Gah! I am stuck at 69 wpm with 2 errors. I want to get to 70 wpm as it is my goal. So close and yet so far! I was 35 apm 2 months ago.

It is bothering me so much that I can't get 70. I probably got 67- 69 twelve times by now.

^^Whoa, congrats. Put that on your resume or something, haha.

78 WPM here (85-7) for errors.

It's not that great, but there are two things to consider.
1. I never learned how to type properly, despite owning one of those games that's supposed to teach you how. I'm a touch typist. I use my index fingers to type, and my ring finger to hit the shift key for caps. I guess I've gotten to a pretty decent speed because I've been doing it so long.

I'm on my old laptop. I had to send in my new one for repairs, so I'm on this old one. It's a little larger, and has those old-fashioned beys (mechanical?), while my new one has nice little chiclet ones (or whatever they're called). My damn shift key is a little off.

I always have a hard time typing copied text. I do best when it's my own words. Only 39 right now.

I got 143 wpm with 100% accuracy.

Mildly disappointing, I used to be able to go up to about 160...

You might be slowing yourself down by taking time to finish a word before acknowledging the next. I perform better on the tests when I read a word, begin to type, and then read the next word while typing the current. This leads itself to a more free flowing feel. That or even reading an entire sentence then reciting it as your own words.

I scored a range of 65-100 taking all the different test types. Errors ranging from 0-5.

126 WPM with 9 errors (92% accurate). I can live with that.

What tronix said is key. Learning to read slightly ahead of your typing will definitely boost your speed.

125 WPM.
134 WPM - 9 Errors.

I was able to consistantly hit 130-132 a year or so ago, but I've done less typing and more making roaches since I've started playing SC2 and graduated from High School and started college. Although I gotta tell you, when I took my writing I and writing II class, and I"d wait to do a 7 page paper the day it's due, I'm sure my WPM was way way up there, lol.

EDIT - Will update with proof as soon as I feel like doing it again

EDITEDIT - Here's Proof. Wanted to hit 130, oh well.

these tests are biased, in english you type 20% faster (avg word ~5) than in german (avg word ~6).
furthermore english has less "weird" letters, so its harder to type in languages where you have öäü or éà and stuff like that.

The test linked in the OP is really stupid, punctuation is a total pain in the ass. 110WPM 100% accuracy anyway, but goddamn.

200APM if I'm practicing regularly, as low as 120APM if I'm rusty.

Why do people keep complaining about the punctuation? It's part of typing. The test isn't to see how fast you can txt lk dis 2 ur frndz. >.> Nice score, btw. Quite good.

Yeah, I think it's a little off too. I have a friend who's a secretary and types at something like 130 and complains that she thinks she's too slow compared to other people.

I on the other hand type at a comfortable 70 words per minute. Go me!
this is my quote.
