A simple question: If faced with a symmetrical map, like

, do you go right or left?

I go right.
Just a habit I guess.

I tend toward the left; right feels uncomfortable.

It's different every map. I think it's mainly based on the way the demo I watched before I started went.
But then again, I tend to go left.

I have a tendency to choose right. But whichever direction I select, I'll stick with it.

Despite the fact that I play with the arrow keys, I'm left-handed. Thus, I go left.

If there is a walljump necessary within the first few frames, I go left. When there is a doublejump, I go right.
If the level meets none of these conditions, I go right.
Right and a Half.

I have no idea...
I just choose it randomly, switching if I die three times in a row for some reason :P

Left. It's hard for me to look at the right side, but I geuss that's because the N window appears on the left.

I go right, because that's the way the ninja faces at the beginning.

I go left, socially. I go right, economically. I go left, phallically. I go right, handedly.

I usually start to the right. It's weird how symmetrical maps are identical no matter which way you start, and yet, as atob said, one side usually seems harder to do.

I go right, because I feel my ring finger has a higher dexterity with the arrow key :D

Mostly left. There are times when I go left for apparently no reason.
However if i watch a demo of the map before I play it, i will 99% of the time go the same way as the demo.

I pretty much always go left, even though I'm right-handed. Weird.

Right is always right, yet left is never right (as it's left)
following this, i always go right
i only change this if i watched a demo before. Unlike anyone else though, i tend to go the opposite way to that in the demo

I tend to right, though I usually tend to go right in a building I entered.
It's like a habit.
