What is the most amount of flourishes you have been able to get in a dance?

I believe you will get 8 hearts around the big one before they repeat. If so, then the best I have done is 11 flourishes in a row.

The most I ever got was around 12 to 13 flourishes in a row.

I'm not a very good dancer. I'm one of those people that gets the rhythm down without ever realizing it and get a long string of flourishes going, and then I do realize what's going on, and that's when I make a mistake.

I'm the same way Cussler. It's humorous, you think to yourself "whoa, look how good I am doing!" and then you screw up.

I usually miss the flourish on the first move of each sequence. Once I know what is coming - and when I have the Calfskin Boots - I typically get a flourish on about every other move. Occasionally, with the right piece of music and a kind partner, I find the rhythm. I've filled two circles of hearts but not much more.

I think my keypad is part of my problem. On my brother's computer I can get long sequences of flourishes much more easily. But on his computer I always stumble on the final move when the music slows down - which is my best move on my own computer.

My personal record so far is 8... well, I never was any good at dancing and I think that the lost city maps would better come from Mendoza, and the diamond necklaces.

I've had 20-24 flourishes before, with the 3/4 time tunes (not the 4/4 ones- yet!)...it's a most satisfying feeling- or relief-to be on that kind of roll, when everything goes right.

I've got rhythm, I've got music, I've got my girl, who could ask for anything more?

The most I've ever had was 13 and then I fumbled and screwed the whole dance over.

I've done better than this, a time or two, but this is the best I've captured in a Screen Shot:



That is a total of 25 in a row.
