Big One, also known as "B1G", is a competition and event of the dance game "Pump It Up (video game)" created and organized by Raul Jimenez and local staff of every edition. Its main premise is to be the most inclusive event in the world where, unlike other events, all those who come to the place of the competition can participate without previous classification. In the last edition, attendance records were broken where more than 160 players representing more than 15 countries came to Lima to compete.

COMPETITIONS

NOTE: From 2008, Players can only compete in 1 category.

Speed

The players have to get the highest possible score. Technical players focus on timming and patterns while minimizing combo breaks as this lowers the score multiplier. Players in this category play the most difficult songs in the game. In the last edition of B1G One this was the difficulty table of the songs per round:

	MEN	WOMEN
First Round	Single 19-21	Single 17-19
Round of 16	Single 22-23	Single 20-21
Round of 8	Single 24-25	Single 22-23
Semifinal	Double REMIX OR FULL V. 24-25	Double 22
Final (Best 2 of 3)	Double 25-28	Double 23-24

Freestyle

The rating card is as follows:

Categoria	Points	Notes
Dance & Skill	50	Execution, flow, synchronization, power moves and more.
Originality	25	Originality of the song, dance style and choreography.
Appearance	15	Costumes and makeup.
