I can only speak for myself, but apart from that one time I used macros to turn fastly in CTF I have always single binded, without exception. So, if it is the case that somebody partly double binds and partly single binds I'd say that you can't fully call him a single binder.

I assume, although he has never posted here, that Lackadaisical is also a single binder.

Lacka is a single binder, but I think he may have double binds for those times he's in tunnels and needs to turn around quickly, could be wrong though.

And I know some players (like titan) have their left turn keys for their left hand and right turn keys on their right (asd left and kl; right i believe). Interesting that there don't seem to be any single binders with a similar setup.

If you count using left hand for turning left and right and right hand for braking as playing with two hands then I do the same.

SingleBinder: A person who has only 2 Binds set. 1 for turning Left , 1 for turning Right. You can either use 1 hand or 2 hands.

I don't think it matters how many hands you use, as long its only using 1 key to turn left and 1 other key to turn right.

Yea people who single bind & doublebind shouldn't really be counted as a sole single binder :s

Yeah it's pretty strange to see that like all singlebinders do directions with one hand and glance with the other. Isn't it easier to have your left hand for left and your right hand for right? Seems more 'natural' to me.

Hehe yes, I always have to perform contortions while playing, however I can not imagine to play in another way.

Isn't that how most people play? I single bind probably 90% of the time, but when it gets tight I can't physically single bind fast enough, but I wouldn't call it single binding :P

(d)fgb left and mkl(;) right, (glances). h and j are back glance buttons (so I can use whichever index finger is free), and n is /drop instant. Seems like my brain works with less effort when it's divided like that. Left for left, right for right. Plus I never have to move my hands when I play, and my wrists haven't hurt even once since I changed my setup in 2009 :P

But like potter said, I single bind most the time too, it's easier to make every turn how you want it to be with single binds. Only double(or triple) bind when I want tight doubles or triples.

As for who can call themselves a single binder: A single binder is someone who has one single key bound for each direction. If you "double sometimes", multi-binding is a prerequisite, making you a multi-binder.

I have like

Left arrow and right arrow for left and right, and down arrow for braking actions. And I singlebind with my right hand only, thats why I cant brake that good when i am singlebinding :D

And zx for left right on my left hand, glances on asd.
(z or y... its different for different countries, in germany it is y... it is only the key on the left side of x)

My hands never hurt. And I play since 2010 with this setup too ;D
Signature? wtf...
