imo there is nothing wrong about this or bannable ¬_¬ its not like a 3rd party software because its just a binding its not like it can be patched either so itll probably stay but there will only be a small number of players who will actually use it

I'm almost positive it is depending on your mouse. For example I use a logitech g9 and I can program different "profiles" each with its own DPI and button settings (including remapping) and it's saved right onto the g9's on board memory.

Oh yeah so clever to say that there isn't anything against it in the rules at the moment.That's the nature of a new exploit - no one knew of it before...
Why don't you send an email to blizz support to clarify if it's allowed? They'll send you a clear no, because they don't really care and disallow anything potential abusable. And you won't get a statement out of em either if they ban for it.

I am 100% sure however that Blizzard put something in the Terms of Use or wherever that allows them to ban you for basically no reason at all if they'd like to. And surely there is a passage about common sense too, maybe even related to the abuse of game mechanics etc.
Sure go ahead and keep cheating. If enough people do it they might not even ban you but instead fix it (which would be way better as many people would still take the risk of getting banned even if they know bans were given out for this).

You need a program to do that. Check the OP post.

You can still throw 30 infested terrans simultaneously by waypointing a move command before shift-clicking the infested terrans. so he could be doing that, or the scroll wheel.

It's really funny that people are getting upset and saying it's cheating. First of all- its not. It's just rebinding controls. Second, it's not even significant considering the ghost nerf.

Get your facts right ... IT IS A MAKRO. Your mouse-software records a macro for you "mouse down; delay 0.00xxxx seconds, mouse up" so STOP saying its a mere rebind.

It worked fine on my Deathadder. Make sure you are changing the scrolling up and down and not just pressing the scroll wheel down - that threw me at first.

Heh, maybe it is you instead who should get your facts straight... it's a 1-to-1 binding and NOT a macro. The mouse-software registers each scroll of the mousewheel as a left-click. Since you are able to scroll faster than you can left-click, the rebinding of the key allows very fast clicks.

Interesting that despite all the evidence (Morrow posting about it, Artosis mentioning it on the GSL stream) you continue to insist that this is cheating?

The only thing you have right in your post is that the ToS is worded in such a way that they can ban you for almost anything. But that's beside the point - as long as big tournaments allow this, how can you say it's cheating?

I think I saw someone who sent an email to Blizzard and asked about it in this thread, or somewhere else on liquid, and they basically got "yes, np, go ahead, use it, it's fine." from Blizzard.
It's just binding keys & changing some keyboard settings, no different from changin mouse DPI.

in beta infested terrans used to come out two at a time but cost 50 energy. I find the consequence of having to do so many actions takes away from everything else you have to do. If I can expend all my infestor energy and then begin to baneling drop it would make bane rain considerably more effective then it is now. I've always contemplated doing this but wasn't entirely sure what kind of driver support or legal issues would come up in tournaments.

I changed the setting on my DeathAdder driver then tried it in the Unit Tester and my computer literally crashed... I got a blue screen and my computer restarted on it's own. That's nice.

It doesn't look like my Razer Copperhead driver software offers scroll up/down functionality. Of course, wouldn't you know it, I can program every OTHER button, but not scroll up/down.

If you have a programmable keyboard, or even just with the use of a script, you can do the same thing with your keyboard instead, with even faster results.

Is there a difference between the bumped/stepped scroll wheels and the smooth ones?
I wouldn't have thought that the bumped/stepped wheels would respond much faster than just regular clicking.
Personally I'm using [image loading]
(which had great potential for a mouse concept but overall is rather disappointing)
Using the software it's only possible to rebind the "joysticks", so I set it so that when the left joystick is pressed forward, perform a click (it results in repeating if held down — kinda dicey-ish maybe).
