    Since I suck at DM ... what recommendations do you have for a gaming mouse. Oh and I'll still pwn you girls in the tourney too.

    Here's the one I'm thinking of:

    Razer Copperhead High-Precision Gaming Mouse - Blue/Black
    Model: RZC-2000


    (I think I'm going to be getting a Best Buy giftcard soon).

    I had both the razor (returned it) and the logitech G5. I like the g5 alot more. It seems to be built better and logitech will replace it if you have any problems lifetime. it has a rubber grip like my glock and a weight system. the cord is coated in nylon so it is rigid and does not get in the way. I mean the cord does not "hang" frome the mouse causing drag. it feels like a glock with all the weight, the rubber texture is the same. if only it vibrated 8O


    btw way i don't have a glock, but i held one before BIYATCH

    Awesome feedback. They are both available there so now I'm leaning towards the Logitech one.

    I got the G5 and find it superb, though the 518 does have one more thumb button then the G5. Plus, I am now messing with the Razer eXactMat. It's totally rocks.

    yeah, all the reviews complain about the single thum button. and i agree. but that is made up with the tilting scroll wheel. the 518 is bad ass too. i do like the razors shape, but the g5 is my favorite because of it's feel and build quality. i just wish it had a carrying case, i would take it to work with me. cause i am a dork, okay?

    I use an old crown royal bag for my mouse.
    Here are some top notch mouse pads.

    Razer Mantis: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16817114325

    ICEMAT:

    Ratzpadz:

    Steelpad S&S:
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16817114704

    The steelpad looks like a good bet, but razer has a combo pad and wrist rest for cheap... Icemat is a huge piece of black glass.

    I'm impressed with the giant pad idea but I'm thinking I should stick with getting a desk big enough for it first.

    So the 518 is the best, eh? Is that the logitech 518 I assume?

    PS. Did anyone know that there is a spider on the 1 dollar bill?

    Ive got a Razor Diamondback RZD 1600 and ive tried the logitech ones, I dont care for the weight of the things. nor the side buttons, i think they are awkward, and sensitive. my mouse has 7 buttons all of which you have to push to set off!

    I like the sleek feel of mine too, for extedned periods of gaming, i felt the logitech made my hand cramp up.

    Truthfully, I use an mx500 for browsing, and the razer for gaming. I just like the position of the buttons on the mx500 (which is the same shape and size as the mx518 with different guts). There is a major difference in tracking between the mx500 and the razer. Funny thing is, i got the mx500 right after it came out. I got the razer the other day and I paid about the same for both...
