Non spamming player with control rated at 120 APM > a spamming player who even only seldom loses control at an APM of 240+ (mainly due to apm spamming)

my APM is about 160 midgame with only random spamming early game up until theres actually something to do.
Video games > sex (Proven fact)

Spamming the right-click to move my guys around when I know that 1/100th of the clicks is required.
MBC/Liquid/TSM always.

I spam my hatch, scout OL and drones at the start of the game occasionally. I find it does help me keep focused a bit. After about 20 supply or so I stop "padding" my apm altogether.

Do 6e6e6e6e6e6e6e6e and make tiny boxes around each probe or multiple probes
We were all raised on televion that made us believe we'd all be Millionairs, Movie gods, and Rockstars..... But we won't.... We are slowly learning that fact. And we are very, very pissed off.

Try moving the mouse cursor around and selecting minerals and workers individually. This should help increase mouse accuracy.

I don`t really do this, I might get my scv to do donuts while i am waiting for 20 minerals to build something i suppose.

Oh! I play bejeweled blitz on Facebook i suppose i could call that mouse accuracy and apm =/

I'm going to sound lazy but I don't do it. I find that if I try and keep my APM up I'll exhaust myself, and not be able to throw down chain games.

I don't know why but SC2 is just exhausting when I play it... it feels like I'm going to have a heart attack sometimes from the pressure (no I'm not fat or in danger of dying)

To warm up my keyboard hand I hotkey each worker early on (while trying to double up on close mineral patches) and I try to hit above 1200 apm with spamming 1-6 as fast as I can, I only do it for the first 10-15 seconds to get my hand warmed up.

Besides worker boxing early game, I have a habit of going through sets of actions twice (like 1a2a3a1a2a3a). BW used to be not as responsive :/
