I'd tap my feet according to the rhythm, which is a good thing.

The bad thing is that I'll tap them real fast and hard when I get nervous and even my mouse are shaking because of that.

When getting a good combo, I happen to notice and get nervous. Legs shake, and my mouse movements become erratic, which results in a combo break. :cry: Also,raeg if it counts.

Durring breaks I'll quickly alternate between the X and Z to do something. If I don't do that, I feel I miss the starter more.

I alternate between Z and X key when I play but when there are 3-4consecutive hit circles spaced apart, I use either X/Z to hit ALL 3-4Hit circles between switching back

I have a few... One is that I slowly tilt my head to the left while playing until I realize that I'm doing it and fix it, if it's a longer song it could happen again :p

Holding my breath, when it's getting hard on a map. Also letting my mouth open while doing huge jumps. I don't why, but I can keep being concentrated then. >:o

I sometimes get super determined to FC a beatmap and i won't stop playing until I've succeded. Banchobot tracked the amount of retries I did on "Uchida Maaya - Gimme Revolution!" and it got up to 1700.

I don't do it anymore, but my eyes used to close when I was doing spinners.

Also I used to tilt my head slightly to the left when I was playing sometimes. Stopped that too.

missing notes

I singletap with each individual finger, and also alternate. The finger I singletap with is decided by the finger I last landed on after a stream or alternating section. I only alternate to keep stamina, or to do really fast singletap patterns (like 250-260bpm or higher), as well as some jump patterns since that takes some of the strain off of my tapping hand allowing me to focus more on aiming.

I also lean in when I'm trying to spin fast, and for some reason there are some specific patterns that I can't play without cursor dancing. As in, if I go in a straight line I fuck them up somehow, but when I cursordance I do fine. Still don't get why this is, and it's only with like 3 or 4 patterns I've ever seen.

I normally alternate (badly on everything). On rare occasions, when I get frustrated enough with the start of a map that I think I should be able to FC, I'll try to singletap it. I can't singletap for shit but sometimes it gets me through the start of the map so I can break combo immediately after from my terrible singletapping. If that doesn't work, I'll turn on DT or FL for 1 or 2 attempts and feel demoralized when I fail really quickly.

Weird habits...

Always tilting my body to the right while playing. Not sure if it's a bone issue.
And... always fucking up my pen hand stability and broke combos around 100x before the song ends. T_T

1. I snap as fast as I can, putting speed above aim
2. Sometimes I just play with relax but tap anyways, pretending that it's my clicks causing the hits and that my hand synchronization is good.

Because it's not, nobody I've ever seen holds a mouse perfectly straight. It doesn't affect jumps.

I realized something when I was playing last night. I curl my toes up tightly and stress the muscles in my legs during high pressure situations. I guess in an attempt to keep me from tensing up in my arms/fingers/wrists, I subconsciously tense up other muscles. I have to say it's pretty successful. I can generally stay pretty loose in the areas that matter.

I actually do that too sometimes. I press the top part of my right foot against my desk. It somehow feels that by applying pressure on my foot, my hands stay more "relaxed" (?). It's weird, I can't really explain it. Maybe it's just a reaction to the nerves.

Hitting my keys realy hard when I feel I can't keep up on streams. Hitting hard when jumping too.
Sometimes tapping to the beat using the two keys at the same time during breaks especialy on songs I realy like.
Readjusting my pen almost every breaks.
I like to spin my cursor everywere in the game and during breaks but on spinner I get slow RPMs.
Almost always lucky 100/50 hit notes after a spinner that seam to be the end of the map.
Checking combo/accuracy/position in MP... while playing and missing.

I tend to daydream/think deeply when I'm playing OSU....
When I'm bored.:P
Thus causing me to lose combo! :O
Or fail the map......
But 95% of the time I don't fail or lose combo~
So-i somehow can play OSU while daydreaming/thinking which is weird......
:/

I tilt my head to the right whenever it gets hard for me, it usualy results in horrible neck pain :c

I wear my headphones even though I play with speakers on most times

I tug my shirt during every break even thought the song might be easy

I can't play unless i sit on my left feel and shake my right.

I don't think it's uncommon to start thinking about other stuff in osu!, so instead I'll list my other habit :

I start tilting my head to the left the more I play. It's pretty noticeable. The harder the song, the more the tilt.

I shake my left foot when I get really into a map.
It's not even to the beat of the song, I just have random foot spasms.
My accuracy always goes up when I do it though.

Forget my pen grip until i warm up, and when im already warm up i want to stop playing for now , then the cycle repeats so my improvement is kinda stuck .

Any time the song decides to play notes to the beat, but you have small little "breaks" in between each note, I decide to do a little swing of the mouse or something.

... which happens to make me miss sometimes.

Same here; I've also developed a habit of flipping the bird (middle finger) on my monitor whenever I'm frustrated and miss a note/fail a song, in a way to release the stress.

I took a drink of Red Bull right before a song started, played the entire thing, then realized I didn't swallow until after the song was over. I literally sat there with Red Bull in my mouth through the entire play and had no idea.
