EPThowever, the amazing work of jca kinda remembered me off all the other amazing stuff that TL members contributed like chaoslauncher (Masterofchaos, you are awesome!) and so on.
Just an awesome, creative and influential community. Go TL!

Btw I like APM technology headsets. I wouldn't buy one but I like them because when the camera switches to the player I can tell "oh he's doing this", or "oh that thing is happening". All in all the mouse and headset are mostly fashion items in my opinion. edit: and yeah that thread about APM invention was really nice and informative. I always thought that APM was a basic and generic game-related term. | ||

But that's cool to know thanks OP, however I am not sure what TL invented? was it the acronym APM to stand for actions per minute, or did they discover the technology to record the APM in a game? | ||

The products are a waste of money and the technology is of very little use and practicality. Want to warn me for that too? Edit: Does it matter who invented it? The thread is eventually going to just continue on about what APM is being adapted to and how the economic opportunities are being taken advantage of this useless addition of APM.

Read the second part. The part about who invented "APM" on TL. That's the more critical part of this thread. | ||

Well I can't seem to find anything on who invented APM and I'm sure it was a culmination of people who projected it as a way to measure skill.... however wrong and misguided they may have been in doing so. | ||

Don't be such a downer; this thread is about the awesomeness of TL, APM, JCA, and beer. We can talk about razer producs, marketing strategies, the global economy, and the discussion of APM vs skill later. + Show Spoiler + actually I think we've already had that last one a couple times. | ||

It's a fairly common term, like words per minute or beats per minute. It's just a form of measurement. And don't forget sc2 apm is actually misleading due to the speed settings, if i recall sc2 apm is 40% faster than the actually physical time of minute. Ex: 100 sc2 "apm" is really 140 actions per minute. He asked absolutely nothing. | ||
