Most over-used step pattern used in ITG

Actually, the thread was going fine until this post:

So Arctic, I can't present my opinion because I'm in disagreement until someone offers solid proof of stepcharts being overused?

Whatever.

God I love it, you accuse us of being the whiners, AND you're all pissed because you think someone isn't letting you present your opinion. Oh noes.

Irony^2

How about step jumps. Probably 2 out of every 10 itg songs has a run of step jumps.

Agreed. ITG1 + Kyle Ward = step jumps.

He got less jumpy in ITG2 thankfully

Agreed on step jumps. I used to dislike them (and thus, many ITG1 charts) until I learned how to do them right.

So um, is it bad that awhile ago I was watching Family Guy, and when Quagmire came on, I thought something to the effect of "Whoa, It's AA Bob!" (I don't remember if the exact thought was "It's AA Bob" or "It's AA Bob's avatar", but I don't think it matters in this case)?

Yay. People agree with me on the step jumps.

Something I see used a lot is a burst of 5 16ths using up and right, up and left, ect.

I also agree with Remember December being very repetitive, But then again the song itself is repetitive, so it fits I guess.

I remember a lot of people complaining that a lot of ITG1 stepcharts had a lot of left-facing patterns (RDUL, RLUD, etc.) and almost no right-facing patterns.

Repeated in-place jumps (bad for songs that don't go with headbanging), 5-step LRLRL patterns, cut-and-paste skips (that aren't even flipped/mirrored at all), many songs that tend to back-and-forth facing either front-left or front-right, without much mixing up thereof, and pivots that use one foot on one arrow at a time, and the other back and forth on two. Somehow, it's almost always the same foot, too (left on one, right between two). Freeze-step, freeze-step happens quite a bit as well, not to mention having a few freezes in irrelevant 1/16's (even Zodiac doesn't hold it long enough to justify it's existance, and it's not particularly confusing in Funk Factory either... though at least that -looks- cool on 2.5-3x).

Anybody else notice that the second choruses on 90% of the songs is just "the first chorus on mirror"?

Also, I think it would be a trip to have a marathon course based on directional mods. Am I alone there? Or perhaps a "Easy" stage course, filled with add-mods (Big, Skippy, etc.)...
