When I started using mouse I kept fire on space as it was in the Marathon series. Only later years did I switch to the regular WASD with fire on the mouse.
That reminds me, i did finish Q1 (SP) with keyboard only. :) I'm not sure about Q2, but i think i played that with keyboard too for a part. I remember trying to play the Q3 demo with kb in the beginning. All because of my 1337 skillz i built up in wolf3d, doom series, duke3d, shadow warrior, etc. :icon31:

mouse3 - zoom/alt
mousewheel - weapon scroll
h - strafe left

i use both. mostly the left mousebutton, but sometimes space for mg and sorts, makes it easier to follow targets while shooting.

exactly, I was very surprised that many people actually do that
me. strafejumping is quite easy that way
only goes for quake though, it really depends on the game (alt fire, use, inv, etc) what button i use for jump
