I always get confused when people talk about Carleton college. I get confused because I go to Carleton U in Canada.

Space was the most amazing UD player, it's too bad i think his illness as progressed to the point where he can't compete as progamer anymore.

Well, I've served in army, and some of my friends came back crippled from Afganistan. And we used to play together games like Broodwar, and such. But at the moment, all they do is sit in wheelchairs and do nothing. Being disabled pretty much destroys the person. Glad to see that there are people keeping it up and not losing it.

Thumbs up man. Best of luck too.

First off, you have a fantastic username. Just unbeatable.

Second, as soon as I read your post, I thought of a co-worker of mine who lost his right hand in a lumbermill way back in the day, but he now works in an office as an accountant. Recently, he bought this thing called the Footmouse and he loves it. It is pretty pricey $350 I believe, but it helps him out a lot, and it is just as precise as a regular mouse.

However, I watched the video of you playing, and your mouse hand is pretty solid already, so I don't know if this would be any help (also don't know what kind of control you have with your legs), but I figured I'd let you know on the off chance it would be beneficial. At the very list it would make it easier to hotkey buildings and such.

Good luck and Game on.

This thread made my day. I can't think of anything I'd like to see more than a Looknohands pop up on a GSL bracket.

That's... wow.

Slightly off-topic: I remember there was a show match between Boxer and some blind dude. They had Boxer wear a blindfold for a few minutes and of course he was getting rocked, but once the blindfold was off it was game over..

And dang, you're inspiring. No matter what tech you take you're still going to be at a disadvantage.

I wish you the best of luck and hope I can keep up with what you're doing.

Honestly the most amazing post I have ever seen. Sad that so many people just give up once something like this happens. You however are truly an inspiration.
Good luck reaching your dreams. Never know you may become like a news sensation making SC2 E-sports huge globally.

Why dont u use a graphic tablet to play? I think that would allow you to move more and get more sensitivity.

Friend of mine told me he had some good times playing with the trackpad of his laptop, wich allowed him to play faster sometimes. I think you could use a graphic tablet as a giant trackpad, I was considering the idea for myself but didnt want to spend the money to afford it

.

Let me know what you think about this!

There was also a disabled polish guy, who won a Tekken III tournement. He only has two fingers on his right hand, and none on his left.
