Hahahah, I've had that conversation countless times. The worst of it was when I brought it to school when I was done with my project to ladder in class (cool teacher ;P). I had to explain it so many times... probably shouldn't have brought my Qck+ either >_>

haha, i know that feeling..
beought it to class when i thought we were gonna have a tourney, lots of free time, but alass... no one would play me ...

Hahaha, nice. I don't use a mouse bungee though. I just give the cord a bit of slack, and either tape it directly to my desk, or put it under something heavyish. As long as the cord has slack I'm good to go.

I'm sure in 5 years none of this will matter 'cause wireless will be awesome.

cool! the comments are pretty surprising though, i thought a lot more people would have problems with their mouse cord. i absolutely cannot stand any slight tug in any direction on my mouse while i'm playing because it just fucks me up sooooooooo badly. i have to resort to making intricate loops with the cord around and around until i get just the right balance of weight and slack.

Well when you slapped down for your 30-80? dollar mouse 10 dollar moues budge so your cord doesn't become all frayed by your desk might be worth it. But i mean if you slapped down for your 5$ microsoft free with my dell mouse why bother

I thought it was to have the proper slack amount on your cord and to prevent the cord weight from affecting your mouse placement.

ie. If I have a really light mouse and a rather long mouse cord, when the cord hangs off the desk and I let go of the mouse, the weight of the cord pulls the mouse and messes up its position.


I've never had a mouse cord get frayed by a desk... makes me wonder what desk you use

well i own a G5 and its cord is not hard rubber like most mouse it's nylon braid and it totally gets frayed after 3+ yr of usage, also ppl who own g5 rarely need a bungee because of the adjustable weight feature that keeps the mouse from sliding off on its own (that and braided cord grabs onto the edges of a desk better, meaning its length will stay the amount u pulled out)

qck+ ?


Big. Ass. Mousepad.

http://www.steelseries.com/int/products/surfaces/qck/information

It doubles as a placemat and really cuts down the dusting that needs to be done But be prepared to take a lot of shit when you ask for a new seat to ladder while the class works >=)

i still say icemats r better



Heheh, I love all kinds of mousepads. I've used Icemats, 3 different Razers, Qck and other steelseries, thundermats and a few others. I don't know why I use the Qck+ with SC so much. I used to use the "control" side of the x-act mat, but when I loaned it to my friend for a LAN I got used to the Qck+ and just haven't bothered to change.

I go through phases where I become obsessed about things... knives (still comes now and again), bushcraft, computer peripherals, hell, even boondoggling ^_^
seriously next disrespectful comment in this blog is ip ban. Be happy or get the hell out. // SC2 is like playing with neutral-colored Play-Doh while BW is like colorful Legos.

I recently bought a new mouse and went back to wired and found myself rigging up a mouse bungee as well. I used an empty CD spindle, a binder clip and a rubber band. Just for good measure, I threw a bunch of pennies on it for added weight.

My first time on teamliquid.net so what's up guys.
Mouse Bungee's are getting more popular these days, but reading from all the comments from Amazon, there's a lot of compatibility and weight issues with the commercial mouse Bungees out right now. So I thought I share what I'm using right now, just made it on a whim. If anyone got any ideas for the "tip" of the bungee for which I can attach and make it more flexible please share.

Hope the image links work. =D

This is mine. In case you can't tell from the incredibly informative picture, the mouse's wire goes under the desk and is taped to the back "plate" of the desk, with some loose, but not so much that it weighs on the mouse and pulls away from me, yet not so little that I can't pull the mouse toward myself. There's no resistance either way, it never tangles in anything, and it was free because I stole the duct tape from some construction guys. Perfect.
