worst i got was 7.5-7 avg, best was 8.5 -7.5

How do you guys tap so fast?

(the 8-7.5 was like hard to maintain for like 2 seconds i dropped back to 7, but then in relation to my friend my video game skillz have never been so good exept for worms).

Finger roll. Use both fingers to tap more rapidly.

i use the one fingerage simple because when i finger roll i don't give the space bar enough time to get up before i tap it back down. any suggestions for me?

Use a double finger roll, but a little bit slower than normal then.

Besides, you don't need to tap 10 times a second.

ummm i can't do it i tried i can only do if i use both hands lol, and when i got my gf i started to play less i practice everyday a rope race or 2 with 6 worms until they die, but i can no longer shadow properly it's to angled and in rope races i always crash in my shadows.

Besides, you don't need to tap 10 times a second.

But i do need a reasonable speed, cause I'm not doing well tapping wise. i don't think it's my kb but i dunno i go to fast cause i go upa nd down with 1 finger and from the time i go up to the time i go down the key doesn't move up unless i go slower.

Why do you need to be able to tap your keyboard 10 times a second? There may be a time when you need to tap the space bar twice to do somethine on the rope quickly in W:A, but that doesn't need to be incredably fast.

The angle the rope fires from your worm is dependent on the angle the rope was when you detached it.

I'm confused here (probably due to laziness). I clicked the link and did a search for "tapo" and nothing was listed anywhere. I checked downloads and it wasn't there either. where are you guys finding this thing on that site?

ah, there we go.

11.6 single-fingered and I'd go slower if I used 2 so I won't bother.

Not what i meant i mean the worm falls angled I'm such a slow tapper, i was moving some junk from my basement today and haven't been on all day so sorry for the slow reply.

and yes i do know that the angle the rope is fired is i believe the exact opposite above a certain angle bu t thats just what i understood.... :P

Er...? Why does the worm fall at an angle. And why do you need to tap the space bar 8 times a second?

falls at an angle cause i tap soooo slow.

the rope shoots at the angle you set... and repeat swings are the opposite to what the rope was when you de-tached... but there is a limit... you can re-swing with the rope below a (45 degree?) angle.

What? You're a slow tapper, so the worm falls at an angle? Demonstrate.

ok i'll try to explain and if i can't later tonight if i have itme i'll video it up. but here:

when you shadow it's 3 quick taps. I tap twice fast latch on then wait a partial second as i'm to slow at tapping and as the worm moves down cause of gravity i press space and he falls downward to the side he was swinging downward to.

Then don't bother doing a full shadow. You can drop yourself down quite easily and only lose half a second.

And a double finger roll (not really necessary and completely pointless when roping), just alternate between fingers. Start slowly and accelerate.
