Mainly minor stuff like sore muscles due to not warming up properly.

But most of my 'injuries' come from playing double; mainly slipping off the pads or stumbling when I get tired.

CSFIL (SM) - At the beginning of the song I felt the ball of my right foot 'tickle' a bit. I ignored it and continued playing...until the end stream where the pain was getting unbearable and I had to stop.

I looked down and saw that skin was torn off the ball of my foot. That taught me a lesson not to play barefoot again, as well as not ignoring 'that feeling.'

Eeeeevil 5th mix machine ate my quarter yesterday, so I whacked the coin slot and hurt my hand. Might've refractured it, dammit. Got the quarter back though

Playing Holic doubles heavy, tripped and faceplanted into the machine. Playing another double, slipped, went into a split on the pads. Staggered about for a few minutes after those... must remember to practice doubles before leaping into one.

Ermm.. Well today at the arcade, I tripped, and pretty much had a bellyflop against the screen.. and then a couple days ago, I was messing around on the bar, ended up falling/swinging around really fast, banging against the bottom half of the bar and knocking my head on the pad..

Hmm, playing double seems a lot more risky.

When playing double I dislocated my knee (happens to me a bit) whilst stepping behind and across.

Swollen knee, no DDR for 5 days

I was getting withdrawal symptons by the 3rd day.

Must.... play.... must play.... DDR. Must play DDR... nowwwwwwwwww.....

I played at home on Endless Heavy on SM AutoPlay, with the Extreme Course. I lasted I think like 30 songs. Then I went to sleep. When I woke up the next morning, I couldn't get up without falling. Yay me.
