Was a mistake of me playing that day, should have known better than to play with a bad ear after a party the day before.

I'm curious... How does having a "bad ear" affect on your fingers pressing buttons on your keyboard?

Wtf, blood.. you got entering messages on? KEK

How does the ear regulate balance?

Entirely separate from the hearing organs (the eardrum and the cochlea), two sensory organs in the inner ear detect orientation and movement. The brain uses information relating to orientation and movement to control balance.

And when you wait on incoming shots from radar, you don't know which angle they come from, so hearing the shots is almost as important as seeing them.

Anything else?

EDIT: And yes, it affects how you react to movements on a screen too.

Well of course a bad ear provides another distraction, too.

But it's just an excuse for doing bad.

PS: I play better sounds off.

Biggest nonesense I've seen in a long time. Deaf ear has nothing to do with how you react. I agree with Phrenitis, I can play just as good without the damn sound

[Sufficient]

Both Ratty and QS choked. Simple as that.

[Blood]

yo i havent had subspace sounds on for about 6 years.

There's a reason why you're benching for heavy in dds and lds?

And I doubt you would be any better with sound, keep it off.

That's still not as bad as blaming the deaf ear for 0-5 (lol)

You attacked Ward, obviously the easier target, even though he only agreed with me.

[Dabram]

oh my, i play with sounds off aswell for over 6 years now, could rattydotdotdot be wrong, once again?

[Elbryan]

I don't have a soundcard. O.o ...haven't had in 2 years...

I guess it's about what you've used to. If you've used to hearing when someone shoots, it might be a bit harder to follow the happenings without sounds. If you're used to playing without sounds, it might be distracting to hear someone shoot.

Anyways, I'm not commenting on the trash on this thread. =) Just wanted to point out. :P

[Reaver]

then again, people who have done bad in twl generally havent been running their mouths for so long like our good friend Ratty...

lol

[Deverse]

lol ratty... sound or no sound has basically no effect(maybe some...?); stop making excuses. You choked, not a big deal.
