I use the default hotkeys, however for buildings and queuing units I simply go with CTRL-6 for TC CTRl-7 for Barracks and CTRL-8 for stable and just memorize the unit buttons (CTRL-7 then shift L =barracks and 5 longbows for example)

I'm the only nutcase in this clan who doesn't use any hotkeys at all hehe.
Well, apart from T and V that's about it. If I was to learn and use hotkeys I'd probably play much better but the fact is I'm too lazy.

I also use almost all standard hotkeys. Most of them actually make sense. M 4 market and V 4 vil, S 4 stable and B 4 rax

Actually, come to think of it, if I'm playing with the intent to win, which admittedly isn't a lot of the time nowadays, I will force myself to use CTRL + B, S, M, etc.
It doesn't half make me laugh when I forget what's what regarding hotkeys and my villies are jabbing away at hussars and my musketeers are having a tea party on the other side of the map.
Lapse of judgement for the win.

I use mostly the standard ones, with a few exceptions:
Train vil: Spacebar
Attack move : W
Build wall: Q
I am an FPS guy and I feel so at home hitting W when in doubt
