    /thread. Dev pretty much explained it the best

    1, v, p, numpad6 spread or something.
    rofl I might try that later.

    But I rather see someone pass a tricky song with their teeth

          Why would you put that in your signature? You've lost your signature rights for a month. (You'll get them back on March 10th, 2012.)

              Jokes aside, the reason double-setup is typically not allowed is because one can hit one key with two fingers. Personally, I've never truly seen the logic behind banning it, especially in FFR where by default there are 8 keys you can use, but that's the rule, so yeah.
              I didn't state that spread was cheating, I asked why it wasn't. Specifically, I asked why the line between cheating and not was drawn where it is. An acceptable answer to this was given before you posted, so technically this thread is done with.

              Dog ≠ Cat
              Therefore Dog ≠ Animal

              Yay for bad logic.
              Thread is already solved, by the way. -.-;

              It might've if the competition was still competing. Beating a dead horse -.-

              I wasn't looking for pity, I wasn't trying to show off, I stated how spread has an advantage over index to display parallelism to how double-setup has an advantage over spread, making it a similar scenario, then asking why we chose one advantage to be cheating, and one not.

              This will definetly hurt you seeing you got all of them good scores.
              I also made it clear that despite using 8 possible keys, I'm actually at more of a disadvantage than a spread player. I don't see anyone in their right minds finding an issue with that, besides maybe jealousy (However anyone who can do anything about it is already better than me anyway, so...)

              Agreed. This thread was solved on Page 1, by Fant. Lock before more people get defendant of their playstyles -.-

                Next time please use your head when making facts:
                Rubix used double setup as an exception to the rule, seeing as vrofl was unpassable without such measures. Double setup isn't allowed, Rubix is an exception to many things, don't involve him in this.
