Default Re: Weird Habits While Playing FFR

A couple of weird habits I have is that I tend to blink a lot (much more than a normal person does) and I have to find a right place in the song to force my eyelids shut and blink as hard as I can to try to get the itchy feeling to go away but it never really works. It tends to mess me up a lot. And also I tend to get my pinkies involved (I use ASKL as my hotkeys) and I push Caps Lock by accident.

A Guitar hero stimulus, when I'm playing a real fast song, I tend to strum furiously even after the notes have passed. Which of course means that I am totally out of rhythm on the next string of notes.

as far as FFR is concerned:

I usually get a boo at the bottom of a staircase.

I seem to bob my leg a lot during long streams. It always seems to be during the 8th note of a 16th stream. I guess I'm subconscienciously using it to keep my self on beat. I also whistle (I know, really weird) during said streams. Not for any particular reason, I just like to see if I can whistle along with that part of the song. One that sticks out in my mind is {Blaze}. It sounds really cool when done properly, along with the keytaps.

When i'm doing some hardcore streemz, my left hand pinky tends to tense up into a little ball.

When I get to that gay left hand section in BB Revenge I make a face.

If I try to crack my knuckles or pop my double-jointed thumb ONCE before a song, I do it for like the next 357289357 songs and during breaks in songs. It really gets annoying.

My pinky fingers curl up as well. I also tend to bite my lip.

I only use one hand when I play FFR. Usually when there are those quick 16ths or more I usually switch from my right hand to my left hand.

I tend to stop breath when I combo a hard song or AAA an easy one. >_>
And when I realize this, I breathe through my nose.
Also, I stop playing if I was just about to accomplish something but fail.
Because it annoys the hell out of me afterwards.
Oh, I stop blinking too. xD

I play spread askl. On my right hand, my thumb tends to want to stay on the laptop. My left hand I kind of hover like normal. I notice when playing this way my PA is somewhat better. It is odd though, as soon as I think about my thumb being down I try to move it and insta-miss.

As many others here have stated, I also tend to not breathe or blink when I'm doing a fairly hard song. In fact, when I blink I almost always get an insta-miss.

I slap my self across the face when i miss >_>. Then I smash waterbottles when I get what I want.
This also leads to another habit I forgot to add;
I always drink water before I want to get a good score/PA on something O_o so you will find 832108973 bottles lying around in my room, occasionally, my mom comes in my room and smack me in the head with one for staying up late.

ohhh yeah I run out of breath as well >_> when I'm almost reaching some goal or w/e

I tend to:

- Click the Flash three times when the song starts (to make sure it's active otherwise the arrows won't count)

- Hide the distracting cursor on the top-right part of the screen when the song starts

- My eyes and sometimes my face gets itchy and I temporarily play one-handed to scratch them (not good when you're trying FC a song or something)

- When I am about to FC a hard song or about to AAA a song (I SUCK at AAA'ing ) my heart starts to race and I try too hard on concentrating

- Adjust the position of my chair during play
