Button Configuration Help

[ZacTASTIC]

So I currently only play on TetrisFriends.com (Blockbox is too... awkward for me right now =P) and I desperately need to learn how to double rotate, but my button layout is not very helpful in this endeavor...

What button configurations would you recommend?
Currently...
Up = rotate right
Shift = rotate left (i never use)
control = hold
down = soft drop
space = harddrop

what's a more... optimal button layout? And I know that it should be whatever's comfortable, but I'm going to learn to double rotate, so it will be uncomfortable at first anyway.

I just use a very standard setup

left=left
right=right
up=harddrop
down=softdrop
z=rotate left
x=rotate right
c=rotate left
a=hold (this might be a bit odd)

q - rotate left
e - rotate right
space - hold
up - hard drop
down - soft drop
left - left
right - right

you REALLY do need to change to both direction rotate. It will have to be done sooner or later

Check out these forum links. If you still are looking for a good setup:

Heres what I use...

Left = numpad 7
Right = numpad 9
Hard Drop = numpad 8
Soft Drop = Numpad 0 (lol)

Rotate Left = q
Rotate Right = e
Hold = w
Item = spacebar

Items do appear in various modes of Tetris, hence why I left a spot for it.

I use:

Left - left arrow
Right - right arrow
Hard Drop - space bar
Soft Drop - down arrow

Rotate left - Z
Rotate right - X
Hold - left shift
Item -V

I'm very comfortable with this setup, each finger has its own separate key and function (except item, which is rarely use).  I read a couple places having hard drop on the spacebar is a bad idea, why would that be?  The only reason I can think of is that in some versions you cant hard drop if you are moving a piece, which would make a difference somewhat.
