but in all honesty I'd rather have the one that speaks, because it's not as satisfying just seeing "GG" pop up on your screen. Maybe if it did both I would get it. | ||

Wired is comparably easy, I would need to probably look up what it would take to get a keyboard driver set up in a device that small, but at least i could take apart an existing keyboard to look... Not sure that's the easiest though, as it requires me getting the resistance right across certain parts to fake the analog motion of the keyboard. I think that it might be easier to drop a microcontroller in, although i'm not convinced that one is easily going to fit, and I'm really not that interested in printing my own board.... =_= I guess that the cool thing would be that if I used a microcontroller i could start to use the computer as a head unit to control other stuff. hrm. | ||

Whenever you get cheesed and have to gg out, you punch it and it does something like punch you back in the face or whatever, so that way you stop raging after you lose. I think it would be funnier if it was an "Idra" button where it picks a random Idra rage quote each time you press it, types it and leaves the game without a "GG". Of course it would have to constantly be updated with new ones and royalties could be given to further support Idra. :D | ||

And using a extra keyboard isn't frowned upon aslong as it doesn't give any unfair advantages and a external keyboard with one button isn't a advantage. as for leaving the game you would just need to press it 3 times. macros are allowed in WoW anyways, they even built in a macro system to the game. However you can't use external software or keyboards to run the macro's in tournament settings.... you aren't even allowed to use addons, you can only use what you can setup with the stock game. SC2 doesn't allow fore macros that perform multiple actions with one press, WoW actually is the same.... the in game macro system makes you press the key for every action you want to do exluding chat macros... chat macro's probably are fine, they can't tell if its a macro anyways and they won't ban you for it.... but any other macro's can get you banned. | ||

TBH I don't really see the point off saying GG after every game. In tournaments, sure but every ladder game? I really don't see the point. What really gets me is when people GG only to follow it up with "you cheesy faggot" or something which is basically saying "you played good" followed by "you played awful" | ||

Bluetooth or some other wireless technique would definitely mean the most awesomness, but it would up the price too much so I think USB would be the overall best choice. Perhaps a BT version for those who already have a BT receiver. I have no clue really but it seems from an earlier comment you're the one who made the "original" button? If so and you have the means to make this happen I would totally like to work with you on it  Also for those who suggest different uses for it like rage and stuff; it would hopefully come with some customization software with perhaps presets and the option for the user to program it however s/he wishes | ||

Zerg just got a whole lot less frustrating! I would buy one of these if they sold it near me, but since this is such a niche product, that seems to be out of my reach. Make one for L2P and "sigh....*insert race here*" too! | ||

typing gg requires 4 keystrokes. If I lose I power off and that only requires pulling the plug. So 4. You fail. ;-D | ||
