I don't want it to keep getting worse, although I hear it probably won't get any better without something medically happening. So good luck in your pursuit for #1 dood. All you Dood's. It was a fun ride, but I'm outta here, at least for now.
    Whoa, I think I missed this post. My dr said the one shot of steroids in the thumb usually fixes the problem right away (within a week), sometimes needs two shots. I've had less popping today than I have had in a while. Worse case, there's a 10 minute surgery that fixes it immediately.

    Now, as much as you use your thumb to play... play with your iphone/pad on a table and use your index and middle fingers. Will take some adjustments to get the feel right, but you don't have to quit, Rook. You're way too valuable to this community

    Hmmm....I'll have to at least check out this style of playing out. I really do want to play, and this sounds like it might be a possible solution. I'll probably just suck for awhile. MW3 is coming up next week and I wanted to see if laying off the Heroz would help fix my thumb that is locked out straight. I doubt it will and suspect that surgery is somewhere in my future.

    So I guess I'll give your technique a try for now. I've never been very good at quitting things that I love....but who is really??

    Yea I gave it a shot. (Robz technique), all be it a small shot, but that's going to be it. I can't play all that good, and it just makes me want to play my normal way and I shouldn't. I like the idea of going out on top...and I'll jump in a game from time to time I bet, and I'll keep an eye on the rooms.

    Definitely not out of the way.... I'd rather best you with skill and have you around till the end than have you hafts quit... Friggin thumbs... Who needs them anyways!

    I have a suggestion redlynx.... We need a thumbless relic in honor of rookyj! Maybe that will keep him going

    So tonight I was thinking of what else could be done to change up the pace of this game.

    A cool game mode I came up with

    1. Separate leader board
    2. Same track as the original game mode
    3. Get as many times as you want in 24 hours to practice the track
    4. A post score button

    So when you think you're ready you hit the post score button and make your run. That is the only score you can post. I think this would be a lot of fun and maybe not too difficult to do.

    Yeah, that idea is pretty much in the same vein as something I proposed earlier about a game mode in which you'd only have a certain number of runs or restarts for achieving your time. So you have my full support! Would be cool if the Redlynx guys would drop by in this thread, cause I think we have collected a number of really great ideas here!

    I don't own the game, but this is exactly a game from Motoheroz, where you can practice and practice, but get 1 real run that counts. It sounds intense! Also, I'd always lose hahaha. I am far too inconsistant.
