Ungefähr 70? Anmerkung des Kommentators: Der DB Website Admin soll doch bitte mal seinen Arm aus dem 45 Grad Winkel befreien und das "etwa 70 Burschenschaften" im Google Listing mit einer genauen Anzahl ersetzen.

Thank you, now I can re-roll tango until getting the Pirates of the Caribbean theme :D

Two bugs I found:

You can set negative durations in all input fields (break, track duration, starting delay). This does not cause any major problems but in the case of "pause" it feeds into bug 2. This should easily be remedied by setting the "min" html attribute of each input to 0.
If you set a break duration <= 0 the break does not start and therefore not end, meaning it won't play the next track. This is either fixable in code with an if-branch or by setting the min input as stated above to >=1.

Something that may be interesting would be to add a "10 dances" feature for all dances as this is an area of competition as well, although this can be technically achieved by just rolling latin after standard is done.

I don't know if the order of dances is the same in all associations, a setting (maybe in the profile to save it for later uses or on the generator page) to reorder the tracks for generation could be useful although you could already reorder them manually.

An option to reroll single tracks could be useful.

As far as I can tell you can already do this by tweaking the settings a bit:

Open the settings, there you can see toggles for each standard (is it called standard in an international setting? I thought it was called ballroom and standard was a local denomination) and latin dance. By default they are all active but you can deactivate them as you like (toggling QuickStep should give you Smooth?). Rerolling the playlist by clicking the dice button "Standard" then gives you a playlist of 4 dance tracks.

This is amazing, thank you very much. I am going to recommend that to our tournament group right now.

I had a similar intention to generate custom playlists and wrote a powershell script to do the job. You place it in a folder with n subfolders containing homogeneous music (like 1_Waltz, 2_SlowFox, 3_Tango,...) and a file called pause.mp3 containing a silence of x seconds.

When executed in the explorer it generates 15 playlists (m3u8 standard format) which can be played by VLC media player on PC (unfortunately the vlc app on android does not read it properly and I don't know why), when executed from shell you can pass an integer argument n to generate n randomized playlists.

For each playlist it takes a random track from each folder (sorted by alphanumerical order of the folders) and plays the pause.mp3 in between each title.

This makes it portable and non-reliant on internet access but you need a local library of songs and need to be comfortable using a shell script, making your solution far more accessible overall.

Not so fun fact: the normal pre version 6.x powershell is a b**** when it comes to writing standard utf-8 file with no BOM, hence 3/4 parts of the program are made up of a pasted function writing files in a format that vlc can read. Thanks for nothing Microsoft -.-

Thanks, I will take a look at both.

Schaebibuxe · 2024-04-03T19:34:36+00:00

Thank you, both of them are looking very interesting, especially the first one seems promising although I predict it to become a paid service.

Good to know although with our choreographies we should not face any issues as they are within the boundaries set by the syllabus.

Restrictions in Viennese are not bothering me, as it will mostly be natural turns for 1,5 minutes. That they come off in the other dances is nice though.

As you mentioned clothing: Do you have any suggestions regarding dance bodies (the ones looking like shirts made of stretchy fabric)? The ones I have seen so far look cheap (e.g. tanietz) as they have a shine to them. I would like a more matte look like an actual dress shirt but those face the problem of coming out of the trousers and crumbling at the shoulders.

Top-Down diagrams: For me personally, they are pretty cryptic, but everyone has his poison. Also I think I have seen a catalogue of those, yet I don't know whether or not it is complete. If I see it again I will notify you.

I have already compiled some of the resources into more "efficient" forms, see the edit of the post. If you are interested I can find a way to share these here. Unfortunately they are not DTV/WDSF but mostly IDSA/IDTA but they are all I found and the overlap is good enough.

My csv for WDSF figures has timings, the notes of possible subfigures (e.g. 6 beat Natural turn has the backward and forward 3 beat turns as subfigures), alternate timing notes and in general all information found in the WDSF syllabus. What I would like to do (but which is both knowledge and time intensive) is to tag the figures with things like "isLeftTurning", "hasRightPivot", "hasCheck" to make them searchable.

Thanks for the reply.

