juanchan Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Did you copy/paste the wrong text by any chance? Nope - it seems to add a comma after every word if you copy and paste Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonyP Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Rubbish! 26 with three mistakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt H Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 60wpm dead on with 13 mistakes (but thats what spell checker is for ) Your speed was: 60wpm. You made 13 mistakes, your mistakes are shown in bold text: this is the story of what a womans patience can endure, and whats a mans resolution can achieve. if the machinery of the law could be depended on to fathom every case of suspocion, and to conduct every process of inquiry, with moderate assistance only froim the lubricating influences of oil and gold, the events which fill these pages might have claimed their shar of the public attention in a court of justice. but the law is still, in certain inevitable cases, the pre-engaged servant of the long purse; and the story is left to be told, for the first time, in this place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbourner Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 53. My one mistake was a time, I put 12:26 and it wanted 12.26!! How unfair!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caseys Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 101 WPM with 3 mistakes At school there was a typing game - you were a racing car and the faster you typed the faster the car went, I think that really helped me learn how to type. Anyone fancy getting one of these? http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2007/11/21/wolfking_warrior_xxtreme/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShamelessTT Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Its scuppered, if you copy that stuff @ the top i got like 44wpm. If i write my own BS i got 75 wpm. It all depends on what you type and if you know what your typing and how to spell everything...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackie Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 i had 8 mistakes, i can type alot quicker if i dont have to read what i'm typing and it just comes from my head. EDIT: what he said above Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tepster Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Bah! Too difficult. My large chest and Moob's prevent me from putting my arms parallel to my rib cage,therefore i cant assume the typing position properly.(left hand on a,s,d etc) Think Ill stick to the "hunt and peck" technique Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 I actually taught myself and now can't type anything unless my middle fingers are on the dashed keys ('F' and 'J'). I'm still quicker than the missus and she's a secretary!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Thats really wierd. I've never known anyone to type with their middle finger in that starting position. I'm an asdf guy but not strictly. My fingers tend to wander around a bit depending on the keyboard and whats most comfortable. Oh, i just got 106 btw. Who got over 110?
