[stoph]

online WPM test

[Penumbra]

22 wpm....I fail.

I do have to add in my defense that I don't know how to type.

[Mitchell]

48 wpm, 1 mistake. fuck I suck. It probably doesn't help that I type only with my index fingers.

[yinteck]

24 wpm..Damit ! i am not good at typing
Stoph r u serious ..80wpm, that is fast..

[PerinGalitte]

Beaten!

One mistake for being grammatically correct and obsessive with my dots.... The sample extract didn't have a full stop.

[stoph]

DAMNIT! i would've gotten more if i hadnt decided to erase about 5 mistakes and retype the words. its ONNN!!

[davi]

my print screen hasn't worked in years so you'll have to take my word at 83 with a weird typo for it wanting "THE" instead of "The"... guess i don't understand the grammar of that.., but i never said i was any good at grammar...

[Blue]

52wpm. yeesh and I thought I was a fast typist...

[Ilaekae]

9 words. 17 mistakes. ...and I got my name wrong.

[stoph]

sigh.. i cant go anywhere past 85WPM, or my accuracy goes out the window. i think i would get much higher if i werent so obsessed with fixing any mistakes i make along the way, wasting precious time. to date, PerinGallite is the reigning champ!

[daestwen]

I got 55, but i had to go back and rewrite a few words because i got nervous and sloppy.

Edit: Tried it again, 70 wpm with no mistakes.

[Qitsune]

44wpm, that's about what I was expecting, at my old job, we qualified for diff positions in the company with typing tests and that's what I had back then.

[Earendil]

86 with no mistakes, but like stoph I went back to correct mistakes five times.

Hey...Perin's extract is from ROTK. No fair!

[Nighthall]

Yay! 46 wpm, 2 mistakes.

Why the dang do I have to spell Big Woods with capital letter in woods? That was one of my mistakes (:

[Rist]

I am trying to gt used to the macbook pros keyboard (you need to really HIT the keys and centered in order to have it registered). If I typed on the keyboard I have used for years I might type in a more efficient way, thus reducing mistakes and caution.

Yeah I know, I only got 37wpm ad 3 mistakes. I would try it on my pc if i cared enough

after a lifetime of using a regular PC keyboard, i find the transition to mac keyboards even easier. i felt the big, chunky keys of a regular keyboard cumbersome, whereas it feels like it takes less effort to press each key on a mac

[stoph]

actually stoph, PC's are now so customizable that there's much more of a variety of quality of keyboards and there not all a gray bage colour, either.

BLASPHEMY!!

[0kelvin]

50 wpm, no mistakes! Much better than I expected, actually.

[PerinGalitte]

*flexes* Raaawr!

[Linguini]

Aaah, this brought out my competitive side. XD

My best was 92 WPM, 2 mistakes. My best with no mistakes was 87 WPM. I actually did like, five of the tests because I wanted to read the passage. D:



P.S. Although copying and pasting got the best result.

Still don't know what mistake that was, though.

[Flakari Leader]

I got 53 words per minute with no mistakes, I'm surprised since I did better than my final test 5 years ago when I drilled it.

[enrigo]

Linguini: LOL, bullet-time typing skill.

[Joshua Fountain]

73 WPM with 0 mistakes.

[waronmars]

I couldn't be bothered typing out the whole paragraph... oh well.

[egerie]

Bah, this is no fun. Try the game THE TYPING OF THE DEAD!!! (dun dun Duuun!). It's based on House of the Dead2 for those who go to arcades. You can play coop on LAN too A heck of a lot more stressful ehehe
Edit: Forgot.. 78 wpm no mistakes.

[JL.Alfaro]

hell yeah!
beat that suckas

and I barely use my keyboard too

[PerinGalitte]

*gawks in disbelief* Wow.

[stoph]

JL.Alfaro is teh win! tremble in his awesomenesss

[AphexTweak]

65 wpm, no mistakes... not to bad...

[alesoun]

Hah! I checked this out a couple of days ago; 22wpm, 3 mistakes.
It LIES! Anyone who talks to me on irc knows I'm not nearly as good as that!
