So does any one have any strange quirks that they do wile playing games(board,card,computer,etc.)
On computer games I have ended up singing songs I like wile I play I also make obscure quotes to completely irrelevant things.(I actually do it all the time)
With board games I don't tend to want the first move which is the complete opposite when I play card games.

Oh hello there...you are a special one aren't you?
All web based games I have to listen to my own music or silence.
All downloaded games I have to listen to the in game music or silence (if it sucks or gets on my nerves like spelunky).
GTA and Saints Row I have to listen to my own music, but otherwise in console games I will listen to the in-game music.
I have to play console games standing up - only exception to this is RPG/Adventure games (Oblivion, Mass Effect etc).
In Monopoly I have to be the top hat or I won't play at all, simple as.
Card games have to have money in them, even if it's just spare change, I can't play unless there is money (with exceptions - Solitaire, Big2 and Snap)
I have lots of quirks some with exceptions to the rule - the exceptions make sense though.
Back when I used to play Starcraft frequently, I would sometimes impulsively assign a group of units to a control key repeatedly for several seconds, often 10 or more times before I stopped; completely uncontrollable urge.
Sometimes while playing computer games I just feel like pressing repeatedly or holding a certain key, and most often the right control key. I cannot explain this urge, and most of the time I pause the game and give in so that I can get it out of my system.
For years I would snap my fingers 3 times in a row repeatedly at any loading screens, like I had some magical power that by the 3rd snap the loading would be done.
I use the right mouse button for move forward -- and the middle mouse button for reload. Left mouse is still shoot.
FGHJ are Crouch, Back, Left, Right, respectively.
Spacebar is still Jump.
Also, I obsessively press buttons that have no function (or which I hope have no function) if I am not actively doing something.
Examples:
In TF2, I switch between weapons rapidly, and it sometimes makes me self-destruct my buildings as Engineer.
In Minecraft, I press the middle mouse button when I don't need to and it frequently makes me annoyed that I select blocks when I don't want to switch and I have to manually switch myself back and I keep doing it anyway.

"I want to see forum posts saying "how do i kill dragon" with replies reading "lol"."
---> vede claimed Notch said this (and it is awesome).
In Monopoly I am ALWAYS the car. ALWAYS. My car, GTFO of my car >.>
In certian board games I have to win or I stop playing xD
And in most computer game, I either listen to music using headphone from my iPod (I've got the same music on my computer with speakers, wtf XD), and sometimes I listen to silence, with headphones still in.

At the end of the day it's the chair I trust
The cushion is comfy and the works don't rust
With a straight line of vision to my Elvis bust
Watch the kingdom, eat the bread crust
There have been times where I've been playing a Nintendo racing game where you hold down a button like "A" to accellerate, and you never release hold of the button.
I notice I'm holding down the button after hours of playing, and I think "Wait, what does 'A' even do? Do I even need to keep holding it down?" so I take my thumb off of "A" and I look up at the screen to see if there's any difference.
If i press an opposite button i MUST press the other button in a odd number of times, ex: If i press the left mouse, i HAVE to press the right and do it two more times. (x3)
Whenever I am waiting for something long to update and can't do anything else, I make tea and try to drink the entire cup before it finishes.
Don't ask.

I'm not copying him or anything, I've just always done it.
Although if **** gets intense enough I start fidgeting and I eventually just stand up.
Also, I pace during loading sequences.
Currently I chew on my ponytail while games load.
