legend, just place the 'nt' between the tricks and it's even clearer than just a open space ;)
Later when you're older, you'll see skora doing a crazy combo and you'll want to write it down (I don't know why, but you'll really want to ^^). I'm sure you'll be happy when you could write 23 spaces instead of 23 times nt.

I'm pro for Golo's solution.


btw I got a question that's maybe offtopic but i don't want to make a new topic just for that lol.
How do english freestylers say atw?
Do they say

a (like in hey) t (like "tea") w (like nintendo "wii")
or
a (like in hey) t (like "tea") w (dubble u)

?
Just wondering  ;)

I don't like the idea but while you're at suggestions of this kind I say this; skip the atw in amatw and such so eg
Tatw amatw nt becomes
t - am nt

You actually think this way "atw-atw-t-am nt-htw" would be easier/more logical/better than "atw-atw-tatw amatw-htw"? :saywhat:


How would you write taatw amatw then?
ta - am nt
I don't think it's a great idea I just wrote it in this thread since it was a similar idea to what yours was
btw I will continue to write like I've always done which is
atw atw htw htw atw hatw tatw amatw nt htw atw blablabla
Fx blesses himself before a patw combo, Tiernan blesses himself before a neck to sole transition.... but hey thats next generation :rolleyes:
I was going to be there...but now I'm not going to be there

you're probably right thomas  :thumbsup: but i dont take the time to write down a combo which has 23 notouches ;)

and i think they say  hey-tea-wii, thats how i would say it because its easier and it sounds stupid if you are talking to someone about a combo and you say: i did atdouble u - atdouble u - hopdouble u - amatdouble u yesterday

because its much harder to understand for beginners. if u add an nt  the people will ask what nt stands for and then they will learn what nt is. In Golos idea the beginners wont see that there is a thing called nt or no touch and so they will get confused.
they will just probably as well ask why there are "-" between som tricks and no "-" between others just as likely as they'll ask what nt stands for, and then I'll answer " "-" meant "to", and if there's no "-", it's a no touch combo". So "-" is just as easy to learn as nt and looks better when you're typing a combo.

-=touch
 =no touch

simple as

Or they'll ignore it ... It's easier to ignore a missing "-" than a "nt".

atw-htw-htw-atw-tatw-atatw-atw-htw-htw-atw-tatw-atatw-atw-htw-htw-atw-tatw atatw-atw-htw-htw-atw-tatw-atatw

atw-htw-htw-atw-tatw-atatw-atw-htw-htw-atw-tatw (nt) atatw-atw-htw-htw-atw-tatw-atatw-atw-htw-htw-atw-tatw-atatw

just do both ways, nt for short combos so it looks clear, and '-' or ' ' for the longer combos so you dont have to type so much

Oh, and I guess beginners understand shit like atatw, taatw, hhtw. You'd probably have to explain things anyways, the meaning of (nt) as well, so it comes down to the same shit really.

What actually IS annoying is when people write "tatw nt amatw" instead of tatw amatw(nt)"
makes a lot of confusion if someone types for example:

"atw-atw-htw-tatw-matw(nt) amatw-htw-atw-atw"

when the combo they actually are talking about is

"atw-atw-htw-tatw-matw-amatw(nt)-htw-atw-atw"

The (nt) sign should NOT be put inbetween the "notouching" tricks.
