I mean...the WORLD'S FASTEST typist has only 150WPM (who's listed in the Guinness Book of World Records). http://sominfo.syr.edu/facstaff/dvorak/blackburn.html Especially the guy who claims he has 180 WPM... | ||

I'm usually ~65 and I thought that was pretty fast, although I know people who're ~80-90. You guys are seemingly crazy. When I watch first person vods im always impressed by how fast gamers type | ||

No real reason for computer keyboards except the fact that it was the standard among writers before computers.it all depends on a test. After typing teamliquid so many times it's almost instinctive for me. If you test yourself on a text with many familiar words and little punctuation and capitals, it's easier. If you test yourself on a test you've seen before it's even easier. Dvorak layout of the keyboard is considered faster because unlike qwerty, in dvorak the most used keys are placed in the most convenient locations. I'm not sure what principle qwerty utilizes.

Somehow I thought myself to type with only 8 fingers instead of ten, I don't use my left pinky and my right I only use for ' and ENTER :[ Just took that test from typingtest.com, got ~90, 2nd try because in the first one I kept missing the comma's  Took another text for 2nd try btw.When typing your usual MSN bullshit chit chat I probably get in the 120's, but not with teh real shite interpunction texts :O | ||

EDIT: Nope, it wasn't because of the way it was written. I just suck at typing, I guess. 61 on the first test text as well. It's because I have to think about some words before I type them; I really have to look at how they are spelled. | ||

As for all of you saying you got 230 wpm and stuff...you're looking at the wrong numbers, those are probably your characters per minute. | ||

I'm sure I type faster than that now. As for all of you saying you got 230 wpm and stuff...you're looking at the wrong numbers, those are probably your characters per minute. Liar, that'd be child labor. You could type that fast, I don't doubt that; I just doubt your school offered two 13 year olds jobs, because it'd be illegal. At least in my state it would be. | ||

(though i don't doubt some people are exaggerating their scores). personally i'm around 90-105. Maintaining your typing speed over a long period of time is a true measure of your typing speed (WPM). | ||

EDIT: Btw, i think many of you are full of shit. My mom is a full time secretary and its amazing to watch her type. She averaged 75-85 over 3 times. I simply cannot conceed that you guys are 100+ with less typing practice than someone who does it for a living. | ||

On Lt <---- 140-160 Vs Gosus <---- 160-180 It varies by how hard I try. When I play gosu my APM shoots up because I'm more alerted and always checking in between battles and production facilities. Vs Noobs just micro until you win -.- | ||
