Do you have spots?

It seems like a vague question at first...spots on what you may be asking. Well the object in question this day is our beloved mouse.

Do you have visibly worn spots on your mouse from finger placements? After near a year of solid use I have only made one solid one on the right clicker very close to the middle of the mouse it self.

Anybody else with better beaten mice?

yes, I have them on my right and left buttons. As well as on every one of my keyboard keys. However, I do not have the "gamer's mark" on my laptop..... I guess I need to play more.....

I will go into the zoo.
I want to see it.
Yes, I do

Why should they
put you in the zoo?
what good are you?
what can you do?


And now his spots are orange!
say!
He looks very good
that way.

Green spots! as green
as green can be!

And now
when I say "one two, three"
All my spots are back on me!

My mice usually break before they get any wear on them, I just bought my first razer (abyssus) though so hopefully that will change.

On my old keyboards though entire letters were worn out, all the common SC hotkeys.

yes, and especially the big edge below the keys on the keyboard. All the way to the left of the spacebar is like a polished piano. pretty cool since the keyboard is matte black everywhere else

I have a Samsung DT-35 and almost all of the keys are completely worn after years and years of use. The only letters which are left are Q, Y, U, I, H, J, K, and X. The rest are completely worn away and everyone always says "You seriously need a new keyboard" every time they use my computer.

But they don't understand how it feels to play SC with it.

I had a grey Yahoo! mouse from when I first started SC like '99 and it broke in '07, there were spots on all of it besides palm. Wish I had a pic lol.

yes, I've had both my mouse and keyboard for about 4 years. On my keyboard the WASD and 0 keys are rubbed off . On my mouse not as much.

Not a single one, my mouse in made finger mark-proof. Not saying why and not saying how.

I think I may know what this mark you speak of is...but I am not sure as I have not heard the term before. My laptop is large enough for the mouse to sit next the the little touchpad on the case itself, leading to that area being extremely worn and desurfaced.

Thankfully when I sent my laptop in to get the screen fixed that fixed that, and gave me a new shiny keyboard with glitter put into the keys so they shine a bit. Pretty nifty I'd say.

Since it's been back the horrid mark has returned quickly though T.T

my mouse hasn't worn at all, and I've used it a LOT, like at least 4k games of sc...
after a long marathon of sc, it builds up some gunk at the ends of the buttons though, probably because my hands sweat a little when I play.
My 5 key is shiny, because that's my main hatchery and whenever I'm scared in a game i just go back home
but really, has anyone REALLY been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?
