Exotic 4-8... seems a bit repetative 
I have one question... If exotic is the last dance, a dancer can achieve, why is it has only 3 valid flourishes? The dance itself is very nice, but why don't they add to the "Master Dancer" flourishes. I would think as a Master dancer I've earned it.

Flourishes I hate, hm... Well I don't hate them so much but there are a few that I think could be better, given that I am a professional dancer. And there is one that just irks me because of what it replaced.
My list:
C
My list:
- Poplock flo 5 -- I don't hate this so much as I loved the old one! It was my favorite poplock flourish. Got chuckles and laughs every time I did it. You know the one I mean, where you flop over and then back up, and then lean to the side and do a wave to the crowd. I loved it. I used to use it to wave to people... target them, punch it, and then type /wave at just the right time. It used to go over BIG... and I can't do it anymore .
- Basic 2 flo 2 -- I call this the "Umma Thurman" move since it starts out similar to the one she did in Pulp Fiction that made such a big deal (why I will never know -- all she did was put her fingers in front of her eyes, lol). It's fine until the end, and it looks like Dejah is tripping over her own feet. Or over an invisible turtle perhaps.
- Formal flo 5-8 -- these are just goofy looking. I rarely do them.

Here's mine. They may be just me but things that seem sort of out of place while I'm performing.
Basic Dance /flo 3
I don't hate the whole flourish. I just hate that part where you have neck spasms and your head is jerking over your right shoulder several times. ummmm... why?
Footloose /flo 5
Called it the compass on my dance card just because "who ripped one" didn't seem appropriate for all audiences. Its a silly movement. I do like the smoke effect and pants on fire suggestions though lol
Footloose /flo 6
The Big X. It'd like it better if my head wasn't constantly staring at the ground. Am I performing to ants on the ground or something?
Formal /flo 5
All the hopping around like a monkey is rather silly and doesn't fit in very well with the other elegant movements of the dance.
Formal /flo 7
Another silly lookin rather non-formal looking flourish to me. Maybe its just me though but formal seems it should be more ummm organized looking and not so much I feel like jumping around and swinging my arms all the frak over.
Exotic /flo 4-8
This is not exotic. Its Rhythmic /flo 3. Remove it kthx.
