== Truly A Fantastic ==
''written by Dan "Remy" Dickinson''
When Konami announced that they were doing surveys to gauge interest in reviving the CS release of IIDX (prior to the release of 7th), there was widespread concern that the survey would not get enough responses to qualify for the game.  This worry was not only felt in the US, but also in Japan.
As a manifestation of this concern, one Japanese player took it upon himself to write anyone who ran any sort of English web page relating to Beatmania.  His email (long since lost) pleaded for US webmasters to inform everyone of the survey and get them to fill it out.  I know he sent nearly the same email to everyone after comparing with a friend, but mine had a small PS that read:
''P.S. I watch dj RYRY superplay video.  It's a fantastic!!''
This was in reference to [http://homepage.mac.com/remy/ryry_murmur_twins_another.mpg a video of Ryan's I had mirrored], and which I found cute enough to tell Ryan about.  I then wrote back in very gentle English, thanking him and asking him some general questions about the Japanese scene.  During the back-and-forth that ensued, questions were asked to be passed onto Ryry about "if doubles were carried out" and "if the pinky extends"; the word "truly" was used a lot as well.
To this day, a number of us will still joke about thinks being "truly a fantastic".
== Peview ==
The 10th CS site launch was notable due to being the first IIDX site with Flash-based audio-visual previews of the new CS songs.
With one small and hilarious problem: the button to click to view them was labeled as '''Peview'''.
