Playin' with style

What's your style?
Mine is looking at the screen sidways with my left arm holding my head up, and the keyboard like 20 meters in front of me, no ffr fullscreen, and the one handed 3 finger style. That's the possition I play on. What everybody elses'? (and don't say crap like doggy style)

uhm... staring at the screen from about 2 - 2.5 feet away, playing on the arrows of my contoured keyboard (which has a weird arrow set-up) with four fingers... And I recently noticed that I tend to tilt my head slightly to the right while playing... oddly, I mess up more if I force msyelf to keep my head straight...

ImEric12 · 06-8-2004, 11:15 AM

How exactly do you reach the keyboard if it's 20 meters in front of you?

Anyway, I vary positions. Depends on how I'm feeling at the moment.

slowtch down in my chair with my fingers on the arrow keys....put my feet on the subwoofer below....rest my head on the back of the chair....and look at the screen from about....2.5-3 feets away...its comfortable

I sit straight up, sometimes i sit on my leg...and hold my arms straight out infront me me. My arms are pretty much straight cause I sit far away from the monitor. And I usually look somewhere around the middle of the screen while playing.

If im really really lazy and not trying I usually sit closer and not as straight.

I sit in a comfy computer chair with my legs up on another chair. I have the keyboard in my lap, cradled in my left arm. I don't really know where I look when I play - I start to screw up when I being thinking about things like that.

Zeryo · 06-8-2004, 04:42 PM

im a very odd felow, i turn my chair to the right, move my keyboard and sit semi-sideways. I play one handed and left at that. I sit about 1.5 feet away from my screen and raise my chair up so my arm rest is even with the table. Comforts the only way to go man.

I use an end table as a desk, and one of those cloth chairs you see soccer moms with as a computer chair. I have the end table turned sideways, so the leg is under my foot.

Normally I play with my elbows on my knees, my feet on the leg of the end table, and sitting about a foot and a half in front of my monitor. Occasionally I put the keyboard on my knees.

that'd be it.

For FFR, I have the keyboard about two inches in front of my gel armrest, and I sit in the front of my seat with my face about a foot away from the screen and I'm very tense.

For SM, I'm a lot different. I turn my swivel chair sideways and put my feet in another chair and lean back. I turn my keyboard about 45 degrees facing me and play that way. Wierd.

Privateer · 06-8-2004, 05:43 PM

I lean back and put my feet on a footrest under my desk. The surface my keyboard lays on is very close to me, and the screen is pulled very close, though it is pretty high. I stare at the timing window for SM.

Patricoo · 06-8-2004, 06:09 PM

Leaning back, keyboard close, elbow on rest but wrist in air.

Sometimes I'll play with my toes, but I can't do better then a 300 some combo on Uber rave that way...

evilbutterfly · 06-9-2004, 10:22 AM

i sit in a chair and hit the keys...i dont do anything cool to play, except sometimes i act like i'm some crazy piano player and go nuts on the keyboard. but i dont wanna break it, so i rarely do that

bboylobo · 06-9-2004, 10:45 AM

two hands one finger from my left and three from my right sitting and having my arms resting on sumthing like a table

netty400 · 06-9-2004, 10:51 AM

I play with mittins

sugarman · 06-9-2004, 05:49 PM

I've just noticed that my chair tends to be turned 45 degrees to the right, and I hadn't noticed that I can't play unless my left leg is under my right leg on top of my spinny chair hehe.

Oh, and ImEric12, It's called exageration.
