Typing game

Na, I try and correct words. I don't think I make that many mistakes in the first place though, but I do try and correct if I can. Sometimes I've already hit space so I can't go back though.

But yea, it can really mess up your flow. I tried to do one where I didn't correct, but I just wasn't able to! It's really hard not to do something that you're so used to doing.
 
This one isn't very good - it doesn't use both cases or letter, nor any punctuation.

My first try, anyway:

Haha, I'm not even kidding, I actually got a job on the strength of my touch-typing speed once! It was a really easy data-entry type job but for some reason paid about £2 more an hour than that type of office-lackey work elsewhere. About 80 people turned up for the first-day training session - they could only employ 2. I was one of them :p

Gotta plug mechanical keyboards here as well... my Zowie Celeritas is like a typing Renaissance.

First attempt will try again later. I can usually get 120-130 on these with a bit of warming up ;).

Lots of fast touch typists amongst our generation these days who haven't had any training, courtesy of a childhood of MSN.

I got a job pretty much based on my typing speed as well a few years ago, good times!
 



:( I never learned to touch type, its more of a failure typing method that i've gotten used to and sped up with slightly... didn't see anywhere showing detailed information, but i spent at least 10 seconds correcting errors in my spelling XD

EDIT: I'm sure myself and others would type faster given a paragraph that actually flowed rather than disjointed words :D

Ahleckz and Roman are you touch typers?!

I got about 60-odd, although I spilt water on my silky Logitech Illuminated Keyboard yesterday so I'm currently using my horrible old Saitek Eclipse for a bit. It's like typing on bloody mosaic.

Yes, but not properly. I just spend a lot of time on computers, never had any training.
 
97 wpm, 4 mistakes. Can only use 2 fingers on each hand, really need to learn how to type properly then I could maybe break 100 without making gibberish along the way :p
