Nope.

Are your 4s closed at the top in a point or open?

I do. When I see other people write a 7 without a dash, I feel as if they didn't complete the character like forgetting to dot your "i"s or crossing the "t"s.

Do your 1s have a hook on the top or do they look like a lowercase L?

is the "hat" of the 5 drawn in the opposite direction, or is there another 2 stroke method?

I pity all the 2 stroke suckers who waste time !

 

[BW86]

One stroke.

 

[MustangSVT]

wow.. some ppl use 1 stroke? 😀

things I learn from ATOT are mind boggling.

 

[Mrvile]

I can do two faster than I do one, so I don't worry about how long it takes. It just seems more natural.

 

[Platypus]

2 strokes, dashed 7's, open 4's

I think its efficiency vs traditional. I usually go the efficient way, but if I need my 5's to be more distinguised over an funky "S", then i'll opt for the 2 strokes.

I can't remember the last time I wrote.
