Typing speed test! Try it!

My best seemed to top out at 79 words per minute at 97% accuracy.

[Wezas]

81 WPM 1 errors

On this retarded laptop keyboard.

::edited to add::

Tried again, this time taking my watch off.

82 WPM 0 errors

not much better :no:

[Edited on 10-16-2004 by Wezas]

[GSLeloo]

Mine was 82 WPM and a 98% accuracy.

[Kitsun]

I would probably stab someone if I tried on my laptop, the damn touchpad gets set off if my hands just wave over it and clicks my mouse all over the bloody place.

[SpunGirl]

82 wpm with 96% accuracy.

Should do a study relating WPM of regular GS'ers to casual players.

Some of the record holding scores are like 120WPM, its kinda nuts. I think it might be because people memorize whats there but can you imagine those fingers flying?

[Telfaahga]

86 WPM, 92% accuracy

[Bobmuhthol]

78 WPM, 97% accuracy.

[Wezas]

3rd and final try on a real keyboard:

Thanks mom for making me take that typing class in 10th grade.

[Wezas]

That Huck Fin story is retardely fucked up grammar. I had to second think things while I'm typing.

[Artha]

You guys are like molasses. Error prone molasses.

[Bobmuhthol]

I took the 3 minute test and ended up fatigued by the end. :(

[SpunGirl]

And for only $9.90 you can get a nifty internet certificate proving how fast you can type! Wahoo!

-K

[Kitsun]

the Huck Finn one was waaaaaay messed up. It felt like I lost braincells by trying to conform to its blahness.

Yeah my score was off the 3 minute test. Figure its more accurate than a one minute splurt.

[Zentoph]

First try was 107 or so.

This is my second try.

Man, I wonder how fast you could type if you used both hands....

[Liberi Fatali]

I made the 'top 100 typists of the month.' I've always loved this sight. I like to show off my incredibly fast typing capabilities. It used to show the users NAME on the top 100, though. The highest I've ever been ranked is 3rd. I don't see how you can get over 130 WPM. My fingers were literally FLYING, and I could only get 122.

TYPING TEST RESULTS

Here are your full test results:

- Test Name: Huckleberry Finn
- Date: 2004-10-15 23:47
- Test Time: 01:00
- Gross Speed: 123 WPM
- Errors: 1
- Accuracy: 99%

- NET SPEED: 122 WPM

[Edaarin]

It's easy if you only type for a minute. For the first 10 seconds, I got as high as 212 WPM, and didn't drop below 140 until about 20 seconds in.

EDIT: Made the screenshot less crappy.

[Edited on 10-16-2004 by Edaarin]

[Edaarin]

Funny.

13 122 99% 123 01:00 2004-10-15 23:47 Huckleberry Finn

23:47 for GMT +2:00 would mean it was 4:47 p.m. East Coast, or about 8 hours before your post.

EDIT: Edited because I can't add or subtract right.

[Edited on 10-16-2004 by Edaarin]

[Drew2]

I just woke up like 10 minutes ago and I stomped all over most of you.

[Numbers]

I topped out at about 115 with no errors.

It probably would've been more, but I'm not used to talking like a redneck from the 19th fucking century.

[Edaarin]

He's not a redneck, he's a hick.

[kheldarin]

Most I got was 112. But seriously, I learned to type fast through Gemstone. That was when I didn't know/care about macros.

[Ilvane]

91 words per minute, with 98% accuracy. I did Strategic Alliances with Competitors.

[Xcalibur]

70/92%

Not bad.

[Chadj]

I am not even gonna click the link, but I memorized the first one.. The one on business alliances, and my record was 97 wpm 0 errors.

Generally, though, I get about 85 wpm.

[Latrinsorm]

101 WPM at 96% accuracy for one minute.
92 WPM at 94% accuracy for 3 on that retarded Tiger thing. Man that was stupid.
Finally, 96 at 95% for 3 on the Alliances. I'm awesome.

I don't like how it does it word by word, so if you, say, type "thousand s" instead of "thousands", every word after that becomes wrong, without any way to go back. But whatever.

[Wezas]

A more fun typing game:

Typer Shark (http://popcap.com/launchpage.php?theGame=typershark&src=gamestack)

[GSLeloo]

I've played that Wezas, it's kind of addicting

[Bobmuhthol]

Except it sucks.

It should have been edited because you're retarded. I'm not in GMT. I live in Indiana. Why don't you go look up the time zone? I knew some idiot would doubt my capabilitites. Here's my proof. Go compare it to the top 100, and sure enough, ::gasps::, you'll find me! Don't be jealous because I can out type you.

By the way, I think you should check your math again. Nice try, though.

I owned you.

That picture had the slowest loading time I have ever seen in my life.

[Latrinsorm]

I need to roll up a Jenovabane Imgtags.

[Edaarin]

GMT +2:00 is the time that appeared on the Top 100's site.

Indiana is GMT -5:00. Therefore, take 7 hours away from whatever time was shown on that website.

23:47 - 7:00 = 16:47, or 4:47 p.m.

I guess Indiana's med school program is pretty lax if you have all this free time to read the boards and play Gemstone, huh?

[Edaarin]

Now why would you edit out that part where you called me fat?

[Artha]

Here, JD. You suck at JPGs.

[OOC]-Jenovadeath: "Hey, Bob?"
[OOC]-Jenovadeath: "It's 12:13 right now. Does that make me GMT zone?"
[OOC]-You: "It makes you -6:00. Or Central time."

But Edaarin, I thought ALL Indiana residents were GMT? Fucking idiot.

[Edaarin]

Are you retarded? What do you think those + and - numbers mean? It's what your time is relative to GMT time, which is what that site records time in.

[SpunGirl]

This is hilarious. Please, carry on. Also, Tabor, the more you take the "Huck Finn" test, the better you are at it, I'm sure. Try pwning a test you haven't memorized.

[fallenSaint]

Tossing it up from work a few times while my customers babbled on I averaged out about 96wpm at 97% accuracy on the 3 minute tests.

And come to think of it I never bothered learning how to type at any decent speed til I started to play GS...

Too bad I still cant spell for shit.

I took a typing test a few weeks back for a temp agency, got like 90 words per minute with only 8 errors. They loved it.

Good job. When I used to play GS a ton before I left, I could do at least 100 WPM at at least 85% accuacy. I got up to 112 WPM one time with about 78%.

I'm alot slower now.

Heh, I type typing class before I left for GS. My personal best was 121 WPM, 80% accuracy. People thought I was just punching random keys.

Wow, nice accuracy. I had done 131 before at school in middle school. However, the accuracy was low. Probably 75%.

[Meos]

39 WPM, 92% accuracy, I am teh slow.

[Weedmage Princess]

I haven't taken a typing test in almost three years, when I first moved up to Mass. and went to a temp agency. I think I was like 96 WPM with 95% accuracy. I know prior to my playing Gemstone, I wasn't anywhere near that fast, and I play more now than I did at that time so I know I'm faster. It's definitely the reason for my improvements with typing. It's one good thing the addiction does offer, I suppose..heh.

[LordWarclaidhm]

I suck:

Did anybody else notice that, with each successive post (three in a row, no less!) Warclaidhm's speed increased by 10?


I got up to 112 WPM one time with about 78%.

I had done 131 before at school in middle school.
