lol, this poll is lacking so much. I used to play 2-hands 4-fingers with the arrow keys, but now I play spread = zx./

If you wanna be good, play them all!

I play left middle on left, left index on down, right index on number pad 8, right middle on number pad 6, so I think that poll is definitly lacking a lot...

I play index and can SDG songs like {Rose}, but I'm slowly converting over to spread because there's a limit to how good you can be index =/

Noo. There is no limit, there is only mental blocks.

Anobody > most spread players.

I'm trying to get good at spread, but definitely keeping index my main style. THE WORLD NEEDS MORE INDEXERS.

3-fingered playing. I tried to play spread and didn't do well at all.

Yes, we are far behind as far as FC's and AAA's go, but that's not really what I'm looking for. Sure, it's a bit of a side-challenge, but I just want to be a decent player, one hand or not.

3 fingers, two hands, all on the stupid, tiny keypad.
Middle finger left hand, index and middle on right hand.

Should maybe get more options for the vote?

That comment really meant nothing about index, but FFR in general.
More like, have fun trying to FC Strangeprogram or Pants index.
Eww
I'm actually trying to switch to spread but keep all of my index skill.
I can just about FC {Rose} spread, but with absolutely TERRIBLE PA.

Any tips on PAing streams spread?

I'm not such a great spread player, but I've found that if you lift your hands up off the keyboard instead of resting you palms on it, and tapping a little bit harder, you can hear your taps a lot better and sync them with the song.

I actually did generally well for a one-handed player on Crowdpleaser. It shouldn't be much of an obstacle for spread players.

You guys use some weird spread keys lol. Whenever i try spread, i use Q W [ ]. The good thing about those keys is that on any keyboard, with those keys, you can hit all four arrows without the keystrokes canceling each other out.
But I don't play one handed 3-finger
Left hand index finger uses arrow keys, right hand index and middle uses numpad.

One handed, three fingered. Never cared to convert to anything else. Just takes too much getting used to.

Oooh. Sorry. That's a pretty weird style xD. Not saying that there's anything wrong about it though. Well I guess I could've had more specific choices, but considering the options I'd say that falls under spread.

I'm one hand, three-fingered.
Decent at it, I play SM more often than FFR though. >.>
I've recently been trying spread and index (mostly spread) and I think that I'm really uncoordinated with two hands. =(
