Controllers?

[Ljublijana]

This is a dumb question, but would USB controllers work with WorldWinner or King? The hand starts to hurt on the mouse clicks! LOL.

would you be able to give an example of what you mean by a 'USB Controller'? (If you mean for example, plugging in an xbox 360 controller, installing a piece of software to allow you to use that as a mouse... Then I think that would work just fine, but it would slow me down a lot)

Yes, that's what I mean, a controller with a D pad. It seems it would be more comfortable for Bejeweled and shooter games. Thanx!

have you tried a trackball?

Try looking through Buy Video Games for Consoles and PC - From Japan, Korea and other Regions! - Play-Asia.com if you want to look online for a console pad adaptor.

Do you think it's possible to play the games with a touch screen like the HP TouchSmart? Or would that trigger the anti cheat software?

People have been using that for Solitaire Rush on Worldwinner, along with other card games on skill gaming sites. As far as I've read, it's legal to utilize.

Hmm I see. I've always thought about playing Mahjong games with a touch screen, so you can use two hands and don't need to move from one tile to the other. But since King tracks mouse movements (or so I've read) I didn't think they'd allow it.

Maybe I should contact them and ask. Then again, I don't have a touch screen, and those things are bloody expensive... but I suppose it would pay itself off in the end.

I can't speak for King.com / WorldWinner.com but what Dukesbox does is track mouse movements / click speed and then plots it against all the data from the other gameplays of that game, if that data is very different from the norm, and the score is high enough to get flagged (i.e. in the top 10% of all scores in that game) it will cause the system to send me an e-mail telling me to investigate that particular game further... I'd imagine that it would trigger King.com's system also but only if you get a massively high score from using a touchscreen

[Jacob]

Would you disallow a player from using a touchscreen on Dukesbox? What's your opinion on using a special device/utility to gain a competitive edge?
