Aww OK, sorry about that then. Everyone should do what is comfortable/effective for them.

I'm happy it works for some people at least

I tried this on one of my PCs and it didnt make a difference. It takes about 12 or 13 seconds to reach the yellow part of the bar with using either one or two buttons pressed.

I have a usb keyboard plugged into a laptop and it works on that. I haven't tried any of the other pc's.

I use the left hand for the left control and escape keys, and the right hand for the right control and the arrow keys. It took about half a seltzer round to get used to the method, but after that I didn't notice anything different as far as delays or damage.

i tried it and it seems to go the same speed.. there is a down side to it... if you take one hand off one button u loose ur "juice" of the squirt and have to start over not to mention if u need to click the jump off button.... its just a mess!

I wouldn't say it's "a mess". It's just a different way to do this that would take some getting used to at first. I'm sure that the first few times aren't going to be flawless.

I mentioned that you shouldn't let go unless you're ready.

I'm in the habit of hitting the ESC key to jump off, so if I have to do that, then I'm obviously not too concerned with holding down the CTRL key(s) at the moment anyway. And if you are trying to jump off the table, using whichever method (ESC or mouse) then continuing to hold the CTRL key(s) wouldn't make sense either way. Your primary focus at that time becomes avoiding damage from the CEO's attack, your own attack will have to wait until you can get back on the table.

Ah well, it isn't going to work for everyone, and according to other comments it doesn't seem to work on all computers.

I'm going to be using this method from now on because it does work on my computer (and my mother's), it hasn't been a difficult adjustment for me and I do notice a difference in the charge speed, as do others. It's not like "Woah!" or anything, but it is a little faster and speaking for myself, that equals a little better.

It can't be that uncomfortable, unless you're trying to hold both of them with one hand!

Also note (for anyone else who is going to try it) if you let go of just one CTRL key - you will squirt (ready or not!) so, try not to let go until you are ready or unless you have to (Fore!).
My hand isn't big enough to hold both CTRL keys. LOL. And thanks for that heads up.

I found out that the vista launcher (or something like that) makes it load so much faster. I use it and it works so much! It basically skips the seltzer bottle.

I use to pump the "Page Up" key it seems to help but not really that much to be concerned in doing it but still do it it now and then.

It works on my laptop!!

I find it works best when first you hold down one ctrl key for a few seconds, then engage with the second one! It definitely works!

Props to Melodyelectrospeed!
