Default Re: FFR's Next Polymath

Quote:
Please design your own keyboard, and include a small paint-drawn picture of it. In 200 words, explain to me:

1. Its specifications
2. Why is it special
3. How is this specialized keyboard better than the one you have now
i gave you exactly what you asked for... and it's specific purpose. why would i design a completely new keyboard? that's silly... i can either use a qwerty because i already know it, or i could learn the dvorak keyboard, since it's more efficient. any other keyboard layout doesn't make much sense... unless you mean to take a current qwerty keyboard and then add your own hotkeys on the sides and top of it. or something like that.

otherwise, i really like mine as a secondary keyboard. USB plug-in, so you can use it with a desktop... but primary function is for a laptop, which has issues registering 3 or 4 keypresses at once, plus usually has smaller keys. this will give laptop users the full FFR/SM experience. you can't possibly tell me you wouldn't want one for your laptop use. you could play on airplanes, in the car, etc etc. it'd be bangin'.



edit: seriously dude. if you're running a "mental" aspect of a tournament, expect people to think outside of the box in regards to the question you ask. why on earth would i give you a cookie cutter response to a mental question. that's bull****. my answers will always be original and creative, because THAT is what should lead to higher points out of the 500. the cookie-cutter answers should be giving 100 or 200, if that. like the hot pink arrow. stupid. we already have a pink arrow. i'm getting seriously pissed off at how you look at mental responses. typical is bad... unique is good. the fact that you didn't like my mouse essay was abominable. That essay is priceless. Unique, funny, takes a question you asked and answers it a completely different way from what you expected, etc. I'd bitch more about it, but you gave me full points for it, as you should. don't forget that i've gone through multiple creative writing and essay writing classes in college... as well as way more response questions/essays in other college classes. professors get bored of reading the same responses 40 times... you stand out from the crowd when you give them something new and different.


edit2: permanent keyboard and not detachable? that isn't even possible on a desktop! all desktop keyboards are plug-ins.
