CatherineM Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 I have been known to hit 120, but prefer to keep it at 100 for accuracy sake. My dad could hit 150 on the typewriter, and 50 with a telegraph key. He honed his skill with bombs going off around him, so it's not a fair comparison.

Laudate_Dominum Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Turns out that I've typed quite a few words in the past minute, but if you average it out throughout the day I estimate that I type about one words per minute, rounding up to the closest positive integer.

I prefer my flamebait declarations to be a bit milder, in the form of a question, and referenced by making the question mark a link to the flamebait thread. My first impulse was to respond to your post with a flamebait declaration of my own. How should this exchange be classified? This is a fascinating scenario.

BG45 Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 (edited) 70, with 5 errors. So an adjusted speed of 65 on the evil astronaut one. Edit: Woot, 80 on Enchanted typewriter after errors. Edited June 13, 2010 by BG45 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hilde Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 I don't even wanna say. I've never even bothered to type fastly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnlySunshine Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 I type between 50-59 words per minute. Once when I took the typing test, it clocked me at 65! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nihil Obstat Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 I've peaked at over 160 before. I'm assuming that was like a five second block of something really easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Normile Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Real words huh? That would probably slow me down quite a bit. ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
