I actually want EAPM to be displayed in ShieldBattery rather than APM (or have the option to switch between the two). EAPM maps more closely to how much I'm multitasking compared to APM which differs wildly from game to game.

Hiya, I got signed up for the beta a while back, but I seem to have forgotten my ID or PW... can I have any help resetting or recovering either? Thanks so much!

EDIT: Nevermind! I found out both!

EAPM is mouse spam, APM is keyboard spam.. both are spam.

EAPM should be renamed to MAPM and APM should be renamed to KAPM, that'd be more accurate. EAPM isnt necessarily more efficient "apm", people just assume it is because of the name.

That's why zerg players usually have more EAPM than other races, they move their units around the map the most (ling groups, muta group etc.). If you don't believe me just start a game and move spam ur workers around then leave the game, you'll have 500 eapm!

If you click in the same place your EAPM doesn't increase because your command was "too similar" to a previous one.

Try this: spam select minerals on the map with your mouse. Your APM can be as high as 200 or 300, depending on how fast you click with your mouse. Your EAPM will be zero because you didn't make any ORDERS TO UNITS.

My EAPM is between 90 and 110, while my APM is between 130 and 200. There's a bigger spread for APM than EAPM because of spam.

Yes but you can spam your EAPM up by just move commanding units left and right. Or say someone doesnt use f keys or hotkey buildings, he's gonna gain EAPM by macro'ing incorrectly and inefficiently, that doesn't mean he's playing the right way.

And like i mentioned certain races will have more EAPM by default, like zerg. Just building mutas and microing them raises your EAPM a shitton (because you'll be moving them back and forth), that doesn't necessarily mean you're doing anything taxing. All you're doing during all that is macro'ing off of 2 hatches with low drones, so there's no intense macro behind it.

EAPM is a measure for yourself, not to compare to other players. It's also match-up and strategy specific, like you said. Mutas raise it a lot.

But since I just want EAPM on the screen, it would be just a measure for myself. It's to check if I'm getting tired, because that's when my EAPM starts to drop. My fingers literally stop moving as fast.

I got my invite when my post count was below 50. It's tiny even now. And I did nothing for the community too. There is no bias in invite distribution.
