This was on the second time, since I didn't quite get the fact that I was supposed to type right there and then without a window. I stalled and panicked. But this is the second run. ONE error. ;_;

Kinda disappointing really, but I have never been really good at typing down what I am reading.

Doesn't seem like it, Tube. Unless you meant "Competitors." =p

I never realised how slow at typing I am.

Sup.

Tests like that aren't a good indicator of one's ability to type. Copying something, my speed is less than 50WPM. However, writing something on the fly, such as this paragraph, I can go above 80WPM for long periods of time, or even 100 if I'm in the zone.

I'm getting rusty. To be honest, I found the blue text to be very distracting as I typed, and the fact that once you hit the space bar you cannot backspace to correct a mistake is complete and utter bullshit.

I was too lazy to take a screenshot, but I remember being just under 90 words per minute. Since I primarily type with just my index fingers and thumbs, I am rather impressed with myself. I imagine if I had learned to type with all of my fingers, then I would be far better at it.

Ya, I'm in a hurry, so I messed up more than usual, and I tend to 'correct.'
I like Finland <3... they probably chose it because it has funky words.

Jesus Christ, Arainach. That is sick. You pwn about 95% of the world's typists with stats like that.

I am humbled.

Alright, this is what I really got:

Thanks. In addition to spending WAY too much time around computers (I'm a Computer Science major who works at a Programming Job and even spends a bit of his spare time on the things), I've learned to love ergonomic keyboards. In my opinion they give me a bit of a speed boost in addition to the obvious comfort benefits.

Just for kicks, I'll take the test on my laptop (I hate laptops, and my typing slows considerably on them). I'm only going to take the 1 minute test because I dislike laptop typing.

......I'm posting a screenshot of this one because even I don't believe it.

Took it again, and improved a bunch, for some reason.

I never realize just how slow I was. ;_;

I shouldn't have taken this test that much to get the best possible result, since my typing skills steadily lowered. During the first tries, I hovered around 130 - 140 WPS and now I'm not even able to write "hoch" correctly anymore. So I just have to beat Arainach's result, I guess. If you can have a muscle ache in your fingers, I probably have this right now.

Better than nothing, although 13 mistakes are pretty ridiculous. I hate this part when those characters suddenly start to talk with each other, since my fingers always flounder while typing with such a high speed, when it comes to "..?" and stuff like that.

And yet nobody believes me that I'm normally able to write faster and without that much mistakes. :(

97 wpm.

Honestly I'm shocked. I thought I was burning through all sorts of time correcting myself. I couldn't HELP it. easier to just do it then push myself not to.

Also, the first time around I made a space where there shouldn't have been, and every word past that was dinged as wrong even though they were typed just fine. Wtf, guys.

Ahaha, check out the top 100. The highest is 160 wpm, that's insanity.

Let's just say I'm not becoming a courtroom stenographer any time soon 46 wpm.

70 WPM on my mother's laptop. It's one of those Vaios with the pathetically tiny keyboards.

Tried it on my laptop a few days ago and got 106.

Ugh, I remember hating this particular test.

103 wpm, 2 errors, net 101 wpm, 98% accuracy.

I always disliked this one because they use text which are littered with punctuation issues and because of the not being able to backspace an already finished word.

Actually I recently took an offical typing test for a certificate of typing

Man you guys are really fast, I got

43WPM with 1 error which means 2 wrong for the test

so 41 WPM

Looks I'm not the slowest one.

Notice the sharp drop in accuracy. :tpg:

I'm still outraged over the absence of commas before "and" in the lists. Yargh!

Generally in articles, people don't write ",and". However, it's still fine to use the comma. I remember my journalism elective teacher took 2 friggin' points off everytime I had a list.

In what sentence was that? It's not always required to use a comme before ''and''.

Meh it's okay, but I normally don't type this fast. Usually about 60 WPM is my "nominal speed":

"This trend is particularly prominent in consolidating global industries such as airlines, telecoms, automobiles and chemicals, but also in rapidly expanding internet-related industries featuring players like Cisco, Microsoft and AOL."

I've always been taught to put a comma before the "and" in cases such as this one, but then again, I wasn't taught too many exceptions.

I never knew that, nor have I taken journalism. :tpg: But at least I know now!

I think I slowed down a little in the second minute. It's still about where I expected to be.

Some of you really must be chatting it up in AIM.

Playing text-based MUD-type games since I was 8 or so probably helped :\ There's also no way I could maintain this speed for any significant amount of time, I was blasting away as fast as possible on this short test though. I'm typing on a cramped laptop keyboard, though my typing style seems to work as well on it as a full keyboard. I kind of developed it on my own and when I tried to actually learn touch-typing with the home keys or whatever, I could never do it. Wonder how everyone else types :P

Edit: This lady is crazy fast, she also uses Dvorak for her highest speeds :P
