I was just handling lots of icons in my desktop today and I found my self Ctrl+Clicking while trying to select all similar icons at the same time... like if that would work... hahaha I was then thinking, how has starcraft hotkeying affected your daily life, from typing faster to making silly mistakes like mine.  | ||

I also spam Ctrl+Tab/Ctrl+PageUp/Ctrl+PageDown/Alt+Tab to cycle tabbed windows and windows quickly so that I can detect a drop on any of my applications and transfer SCVs. I also idly 1a2a3a4a5a. I'm a programmer so my typing was already fast, but precision is better (particularly around the b, v, and p keys). This thread sucks and is embarassing. :p | ||

then I think BW really helped bridge the gap, through playing online, even though I was super noob at the time, playing money maps, having to type all the time.. "help" "go counter" "he coming me" "i tech" "lets go red" "u D up, i'll finish zerg" etc.. so ya, now I can type no problem, but im sure thats like the 1st thing everyone picks up, from comps alone.. I can still type pretty rediculously fast though, a lot faster than other normal ppl I know.. they take so long.. like they're trying to spell the word in their head.. and typing 1 letter at a time.. I could prolly keep up w/ someone talking liek a stynographer (ppl that type spoken dialogue in courtrooms), but its harder when u have to have correct grammar and punctuation. I suppose BW might has affected my multitasking ability in an overall sense.. I'm constantly thinking what needs to be done, next-step wise, and try to do something that will accomodate the completion of that task while still performing the original.. hand-speed etc, concentration maybe.. that sorta thing.. Other than that.. it's just a game :O very.... complicated... game.. | ||

I often watch a movie and chat with friends | ||
