Pump Haven :: Dance Games Film Hollywood Premiere !
11:19 CST :: 10/08/2011 |

Time for some big-time promotion for Pump !!!
Saturday, October 22nd is the date Andamiro and Pump will be partnering with the filmmakers of a new dance games short film/music video called "It's Nothing Personal." -- in 3D. They will be staging a Hollywood-style World Premiere in the L.A. suburb of Burbank, complete with red carpet events and Hollywood youth stars. The current plan we've been working on is to have some elite Pump players giving Pump exhibitions/demos using the new model Pump machine(s) out on the red carpet for all to see. Maybe we'll be teaching some of the stars, too...who knows? haha. We'll also have our players performing at the VIP afterparty, after the screenings.
Our performance roster includes 2 WPF freestylers (Smidget and Bruce Leroy), and WPF 2011 speeder Matt Miller, among others.
One thing to note is that while a Pump machine (FX model) is used in the film, references to Pump are removed, and no Pump songs or BGAs are used (they use original stuff), to make it more dance games generic.
Dan Harris, the film's director, has invited the dance community to attend the first screening (though not to perform, haha), so if any of you are in the area (or plan to be) you can request free tickets at their website. You need to join as a member at that site first, and then you can RSVP for free tickets, as long as they last ! Tickets won't get you into the private afterparty, but you should be able to see the other events beforehand, as well as the screening.
Note also that this is only the beginning. Dan has bigger plans afterward, including making a full-length film out of this, as well as a reality TV series. Pump tournaments in various cities could also be involved. Maybe one (or more) of us might even get cast to be in the full-length film and/or TV series. Anything could happen ! Realize also that the film's producer, Mark Harris, has an impressive Oscar pedigree, winning a Best Picture Academy Award as one of the producers of "Crash", among other prestigious projects.
Anyway, the official Press Release just came out for our World Premiere event. See it here.
RSVP for tickets here (limit 2 tickets per user...if you have extra friends that want to go, please tell them to register and RSVP themselves) : http://www.idancemachine.com/
Hope some of you can join us for this fun event !! And bring your cameras for the red carpet !!

Pump Haven :: Some site fixes.
20:39 CST :: 8/23/2011 |
|
We recently had a case of vandalism in the locations database. Some reject with no life decided to spend several hours over several days creating fake locations and altering existing ones. I have fixed that. We now allow the addition of CX and TX locatons, so if you know of any existing locations with these machine types, please add or edit them accordingly. Also, if you were unable to post or register in the forums in the past, you should now have the ability to do so. Just make sure that you send an allowance request in the media database if you haven't done so yet to gain full access to the site's contents.
To those who haven't been kept in the loop, Fiesta EX is now on version 1.40. This version adds the full version of Interference by Doin, among other things. A new version of PumBi has been released, now giving players the ability to buy charts, mods, noteskins, and more.
Have fun!

Pump Haven :: U. S. Pump Festival 2011 in Vegas !
04:21 CST :: 6/09/2011 |
|
ANNOUNCING : USPF 2011 in spectacular LAS VEGAS, NEVADA !!

This is the national tournament for Pump It Up which will award FREE TRIPS* to China to represent the USA at WPF 2011 !! World Pump Festival (WPF) is the world championship for Pump, where our USPF winners will be competing against other national champions from invited countries around the world, in order to crown this year's world champs !!
The event will be held on Saturday, July 2nd, at the amazing Gemini Arcade Palace, which has been wowing music game fanatics in the short year that it's been open (check out their extensive lineup of rhythm games on their website --
http://www.gemini-arcade-palace.com/ ).

