Only YOU know what really happened during your top secret dance. So spill the beans, if you dare!
This is a new challenge, TSDOers: Can you rate your own secret dance activation?
Choreopower-ups tell you how awesome, cool, inspiring, or amazing
other people think your dancing is. But we need to know how YOU felt during your dance quests and dance-offs. So from now on, every time you upload a DQ or DO video, please rate your own activation on a scale from 0 to 10, based on how much dance…

There's a lot happening on TSDO. Which is awesome. And slightly addicting. But this is no quick-step competition. You can take it any pace you like and still be part of the secret. There's no way to fall behind in TSDO. There's only way to adventure ahead.
You're on your own adventure. Most dance quests never expire. And if you miss one dance-off, don't worry. There's always another one coming... So take it one quest and one dance-off at a time. And know this: your alliance has your back,
wh…

What reputation is your alliance getting?
Guilt-Edged Blonde had the rep for beauty and courage right now, while The Scorched Face is known for humor and awesomeness. I'll Be Waiting has a rep for style and cleverness. Who Said I Was Dead? seems to be going after the exuberance market and competing for the most awesomeness, but there's still a long way to go until we figure out who they really are... Meanwhile Forever After and Trouble-Chaser have no reputation yet because their members haven't…

Activating the dance secret requires a combination of 11 choreopowers. Individual dancers and alliances will earn their reputations based on what Choreopowers they increase the most.
Earning Choreopowers
Your choreopowers are earned by completing dance quests and dance-off challenges.
All powers are awarded by other members of TSDO, in the comments on your videos. There is no limit to how many Choreopower-ups you can receive for each video! But each person can only offer you +1 for eac…

As you try to activate the elusive dance secret, you'll earn Dance Quest Points and Dance-Off Points. As you earn more points, you'll level up. The higher the level, the more dance secret you've activated.
As you complete quests and dance-off challenges, you'll also develop your 12 Choreopowers. Your reputation in TSDO is determined by which Choreopowers you earn, and how fast. And as your Choreopowers increase, you'll be promoted up through the ranks of your alliance.
Everything will be track…

Each alliance will need a SECRET SIGN.
The secret sign is a super-short dance move that alliance members will embed in EVERY future quest or dance-off.
The sign should take 3 seconds or less to flash. It should be awesome. But it should also be learnable by all of your alliance members. No black belt ninjitsu moves or fancy turns, okay?
Depending on how fast you are, you will either INVENT THE SIGN or you will DISCOVER THE SIGN
INVENT THE SIGN

There are two technological requirements for activating the dance secret: an Mp3 player and a video camera.
However, if some unsavory characters ankled with your gear, don't worry. You can still pursue the dance secret WITHOUT an Mp3 player or a video camera.
IF YOU DON'T HAVE AN Mp3 PLAYER, you will be a SUPER-SECRET MEMBER of TSDO.
Super-secret members are limited to sound-on dance quests and sound-on dance-offs in private environments where you can blast your music. If you are able to remov…

"¿Quién te quita lo bailado?"*
