We don't have many unique flos between all the versions of exotic 1-4. IMO you can skip one altogether.
I will comment on the CU. They have smoothed out the action and some transitions via the /changedance command are still too rough. My advice is to use /smokebomb, /pause 2, and then the dance, or version of exotic you wish to use. The bomb effect perfectly masks the rough transition. This is wise to do so you can get to all of our flos which to me should actually be in one dance. Most of exotic 1-4 besides a few unique flos, is repeat material or the belly dancer shimmy.
Personally, I do not care for the belly dancer shimmy that appears as the higher flos. If you do not as well, stick to exotic2 flo 1-2, exotic3 flo 1,flo3, and exotic4 flo 1. Flo 1 in exotic4 takes a good pause of 29 to complete properly. Flo 1 and 3 in exotic3 need /pause 24 IMO. Some folks love flo 2 and 3 in exotic4. It is indeed unique and not to my taste.The turn in place low arm wave appears in exotic2/3 as flo 2.
I am one who makes different dance routines so I can concentrate on talking to patrons and greeting them. I am not the best or fastest of typers.

I personally prefer almost any flourish to the belly dancer shimmy...
But I'm going to add, most of my PATRONS (read male) like the shimmy BEST.

i like to call that flourish "the jiggle" and it's horrible. i only use that flo when i want to go from exo 4 to exo 2 cuz there is no back step flourish from 4 to 3 like there is with 3 to 2 (e.g. flo 2)

I hate the jiggle too. Scip has a tendency to /bandflo it when he is really trying hard to annoy me. I use a smokebomb tocover the changefrom4 to 2.

I really hope he didn't get that from me.

No more so than you got it from Teedo. Which leaves me to concludethat this is a guy thing and should be ignored.

Guys who bandflo that ugly flourish when I'm in the group usually get introduced to my handcrafted T-21
I've never had a repeat offender.

WELL, I'm drunk right now, so you might not want to listen to me, but I think *I* shouldn't be ignored. Because I'm cool. Yeah...

*Brandishes her VKs at Til's lekku* (Yes, we both have VKs and know how to use them - at least on this side of the CU.)

I find that Dathora seems to only want me to use the flourish (the shimmy) when we're dancing at home.... alone. Exotic 4, Flo 3, when done properly can make any girl weak in the knees...

Especially if you call it by /changed exotic4 in the middle of the turn at the end of Exotic 3 flo 3.

Ooooh... [takes notes]
Eshy, how do you figure all these things out? You're the one who gave me WORM ideas during the start of the crawl, too, aren't you?
