Just out of interest, how fast do you all type?

I got 92 wpm on first attempt (571 characters)

Lets stick with first attempts - then perhaps more realistic

Aleeve, you are a real speed typist. I was # 9336 of 9994 which was 14 wpm and 67 characters. No wonder I need all day for 3 postings. LOL

Well, it's nothing bad whs :)

You've obviously logged A LOT more time on HTG than myself, seeing as your post count is over 3 times more than mine!

You are probably right - especially at the speed I am going.

Hatryst, don't worry. You are nearly twice as fast as I am. Geek power is not in the fingers. LOL

Seems a lot of people have been trying this <LOL>.
When Whs tried it there were 9994 attempts, 42694 by the time I finally succumbed <LOL>.

Edit: Hmmm Jordan, your screenshot is far more modest than mine ...

Second edit: resized it - that's better <LOL>.

65 wpm 418 char, 9 wrong. When I'm typing into Word, I just spell check it and simply add autocorrect entries for my typos. Eventually I'll have got through every combination that I can get wrong.
