the point: Wining an MVP forum contest will earn you a bronze forum MVP badge. Once you win 5 you will get a silver badge, and after 10 a shiny gold badge will be yours.

DGO is Closed, Now What?
September 14th, 2009
Got a craving to play DGO that you just can’t satisfy?
Well how do you think all of our characters are feeling?

They are probably wandering the streets looking for something to dance to, completely miserable.
Don’t worry! We’re working our hardest to get OBT going–more songs, more dances, more everything.
Make sure to post on the DGO forums so we know what to change. Even if you never played, tell us why!

DGO CBT2 Opens Today!
September 4th, 2009
Can’t wait until 3:00 PM to play?
Want to get a sneak peek at some of the new features? Then check out the preview video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwN9dsO7A9Y
The 6 key mode can get quite difficult at times.
Also in the advanced channel try the regular 4 key mode or 4 key x 2 mode, and you’ll notice that they’ve made it so you have to press up and down at the same time, which doesn’t exist in any of the other channels.
I am still trying to figure out the best way of hitting both of these arrows. It seems like a flat middle finger across both is a little bit easier than trying to press each arrow with the tip of a finger.
Get ready to play at 3! I’ll be on.

Dance Groove CBT2 and Tournament Recap
August 25th, 2009
Although most of you already know that CBT2 for DGO will begin September 4th, and that there will new features including a more difficult 6 key mode in the advanced channel, I’d like to share a little inside information about the game.
We sent a survey out to everyone who played DGO in CBT1 and out of the people that completed it, over 95% were looking forward to CBT2. This basically means that if you haven’t tried DGO yet you should. It’s shocking how fun and addicting the game really is to everyone.
The tournament we had in the Outspark office was so much fun for everyone, even though my team got second place instead of first T.T
We had an elimination style tournament bracket with 9 teams of 3 competing.
Here’s a screen shot of the results of the championship match, you might recognize some of the names.

Remember to apply for DGO CBT2! I’ll see you guys in the advanced channel.
