I spin in both ways and it doesn't seem to depend on anything. I am right handed by the way.
Zekira
Actually, looking at replays, I think most right-handed players spin CW. I spin CCW though.
GladiOol
Right handed spinning CCW here.
NotShinta
Right hand anti-clockwise. I don't get any other way.

Also what m980 said, this topic is completely pointless.
anonymous_old
I can spin either way. I recently switched to that, though; earlier, I spun only clockwise.

Left-handed, clockwise. :o

Right-handed, CCW. Just seems more natural to me.

I'm right handed and I spin clockwise, it feels weird to spin ccw. I guess I'm one of the weird ones.

Right-handed, whichever way I feel like doing it.

I'm right-handed and I can only spin counter-clockwise. Well... I can actually try spinning stuff clockwise, but that usually results in never clearing spinners in time (or messing everything up after I'm done).
Niva
Right-handed, could be Clockwise or Counterclockwise depending on the first direction that comes to my mind.

I handle a pen in my right and spin clockwise.

Right-handed. I absolutely cannot spin anti-clockwise. If I try, I might make it around once or twice before I unintentionally switch to clockwise without even thinking about it.

I'm also right handed and spinn CW, but now i have to try ccw... never tested xD

I'm both-handed and I can only spin anti-clockwise (btw. i more accustomed in holding my mouse in right hand)

but my friend which is right handed spin clockwise O.o

and my other friend who is right handed spin anti-clockwise just as I.

Right-handed. I spin anti-clockwise, because I find it more comfortable that way, but once again it's all about personal preferences.

I'm right-handed and spin in the anti-clockwise.
I can spin even 400-470.
It is a matter of habit, i think ;p

470? How the hell did you do that?
pieguyn
I use a touchpad mouse with my right hand and spin clockwise.

I must say, though, that if I were to use a normal mouse I'd probably still spin clockwise. It seems more intuitive to me.

I'm right handed and spin clockwise. Anit-clockwise is weeeeirrrdddd (I can do it, but still)
Frog
I'm right handed and spin clockwise, i also draw circles/o's clockwise too...
KRZY
I am right-handed, spin clockwise, and draw o's and circles counter-clockwise

I spin around 420~450 and my highest ranked spin speed is 471, so I guess right-handed clockwise spin is legit
--K--
Take mouse, put in hand. Grip it tightly like it was a rifle and you were in the middle of a firefight. Alternatively, grip it like it was your wallet or knife as you walk down an alley in the dark of night. Now, fling the plastic rodent-like device back and forth and every other which way. If the spin meter is rising, you're doing it right. If it's not going anywhere or it's falling, you're either doing too much side-to-side or you're doing some sort of bizarre clockwise-then-counterclockwise-then-clockwise-etc spin pattern that won't earn you and bonus points. Pick a direction and stick with it, at least for the duration of this spinner. Or half of the duration of this spinner. Or whatever.
If you take a look at autoplay, you'll notice that it gets about a 477 spin rate. Notice what the cursor is doing. The cursor is now diamonds The cursor is rapidly moving in a diamond-like formation around the center. Top, right, bottom, left, top, etc. Or maybe it's top, left, bottom, right, top. You have to go all around the spinner. If you spend all of your time spazzing out on the bottom half of the screen, the spinner is going to break your precious combo. Expand your horizons and spin where no man has spun before.
CaptainFlameGuy
Inspiring.

I'm right handed, and spin clockwise.
zagrom_old
Right, CCW.
Tho I often wonder if I could do better CW, hmm...

I find this topic interesting btw.
Yingwu
When i played standard mode i always did the spinners CCW and I'm right handed, the difference was around 100rpm lower if i swapped over to CW.
Doomsday
I'm right-handed, and spin Clockwise. Didn't realize that was a minority until recently :/
ihearthawthats
right-handed; counter-clockwise.

when you look at handwriting, i think the majority of circular characters are made with counter-clockwise motions, so it feels more natural to me.
Monte Cristo_old
Right-handed, spin Clockwise
Most players can beat me at spinner
Nakata Yuji
Lefty, but I play righty. I spin clockwise, and pretty slow due to my low mouse sensitivity. Works well though.

BTW I found something interesting, if you spin more -up'n'down- than -right'n'left-, your SPM will increase slightly (in #40 different over 50 SPM wil change your rank! 8-) )
Aoitenshi
Previously I spin CW, I looked at a replay and I see that CCW direction of spin seems... to be having more Friction, I tried to CCW, luckily I'm not stuck with the CW too long, Till now, I do CCW spin, If I want to CW spin, I'm spinning Slower than CCW and often forms a star pattern and turn to CCW spin accidently, I can't ever spin my right hand to CW Direction again, I lost one of my natural skill but upgrade my RPM

EvianBubble
I'm right handed and I spin clockwise. I never thought about it - the first time I did a spinner I just spun it that way
I kind of suck at spinners, though. I either miss or 100 them. I also hate it when beats come right after, because then I miss a lot. Spinners kill me and my combos :cry:
Ivan494
right handed and spins clockwise. although i still can't spin pretty fast but at least it's better than me trying to do it CCW :o
SomeGuyNamedDavid
Right handed clockwise. I can hit almost max (477 rpm is max, right? at least, according to Auto it is) if I spin fast enough, but if there's a note right after the spinner good luck. I usually end up stopping a little early if I see one coming up. I've got timing down, but my problem is actually hitting the notes that are closely grouped but far apart on harder songs. I'm a bit of an amateur. :?
Crakila
Right Hand
Counter-Clockwise Spin

I seem to perform better by going CCS, but as the first reply stated. Personal Preference
Umandsf
I used to be good at spinning, but I think the lack of playing for a while has affected my recent playing. Can't quite seem to get that rhythm I had. I guess I need more practice.
[Scene]
Right-handed and clockwise...CCW feels unnatural to me.
Tatsuo-san
OK, this time for me... right-hand is OK, also counter-clockwise. But I'm not good at this spin thing. I don't actually know how to spin it. But sometimes it's spining too fast. And I don't know how I do this. It make me sad! :D
Ashkanz

So does this make my propensity for spinning clockwise strange, or am I just left-handed and unaware of it? I just find clockwise spinning more natural and easy to do, so that's how I do the spinners, and I am very much right-handed.

I'm predominantly left handed (although I do use my right hand to eat/write/hold mouse). I've been going clock-wise but recently switched to counter clock-wise and found it to be easier.

I spin CCW, or atleast I try.

My spins are absolutely horrible and I feel ashamed every time I fail a spinner cause I rotate too hysterically, making me do half spins and end up with 170 spins per minute :?

What's with the recent surge of thread necroing? I guess it's fine if you add something new to the discussion but come on, that post isn't even 8 characters long, and there was even a different thread about this going not long ago. Hey you forum moderators, get rid of all the useless stickies (or merge them into fewer) and add a big new sticky that explains how to not necro threads...
NamidaRain
i started by spinning clockwise but it felt slow all the time, since i use a mouse.. then I tried counter clockwise and stuck with it
-GN
I don't really know, but I thought there were next to no clockwise spinners here until I read this thread. The only one I've seen is a friend of mine who doesn't have an account.
But hey, there's no right and wrong when it comes to spinning. Or am I wrong on this one?

Obviously there is no right or wrong to spinning. If for example clockwise spinning would give more points, it would most likely be mentioned in the tutorial or something ;)

Yakuyan
Right handed = Counter Clockwise (Anti-Clockwise) but when there is a beat right after the spinner, I spin clockwise.
Maneuver
Right handed CCW while using the least energy required and spin as small as possible aiming the center or the spin. Usually 300~400 spin per minute.
