Yea isnt it kinda dumb to put down a hat or can that says donations??? it is rude and i think ppl would just think ur a loser that cant spend ur own money to play and gotta Mooch off spectators.Plus most of the ppl watching would just give u donations because u can move ur feet really fast and they wouldnt kno a damn thing about the game. But hey thats my opinion

When playing on a Pump It Up DX machine, I'll usually put my sweatshirt on the machine, directly below the screen (because I don't trust people around our arcades), and at least once, I've had someone walk up after watching and throw a buck or two on to it. Meh, stupid people.

I say people make money from playing an instrument on the side of the street is fine, if someone plays ddr to make some money, hey, why not?

The only person to ever give me money for playing DDR was my dad because he's cool like that. I don't ask people for money though, I'd feel too guilty.

I've had other players give me tokens when I've run out of money to get more...but I've never actually put a hat or a cup down for donations. I'm not good enough to get donations yet laugh.gif

I've never put out a can or hat for money, nor have I outright asked for it, but if a spectator comes forward of their own free will and offers me some cash, I won't turn it down. biggrin.gif

I never ask for money. But on some occasions I've given it. A friend was playing on Oni and bombed out early, a mistake, and I walked to the machine, swiped my card and told him to try it again. Once I saw a kid I know at school and his GF playing, and no one was there and I was tired, so I gave them $1.50 worth of tokens for another round.

Once when I was playing at West Edmonton Mall this creepy smelly guy came up to me and wouldn't leave me alone, bought me a game and kept insisting that I play more but I got scared so I ran off to find my dad!
my friends and I will pay for eachother now and then but I've never asked for money.
Wow, a dance dance-athon would be a really cool way to raise money for charity...