This is during the long July 4th holiday weekend, so this provides plenty of time to experience the wonders of Vegas as well (there's plenty of sightseeing, shows, shopping, and of course gambling....a side trip to the Grand Canyon might also be appealing to some).
In keeping with the holiday weekend, the arcade plans to have some indoor barbecue for the players, cajun-style, for a nominal cost. We're also working on a special guest appearance -- Cein Lee, WPF 2006 Freestyle winner !!
We certainly realize that this is very short notice for everyone, but please realize that there wasn't going to be any USPF at all this year, until the generous folks at Gemini Arcade Palace offered their proposal at the last minute, to save the day ! Granted, some will not be able to attend due to the late date, but we and Andamiro still wanted to offer this to the USA community. Because of this, we remain an official WPF country. <!--emo&:)--> '><!--endemo-->'><!--endemo-->'><!--endemo-->'><!--endemo-->'><!--endemo-->'><!--endemo-->'><!--endemo-->'><!--endemo-->'><!--endemo-->
The Gemini staff runs tournaments regularly with their music games, and will be handling the mechanics of USPF. We will be using their new-model CX Pump machine, which has fantastic pads (the old style pads, not the new, fyi). The software version will be Fiesta EX. The Speed tournament will have separate male and female divisions. It is an open tournament (any player can enter) and will be Round Elimination style, with an initial qualifier song that all entrants will play. The top 16 qualifiers only (top machine scores) will advance to the next round. Then the top 8 scorers in that round advance, the top 4 in the next round, and so on. Upon reaching the Semifinal (where 4 players remain), players must switch over to Nightmare songs (now called Doubles in Fiesta EX) for this round and the Final Round. For the Final Round, an additional condition is that it will be best 2-out-of-3 (first player to win 2 songs). We will follow WPF official rules. WPF rules include selecting songs using the "Random for WPF Mode” section of the Fiesta EX software. Note also that bar use is now allowed if a player wishes, according to WPF rules (please check the complete rules at www.piugame.com which also has the official WPF song list we'll be using). Players can enter either Speed OR Freestyle, not both.
For the Freestyle division, due to the inadequate time left for player preparation of choreographies, we will not award a WPF trip in Freestyle (2 different songs must be prepared from the official WPF songlist for that). Instead, we will still have a Freestyle competition with other prizes (see below), where the player performs just one song. Also, the player (or 2-person team) can use any song on Fiesta EX (except from the Shortcut, Remix, Full, and Mission Zones). Players can only enter Speed OR Freestyle, not both.
EDIT -- there was concern if our Freestyle players would have enough time to prepare WPF-level routines. Realize that Andamiro is forking over ALOT of money to fly WPF players across the globe and back, not to mention hotel/meals/etc. They certainly deserve some return on their "investment" in the WPF players, so they don't want to just blindly hand out the trips to just anyone, and given our special situation with little time for our players' preparation, the feeling was the USA would not be awarded a WPF trip for our Freestyle winner.
However, a nice compromise has been reached. Here's the deal we are offered: If we have a decent amount of Freestyler entrants at USPF, we will send video of all the routines to Andamiro. They will review them and then decide if they can invite our winner to WPF. So, our winner has a decent shot now !!
Entry fee is $20 and may include a special T-shirt (working on that...if not, fee may be reduced a bit). Prizes will be WPF trips for 1st place in both Male Speed and Female Speed. Cash from the entry fees of each division (minus a small house percentage to help defray expenses) will be split among the top 3 finishers of each division (1st place = 70%, 2nd place = 20%, 3rd place = 10%). Exclusive Pump merchandise (!) will also be distributed as prizes, based upon the amount of items we receive from Andamiro. Freestyle division prizes will follow the same format, minus the WPF trip, as already mentioned.
Registration begins at 9 AM thru 11:30 AM, with the tournament starting at 12 NOON. Warm up games will be available on the machine during registration.
For anyone that would be coming with parents that might need convincing to take you to USPF, remind them that it's in VEGAS, so they'll be anything but bored while you're at the tournament all day ! So, please join us for the big event this Independence Day holiday weekend ! Make your travel plans now !!
*Free trips to WPF include round-trip airfare, hotel, meals, and transport within China. Winners must obtain (and pay for) their own passport and travel visa.
