― Abbadavid Berman (Hurting), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 04:22 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's Gettysburg.

― Abbadavid Berman (Hurting), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 04:22 (nineteen years ago)

yeh def. gettysburg. needs to be more random to be a better test. but thanks, gbx!

― hstencil (hstencil), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 04:25 (nineteen years ago)

i bet if i clipped my fingernails i could do better.

― gbx (skowly), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 04:26 (nineteen years ago)

I tested myself a few times and generally wound up with about 90 with two or three errors.

― polyphonic (polyphonic), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 04:43 (nineteen years ago)

137.97 w/ 3 mistakes.

― Andrew (enneff), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 04:45 (nineteen years ago)

That was my second try. My first try I didn't make any mistakes but I couldn't see the answer because I accidentally hit space when the message box appeared.

― Andrew (enneff), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 04:47 (nineteen years ago)

103wpm, 4 errors
106wpm, 2 errors

I typed a space after a few perfect and faster takes which meant the pop-up disappeared before I could read it, grr! Why would space register as "OK"?

― Casuistry (Chris P), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 04:51 (nineteen years ago)

xpost!

― Casuistry (Chris P), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 04:51 (nineteen years ago)

Also this seems like too short a sample -- my actual speed is more like 80wpm (with lots of errors).

― Casuistry (Chris P), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 04:52 (nineteen years ago)

God knows how inhumanly fast we would be without that cursed space bar issue!

― Andrew (enneff), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 04:52 (nineteen years ago)

95ish with 2 mistakes, but I dont touch type properly, so I make mistakes a lot.

― Trayce (trayce), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 04:57 (nineteen years ago)

87 no mistakes. I don't like the mental only one space after the full stop thing though.

― miele kitty (miele), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 05:03 (nineteen years ago)

Typewriters are, like, so last century. Get over it.

― Andrew (enneff), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 05:08 (nineteen years ago)

ILX types well.

So would the board be better or worse off if it were less so?

― Abbadavid Berman (Hurting), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 05:08 (nineteen years ago)

115.7 (1 mistake)

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 16:18 (nineteen years ago)

I think it's wrong to call them "mistakes", I say it's creative typing - thinking outside the box, not just doing what the man tells ya to do.

― jel -- (jel), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 16:18 (nineteen years ago)

I keep putting two spaces after periods because that's what I was taught to do. :c

― Jessie the Monster (scarymonsterrr), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 16:29 (nineteen years ago)

yeah i wasn't aware that only 1 space is required until last year.
i took typing back in middle school. on typewriters. white out tape yeah!!

― tehresa, who will here remain anonymous (tehresa), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 16:33 (nineteen years ago)

I never typed school work 'til I was 19.

― jel -- (jel), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 16:37 (nineteen years ago)

I blame my "ergonomic" keyboard.

I WILL NEVER REVERT TO YOUR PAGAN ONE SPACES.

We had to take a test on word processing, databases, etc. to pass 8th grade when I was in middle school. On DOS. In the late 90s.

― Jessie the Monster (scarymonsterrr), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 17:32 (nineteen years ago)

PAGAN ONE SPACES? THIS AGAIN? Two spaces after a period is heretical. One space, typography as if set by angels.

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 18:12 (nineteen years ago)

TWO SPACES IS CIVILIZED, YOU HEATHEN SAVAGE. I will die a pauper before I accept your barbarism! Avast ye!

― Jessie the Monster (scarymonsterrr), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 18:32 (nineteen years ago)

116 with no mistakes, on my lap. Madchen got 101 with one mistake on her lap.

― stet (stet), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 18:47 (nineteen years ago)

116 with no mistakes here too. the sample is too small for real testing and there are other problems with it too, as these things go.

― Sterling Clover (s_clover), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 18:51 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, I got over 100 each time I tried. This seems a bit wack, as my average proper timed-over-three-minutes test like you do at temping agencies is in the region of about 70.

― ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 18:59 (nineteen years ago)

'Twas an avid typest gbx
Who typed fast regardless of text
He threw down his glove
Said, "Type away, love -
My skills will leave you hot and vexed."

― Fluffy Bear, Perpetual 12-Year-Old (Fluffy Bear Hearts Rainbows), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 19:05 (nineteen years ago)

scott seward stole my answer

― gear (gear), Wednesday, 12 July 2006 19:09 (nineteen years ago)

There is nothing civilized about two spaces after a period, unless you're typing on an old manual typewriter:
