Once i looking for Thresh DM demo and find SDA random, 10z to PQ.com.Honeslty 4,5 years before i played alone on Q1 NH maraton over the episodes level after level without save or load or restart , when i died i restart from begining (episode), and play only with keyboard, then i played q2 dm with my friends too only with keyboard.I beat all of them , not because I'm good or very good, because they are too weak, one day one of them who was a studient in other town come to play with us and walk through us like a tank smashing chiken.I ask myself why?Because he played with mouse and keyboard.Very hard to me was to swich from only KB to KB and Mouse.For q2 I swiched , but for q1 I stayed only with KB , I was learned all my routes, monster distribution, secrets, movements only with KB and i do it they pretty fine , with mouse I played q1 sp really strange.Stop here because getin too long for that question :).
