I'm learning it as a separate style in an effort to boost speed/stamina. My left hand seems to handle the things I'm worse at (runningmen/rolls/trills, etc.) better than my right does (with the exception of jacks). So yeah, I'm working on it.
It's funny to play one handed without arrow keys - my setup forces me to use a key that is disproportionately larger than the other three, which leads to a ton of boos.
mashing is for noobs, are you a noob? Smashing the keys in random order repeatedly shows 0 (or negative) skill in a game such as this.
I said this harshly as an emphasis to discourage mashing (which is definitely something we shouldn't be encouraging by saying we all have mashed scores...). Same concept as saying smoking kills you. If you know that smoking can kill you, you won't smoke. If you think mashing makes you a noob, you won't mash. Simple concept, and it usually works.
If you want to take it as trolling and not constructive criticism, using a method slightly more frank than you're used to, that's good for you, but the fact of the matter is, you don't get better at this game by mashing, soooo... shouldn't that be discouraged with regards to someone who is trying to get better?
@Halogen: It's been stated many times in this thread, everyone has every right to post in this thread, but if you're going to post scores, make sure they follow the rules stated in the OP. So you don't really have any room to say:

Rushy - sorry, I wasn't ragging on anyone in particular.
You of all people should know that I'm not targeting anyone directly, especially considering that you're one of the people who gives a ton of encouragement in here. It's just not fair to chastise someone for posting an "accomplishment".
Yes, it's frowned upon to mash, but you also have to figure that people are going way out of the comfort zone that they're used to. What kind of scores do you think you're going to see from someone who normally plays 6s/7s in their style when they play 11s/12s? It's not like it's going to be a seamless transition and they won't hit boos. They just wanted to get a full combo, lol.
Also, you can't say what I said was out of line because I'm actually posting scores in an effort to learn a new style. At least I'm contributing (unlike a few other posters in here).
Picked up a ton of boos at the end because of all the jumps, but I nailed a good majority of the 16ths, so at least I have some speed intact when down to one hand.
phew, think you raised it a little too high a little too fast. 1.85 to 2.15 is a mad big jump. Work it up by like .05 or .1 at a time. That PA came out lol being that clean of a FC.
