This is a typing game that pits you against other random people in being the fastest to type out a given passage.
One of the things I like about this is that it records your progress and lets you know how your typing speed is changing over each race.
My all-time average speed is 103.91 WPM. Best is 122 WPM.
Let's see how you guys do :)

45 WPM. Sounds about right. The highest guy there has like 165 WPM! and I thought I could type fast :'(
Best was 99; average was 88, which I thought was pretty good, but for most of the races I wasn't even first. D:
My hands...what has this game done to my hands...:(
EDIT: Now it's 90 yay

Fast? Dude, that isn't enough to pass a keyboarding class, much less enough to get you an office job.
Anyway I was around 80-85 in this. I guess that's okay.
I'm averaging the high-60s, low-70s. What bothers me is the punctuation. My keyboard isn't that great, and I hate missin letters and having to hit the button harder. I don't know. The ame is pretty addicting, though, and I like how they show where the quote is from after the race.
Just did a quote that used space hyphen space instead of a proper emdash. I have my keyboard mapped for easy emdash access, and I got held up trying to figure out what exactly they were trying to do.

I varied quite a bit. Once in awhile I'd get to a snag and not realize what was wrong with my sentence and kill my time. Like I would type a period instead of a comma, or vice-versa.
83-85 avg. Best was 95 I think.

Yeah, yesterday I was able to hit 120 twice, but today I'm barely able to make 100's. One thing that I find helps is to stay calm and take it (relatively) slower so that you don't make any mistakes.
Also, if you screw up the word, sometimes it's quicker to remove it completely with "Ctrl-A" and just type it out again.
