how fast can you type

[Mando Pandango]

i just remembered http://play.typeracer.com/ existed and decided to play a few races. Just clocked one in at 128 which is a new record for me. If I concentrate, I can do a consistent 100 without too much effort.

how's about you, boyah? any SANIC FAST typists among us?

[Travis]

just maxed at 110 which is actually higher than i thought i'd be capable of now

[strongbad]

I love typeracer but damn it made me so mad a while ago
I had a PR on one race of like 106 (I just recently started typing with proper form) and it did the thing to prove that I wasn't a robot but my internet wasn't fast enough to load the thing but it ran the timer anyway so it didn't believe my time ;-;

I'd say I'm around 90wpm if I'm trying but I'd really like to improve more

[C.Mongler]

80 but i can probably do faster. I'm really bad at typing words off a screen, if i had it on a sheet of paper OR IN MY NOODLE i could do it better

[Daddy]

I'll have to try at home. This keyboard seems to ghost if I hit certain letters too quickly and ends up transposing things.

[C.Mongler]

yeah i also fucking hate my work keyboard, some cheap ass membrane shit. i'd have to try again on my comfy mechanical at home

34

[snoorkel]

i can 120+ but recently been falking off and nearly every word i type is wrong -- losing the feeling in my hands

[??????]

sometimes i can reach 80 because i never cared to type quickly or cared enough to type with proper finger positioning

[Thyme]

uh late 60s early 70s

>mfw my second practice quote was part of octavarium

[Samus Aran]

Scores: 110, 123, 107, 107, 117

averages out to 113

but i think it's just safer to say i can usually consistently clock around 110 and leave it at that

[Hiro]

55, 62, 56, 59, 68
average: 60
reading and typing at the same time isn't really the same imo
also I don't generally have my thoughts planned out far ahead enough for my speed to really matter much to me because I'm often stopping to think, or going back to fix mistakes anyways, oh and having my laptop plugged into a larger monitor but I don't have an external keyboard so I'm always facing away from my keyboard
but yeah like everything else I do I am slow as shit

[silvertone]

i am around the 80s.

[Samus Aran]

worth noting that if this included numbers i'd be a lot slower. while i have proper positioning for the primary three rows of keys, i pretty much refused to learn how to properly use the top number row when using home row positioning. mostly because my fingers are short.
