Not that you care, because I don't. Despite doing other things like working on an album, making money elsewhere, taking care of my kid.. I still ain't giving up (so it was a joke about throwing in the towel...). So at least you can look forward to VcentG and I.. releasing our game. It's all good though. I hope the guys who gave up, eventually get whatever it is they attempted... done. Well, that is all.. get your bars up. Peace. =)
Good to hear that you're just joking. I've been put off schedule too, in my case by getting a new job, one which has caused my carpal tunnel problems to return. To help alleviate the problem in the long term I've switched to the Dvorak keyboard layout. I'm doing well for about four days experience, but I've gone from around 70wpm to 16, and that is severely cutting into my output :/

Dang dude. Sorry to hear about that. I like to take breaks so I don't get messed up hands typing. Then again... I'm mostly clicking since I create pixel art. One night I had pain in my knuckles, but it was from over doing it.. so I took a day off from doing anything and it helped. To go from 70wpm down to 17wpm... tat has to suck majorly. =/
wacom tablet ftw.

Fail. Nah, I could imagine it's a bit better do do work that way. I have an old one... but it's windows 95 old.

It wasn't the typing that did it - I bought a used cello not to long ago, and spent hours each day playing before the muscles in my hands were strong enough. That being said, yeah, it sucks.
the cello sounds like a pretty manly instrument
I don't see how people get carpal tunnel. I've been typing for hours daily since I was like 10 and have been typing even more lately to create my latest game. I've had some discomfort, but nothing that ever made me go down to 17wpm.
He went down to 17wpm because he switched to the dvorak layout - it'd be like learning to type all over again, 'cept harder.
