Rakudjo@lemmy.world 6 months agoBack in the day - it was certainly quite the deal! I remember that even Pump Speed division at WPF world DQ players for so much as touching the bar. In retrospect, it was such an odd thing for us all to be so particular about - maybe just the newness of the game and maturity of chart design?
You may be interested to know that while bar play has become the norm, some players are still recognized for choosing no bar play at very high levels.

Very interesting! I swore I wasn’t insane and it was a big deal at one point. Thank you for the shared history! It is quite the silly thing now. But boy, I remember quitting a few times when an opponent would start the match, and then quickly reposition to grab the bar as the music started.
Ah that video was a good bridge of nostalgia and gaming interests. These machines have come a long way, and at the same time remained the same.