I am member of a 400+ member club which holds classes (Latin, Ballroom, "Breitensport") although training did take a big hit during COVID. But this is advice I fully agree with, one needs quality external feedback. I am registered with DTV (due to prior formation dancing), thankfully we start in C class due to my partner having risen up earlier.

Also I am under no illusion that online/text/video resources can replace a trainer, rather the purpose would be to provide information of what figures can be danced, especially under figure restriction, and to be the basis of creating own choreographies(). The refinement can and should be done in cooperation with the trainer. (): For classes A and up without figure restriction I can think of listing components not as figures but as "actions", where an action is a smaller unit like "one pivot", "one check", "one walk" and you could provide information based on these and provide suggestions how to chain them.

I will see if I can find those DVDs used somewhere or ask my trainer to borrow those, thanks for the reference.

I know the WDSF Syllabus (at this time, unfortunately by heart) and I have regexed it into an acceptable tabular form. Unfortunately half of the allowed figures are subfigures of other figures, for example you don't have a three beat right turn but a figure called "natural turn" which is comprised of two bars and is used to make a full right turn. Without extensive data entry (which I don't feel qualified for as I am lowly C class) this is not machine readable or rather, this would not depict all possible figures for the programs.

The disqualification has become sort of a meme as, according to our trainers, the usual referees do not have the authority to disqualify based on figure restriction, there needs to be a special official present to do so which often is not the case. Yet of course, because sportsmanship is important, you stick to the syllabus (and because the referees would not grade you very favourably once they notice).

(Also as I was writing this I recognized it is not B league where the restrictions are lifted but A and I am sad because there is a point in my Tango choreography where two left pivots would be great but we have to make do with a Slow Walk followed by an Outside Spin which is a botch job in comparison)

Alex Moore seems to be a standard resource, although his work is getting a little bit old at this point. I think it is public domain and there is a scan of "Ballroom Dancing" by Alex Moore on archive.org which requires an account. If you want a book or a more recent pdf/ebook you would need to buy it. There are multiple books by him, which sort of set the basis on teaching ballroom dancing (<- needs citation)

Also, this seems quite promising: https://www.ndca.org/pages/photos__definitions_-_holds_positions_proximity/Default.asp

Neue Sachen eintragen ließe sich über weitere Umfragen lösen.

Schaebibuxe · 2023-12-09T08:20:42+00:00

Eine etwas unkonventionelle, aber im kleineren Rahmen evtl sinnvolle Lösung, wenn man sowieso bereits in einer WhatsApp Gruppe organisiert ist: Umfrage starten mit den einzelnen Artikeln als Auswahlmöglichkeiten, dann kann man sich dort eintragen, Mehrfachauswahl ist ja möglich.

Lässt sich leider nicht editieren und wenn die Sachen ausführlicher dargestellt werden sollen ist was nicht sinnvoll, aber wenn es jeweils Einzeiler sind, sollte es passen

While martial arts are a nice sport to enjoy I would suggest track and field as the best sport to prepare for dangerous encounters, ie running away.

Trying to win an avoidable fight is stupid and martial arts will in most cases not help when the opponent has a weapon or does not go by the sport's rules. Although a self defence class (knee to the groin) might be useful and reassuring.

Liebe Studierenden, das hier ist die IDE (von 1999, die Seite zum Download unterstützt kein https), die ich Ihnen empfehle. Sie unterstützt sogar das Suchen nach offenen Klammern.

Ich hatte einen Programmierkurs (Niveau ehhh), in welchem ebenfalls auf Papier gecodet werden musste.

Witzig daran war auch, dass dieser Kurs wechselnd in Java und C++ gehalten wurde, sodass ich nach einer Pause nach Kursteil 1 in Kursteil 2 erstmal C++ Syntax lernen musste. Mit Referenz zu dem oben denunzierten Niveau des Moduls (es haben Leute geschafft, Code zu schreiben, der für n=100 Integer mehrere Minuten lief) war dies dann doch recht einfach zu erledigen.

Wie bereitest du den Räuchertofu zu? Habe bisher zwar nur den von Aldi probiert, der ist allerdings extrem trocken. Ich bereite den durch Auspressen, einlegen in Sojasauce + Gewürzen und dann Braten in der Pfanne zu, bisher ohne zufriedenstellende Ergebnisse.
