Exactly.  When I was a drummer I'd get similar callouses where my rings were.


Or, if reading it as a double entendre:  Exactly.  I always take off my wedding ring before robotroning myself.  Otherwise I feel like I'm being unfaithful :)

I stopped playing Robotron when my hands began growing hair on them.

That means you are doing it correctly! If you want to play the best game ever created, you gotta expect some pain.
