Depends on the people playing stimey..they can be action packed, but usually not. I don't think I had to multi task that much, and it was a really short game.. like 11 minutes, so that played a role in it as well

(compared to the example games provided in the last page)

gessfk 200apm 3v3 terran bgh no hotkeys
81 select per minute <-- twice as much as boxer and nada
56 move per minute <-- slightly more than boxer and nada
18 train per minute <-- more than nada and twice boxer's
18 rally per minute <-- less than half nada's, but more than boxer's
13 attack move per minute <-- less than nada, more than double boxer's
6 shift select per minute <-- 1 more than nada and boxer

of course only you really know the usefulness of what you're doing, but it looks like you're a living boxer clone, maybe twice as fast! imagine if you used hotkeys too!

You can still waste clicks, but it'll still show speed in a general sense. I mean you can't seriously say a 100 APM person is faster than a 300 APM person, but when it only differs by like 40-50, it's not saying much as it could mean a lot of different things.

"are hotkeys really that great?"

No, they suck. Close topic.

People who spam click sometimes do it just to keep their hands moving and get prepared for actual usage of what would be idle hands. At the start of a game there is very little to do and its not spam if you're switching between doing useful things even if you've already done them and just switching between tasks and coordinating. Eventually you won't have time to spam click if you're playing your best game because it'll only work against you. Seen ogogo's left hand? Thats mostly spam until its being used in a battle when his hand goes EVEN faster and more insane. Hotkeys are godlike.
