People tend to be very surprised when I mention this to them. Although playing with a trackpad may seem extremely hard, it really isn't that bad. I'm used to it and changing to a mouse just wouldn't work for me. Plus, I play on my bed and it's far too comfortable to leave.
Does anyone else here use a touchpad, or ever tried PVPing with one on MCSG? Please say I'm not the only one!

I cannot play with a track pad, I've tried and I failed. Using a track pad to PvP is just impossible for me. xD

I've heard about this technique a few times before. I feel that it doesn't give you quite the same feeling of control as you would feel with a mouse, so I don't use a track pad.

Mouses are easier to control, and easier to use. Mouses just work better for nearly anything, especially if you play video games.

I use mine whenever my wireless mouse runs out of battery. Thankfully, it's a trackpad meant for gaming (Even if that is a bit oxymoronic) So it gets the job done. Still prefer a mouse though.

I can barely use a trackpad for playing Minecraft, so anyone who can use one and do well in PvP is amazing.

When I started playing mcsg I wasn't well off with computers all I had was a crappy laptop and no mouse so I used a trackpad for a good 3-4 months, I could probably go back to it if ever needed and do fine on it.
