I always thought those tests are mediocre since I'm not a copier, I type out what I think about. The quicker I can form my sentences and type them out, the faster of a typer I am imo.

good luck beating this lol

I've never used this site and have to shit, but I guess I did alright.

Found the ffmpeg man-page writer.

Just got home from a 10 hour day at the lumber mill. Eat shit faggots. (no offense I realize this is a blue board, I actually respect faggots it's just a figure of speech nigger).

>>106098897
Me again. Didn't catch it at first that there are different modes. Here's quote mode. It was easier.

>>106098197
Yeah I'm the same. I can type my own thoughts significantly faster than copying.
Maybe someone could make a typing speed test for us that allows you to type your thoughts and then it ensures that you aren't just typing nonsense. And then add a scoring system so that you can't game the test by only typing short words.

I used to think this but I realized later that it's cope because it's easier than actually thinking. You are quite literally just measuring your round-trip time from your eyes to your muscles.

you could brag about anything and you chose to brag about fingering speed.

Yes, that's my point. It doesn't have any real world benefits unless you're a medieval scribe with a laptop

50 wpm on first try

I used to get these speeds with just two fingers. Then I learned touch typing, and now I get these speeds using 10 fingers. I have improved almost 5 times.

I'm curious: do you walk slowly? I type fast and walk fast.

>>106103814
I prefer to drive.

>>106103862
Are you one of those people who drive 45mph on a 55mph highway in clear conditions with no traffic except the 100 car line behind you that you never seem to notice?

>>106098112 (OP)
Best I got was 82wpm on time trial mode. If I limit it to 10 words I get 120wpm.

>>106103888
Nope. I am that person whose only A in high school was driver's ed. I had a CDL and went down the Pocanoes weighing 40tons at 100mph in 5 inches of snow. I have had to take defensive driving courses to reduce my points on 3 occasions. I am like Mario Andretti but in a Ford Escort LX. I can drive for 48 hours straight only stopping for fuel. I put down 500,000 miles in 2 years. I am that person that will drive 55mph in a 55mph zone and then slam on the brakes if you tailgate me.

>>106098112 (OP)
241 WPM PR on 10 words, but on longer tests (30s+) I can't even break 180

It is basically an upper limit on how quickly you can output content, since it's a given that thinking is slower than reading with your eyes

>>106102388
Thoughts on my wpm?

103 wpm
99% accuracy

I learned to type playing quake and everquest between deaths and casts so I still type like an idiot, 4 fingers on my left hand and 3 on my right. I always feel like I should probably learn to type properly but it feels ergonomically wrong and strains my wrist when I do, so I fall back into typing like an idiot.

>>106107178
Well, we share a consistency metric. You seemed to have sacrificed accuracy for speed.

>>106107598
it's crazy how much changing positions and posture helps.

>>106107894
It is like you farted and the stomach pain went away. Very nice.

First try

>>106098897
>time 30
My record is 184 NOOB

108 WPM w/ mistakes.

>>106098112 (OP)
ouch

80 WPM, not bad, have not checked in awhile. Need to get up to 120 though.

You retards can just set a stopwatch for 1 min and type what you're thinking in the text field on 4chan.
Regardless, you're slow.

Save for spacebar, I type with 2 fingers almost the entire time. I did try learning the "proper way" using each finger for specific columns and whatnot but typing like that just hurts, makes me believe that's how people develop carpal tunnel and get calluses on their wrists.

ive started binding my hands together to force my wrists to stay still while i use only the correct fingers in their proper positions.
thoughts?

>>106110971
i fucking love smoking a fat weed joint and typing only using the correct fingers. my ring and pinky fingers get a workout and it feels really good

why do all of you type so fucking slow

>>106111111
bravexisters... not like this

>>106098112 (OP)
Throughout my entire life I have been typing fully with my left hand and like two-three fingers from my right hand, getting on average 65 wpm.

>>106110520
If typing "the right way" hurts then you are probably doing it wrong.
>makes me believe that's how people develop carpal tunnel and get calluses on their wrists
>calluses on their wrists
This makes me think you were resting your wrists on the table while typing which is not a good idea.
Resting your wrists on the table or even on a wrist rest while typing IS how you get carpal tunnel and all kinds of aches and pains.
The "proper" way to do it is with a floating wrist kind of how you would play the piano.
Or you know, you could just type with 2 fingers for the rest of your life.
I don't really think it matters as long as you aren't too slow or getting pain from it.
Honestly I think 80wpm with 97% accuracy is good enough to get by. Even 60wpm with good accuracy is kinda OK.
