The OP asked if anyone knew of any Disabled ProGamers. Unfortunately, I don't know of any personally, but I do know of one quadriplegic who plays a hunter in Wow - Quadilious. He's quite an inspirational player too! He damaged his spine when diving into a pool and some limited arm movement, but no hand control. He has his own website http://quadilious.webs.com/ which explains his set up and has a couple of videos up on youtube Good luck. | ||

Makes it hard to anyone to complain about "imba" when they've got all theirs limbs so I'd like to say for most of the people on TL, keep playing and don't let anything get in the way of your dreams! | ||

quick question: have you experimented with different kinds of mice? I'm sure some could work better than others depending on size, I remember there was a girl who I went to school with who had no hands and used a special kind of mouse which she could use very well. Im not sure what it was called tho :/ | ||

My recommendation would maybe be to switch to Protoss, less micro intensive (even this in SC2 is not so much true as in SC1). Anyways this is breathtaking, keep up the good work. | ||

I'm amazed of how well you can control the mouse.. I swear if i tried doing that, the mouse would be flying off the table - no kidding  .And love your nick! Good to see you being open about who you are - many disabled I know turns very passive and feels embarrassed to talk about them being disabled. Keep on having fun, and enjoying life! | ||

Regarding possible tips on improving your input interface with the game.. I have no experience in this regard, but I have thought about a couple of possibilities.. don't know if they are feasible or not but could be.. 1) Mouth Joystick, something like this: http://www.broadenedhorizons.com/mouthjoystick.htm , which lists these features: The Sip & Puff Mouth Joystick has one mouthpiece, which operates as a joystick. It has 3 holes for "sip & puff" (6 switches) and 4 lip buttons. You have access to all 12 buttons on the Playstation® 2 controller. Start and Select is done using a sip & puff switch mounted on the side of the mouthpiece. The mouthpiece comes with a stand to allow you to mount it to a table or lapboard. 2) Speech recognition: there are many software which do this.. and they've become incredibly more accurate than those of the past. They could be configured to bind certain words to "hotkeys". Unfortunately this options may not be used to its full potential together with the 1) option, and probably isn't working in a real tournament with all the noise around. EDIT: there is also this other one which should work more like a mouse rather than a PS2 Pad: http://www.broadenedhorizons.com/headcontrol.htm | ||
