For example, binding two keys for a left turn, and then pressing them both simitaniously will result in a quick one-eighty turn-around. Double-binding has a long and glorious history smattered with a fair bit of controversy along the way.

History

An example DB setup

The earliest known double binder is Locutus. His reasoning was that since he had a bit of carpal tunnel syndrome, it was easier to play the game if he bound two or more keys to the same actions. So when he started doing it, it was to deal with a condition that might otherwise be considered disabling. You know, kinda like having one of those doughnut pillows to drive.

From there, it started spreading to younger more able-bodied individuals who wanted to exploit it to get the other guy. On the older servers, it wasn't a large problem because if you turned around too quickly against a wall, your cycle bounced.

After a certain period of time, another player by the name of Digital Logic popularized the phrase "Double binding is a crutch of the weak", talked a bunch of trash on the forums, and then ran away when the inevitable challenge came. We had the tournament anyway, it was a lot of fun. [http://forums.armagetronad.net/viewtopic.php?t=1018
