[emamum]

[emzy]

Ooooh 60 wpm with 2 crying toddlers, not bad me thinks

 

[danny27]

Damn, i got 58 lol. I think its only measuring in short bursts though, i originally did a longer piece which is probably why more score is different lol

 

[Loz]

Shocking!
Only 31 WPM!
And i made something like 19 mistakes!
Need to practice methinks!!

Who cares? So long as what you type makes sense.

Think Danny needs to do another test, got the title of this thread wrong, surely it should have been Minutes per word - well it is in my case

 

[shakermaker]

It's not words per minute anyway, it's word units per minute. A unit is five typing strokes.

I only got 56 wpm. No mistakes though. Was too busy reading what I was writing methinks!

 

[jaysay]

Well I can do 70 WPM, but then I have to go back and correct all the spelling mistakes missed letters a crap grammer, that takes about 30 minutes

I have two numb fingers so there should be a handicap system in place

 

[Eric]

if i do 3 or 4 i think i'm doin ok.

He's talking words per minute here, not pints per hour
