There has to be some people out there that know what I'm talking about. Sometimes you will sit down to play a game and your fingers just don't know what to do, its almost like a nervous feeling, but is mostly physical, and for the life of you you just can't get into a rhythm of smooth actions.

For me it seems to happen when I've had 1 beer or alot of caffeine.

Beer and caffeine do opposite things, why would both upset your natural rhythm?

Well you wouldn't expect both to give you "jitters", but it's pretty to envision them messing up your fingers one way or another, surely.

I have that all day nonstop.

But mine is a massive perpetual anxiety attack as a result of my disorders so it's probably not related to what you have.

Actually if its only one beer... I doubt that it has any real effect unless his alcohol tolerance is horrendously low. The beer reaction might be psychological, though I can imagine being hyped on caffeine and being buzzed as a similar feeling.

No idea, but 1 beer seems to do the same effect as like 4 cups of coffee for my fingers.

If you drink more does the jittering go away, or get worse?

Lol just from the blog title I thought u were getting the jitters cause of the MSL finals tonight O_O

I get that feeling when its my first game of the day. Like my heart starts beating really fast and I have this numb feeling in my hands, but it goes away once the game starts and all my focus goes into the game rather than noticing nerves and whatnot.

Jaedong :D

Play a lot, take a deep breath before each game, try not to think too much once game starts.

It doesn't happen to me often. It's just the occasional night.
