Straight from the book, page 69:-

If you possess the Calfskin Boots special item, there's a chance that you'll perform the correct maneuver even if you make a mistake. Dancing Slippers give you an even better chance. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/onya.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="onya.gif" />

Funny what happens when you read the book, you can all thank me later, now to find those two items <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/bookish.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":mm" border="0" alt="bookish.gif" /> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/onya.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="onya.gif" />

Funny, I knew those items helped, but I never took the time to read exactly WHAT their affects were. Cool - and I thought that I was just THAT good <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
items?

So dude, did you get said items and how? <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/bookish.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":mm" border="0" alt="bookish.gif" />


Cheers <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
I `ve bought both items in a tavern somewhere. It´s more than good to have them. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/onya.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="onya.gif" />
 
I got mine is a tavern as well... would seem countrproductive for a Governor's daughter to give them to you, seeings how you'd use them to woo other ladies <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
Wellll....unless she just wanted you to wear them for her. My fiancee's always buying all sorts of things she thinks ill look good in, regardless of wether i like them or not lol. She'll just lay the guilt trip on me if i dont wear whatever it was <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whippa.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":whipa" border="0" alt="whippa.gif" />
 
I have all the special items in the game. I guess there are 31 or 34. The first and the better version. Dancing boots and dancing shoes. Man dancing sucks! I simply cannot impress the ladies.... my dancing is horrible. Make a trainer which allows me to perform a perfect dance lol <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Kidnapping? How do I do that? Do I have to sneak in the town? Sneaking sucks.... takes too long time.... Well I do not have the problem with the money.... i plunder smuggler ships and take out the notorious pirates.... It brings a lot.... Damn.... I tried to dance again.... I give it up. Too hard for me.

Dude, I am getting better but woth the really HOT babes it is too fast, where I lose it is when they do a turn straight after a move looks like she is beating me up as I am all over the place, I am okay with numpad keys 4 & 6 and 1 & 3 but when I have to use keys 2 & 8 and then try to switch back to the rest I loose it. To be honest I have gievn up with dancing. I say good luck to all those that say they have it and it is easy because (and mabye it is an age thing, corodination etc) I find it impossible. I hope they fix it in the next patch as in make it easier, PLEASE <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

I bought both the boots and the slippers (I think they are sequential upgrades ie you must have the boots first). I think with the boots you have about 1 in 3 shot of pressing the wrong button and still making it, with the slippers maybe 1 in 2. It really helps especially when you're doing good, and they start zooming in and my heart starts beating fast, one fast move and I'm thrown way off.

I think you may not actually get credited for the 'saved moves' but you don't get points taken off. As for the hot babes, I'm only up to attractives right now. You can still score with the plain daughters if you're not too quick, so to make everyone easier (pun intended) in a patch would detract from the hot babes I think, since the difficulty seems to be based on the attractiveness of the girl and not your level (unlike fencing). Definitely one of the strong moments in the game.
 
I agree, marry an ugly one

Yep, gotta keep them happy. Frankly, she should be quivering at the very sight of me... I'm an Adonis for crying out loud!
 
aye, mate <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/bounce.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":b:" border="0" alt="bounce.gif" />
 
Heck, I just figured out WHY I've been having so much trouble with the back and forth moves - it seems that when she holds her hands CLOSE TOGETHER in front of her, she wants you to come FORWARD. When she holds her hands wide apart, she wants you to go BACKWARDS. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":facepalm" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" /> I was doing it the opposite! No wonder I was stumbling over my feet (and HERS!)! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

<img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" /> Seems to me it should be the other way around! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" /> Then again, my nose runs, and my feet smell, so I think I've been built `upside-down`! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" /> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="icon_wink.gif" /> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
