77 first time. I cede the field to Pumpy.

Lorena · 05-21-2008, 01:30 PM

Megaracer, 75wpm

Lorena · 05-21-2008, 01:33 PM

I'll go in there if others will to

Pumpy Tudors · 05-21-2008, 01:39 PM

Nope, I'm done. I broke it last time. I ain't breakin' it again.

Lorena · 05-21-2008, 01:42 PM

jeez, this is highly addicting... i need to get some work done.

JeeberD · 05-21-2008, 04:14 PM

Damn, I thought I was a decent typist but I'm averaging a mere 55 wpm...

JeeberD · 05-21-2008, 04:18 PM

Dola-

Just won my first race at 68wpm, though.

Huckleberry · 05-21-2008, 04:20 PM

Average in the low-to-mid 90s. I think every race I've run has been in the 90s.

Passacaglia · 05-21-2008, 04:21 PM

First place, 54 wpm. But that's with my 'e' and 't' keys not on the keyboard. I wonder what kind of handicap that is.

Huckleberry · 05-21-2008, 04:22 PM

And right after I say that I bust out a 107.

JeeberD · 05-21-2008, 04:28 PM

hoopsguy just smoked me. I HATE typing that Clockwork Orange quote...

hoopsguy · 05-21-2008, 04:31 PM

Huck just got me in back-to-back races, posting a cool 105 the second time.

Cringer · 05-21-2008, 05:09 PM

I have won 3 of 5 races and am typing in the 50's. The competition must have been much stronger earlier today.

My last race I won, but I thought I blew it because I forgot where the '!' was.

CamEdwards · 05-21-2008, 05:23 PM

I'm averaging about 80 wpm, but Pumpy's giving me some performance anxiety.

Alan T · 05-21-2008, 05:24 PM

I think hoopsguy intimidated me. i just had my two worst races ever vs him.

hoopsguy · 05-21-2008, 05:25 PM

Wow, 5th place at 90 wpm. Guess I found the deep end of the pool.

You can hover over someone's little car and it tells you their average and last race! For me it is 93wpm average, last race 96!

Lorena · 05-21-2008, 05:31 PM

160?! wtf

I know, just having some fun with you.

89 wpm, 87 races. I've sunk too much time into this today, but I want to push it up to 90.

Lorena · 05-21-2008, 05:35 PM

booya, 92!!

I only have 22 races under my belt.. THey need more ranks though.. everyone is a megaracer!

Lorena · 05-21-2008, 05:36 PM

dammit i got nervous when i saw pumpy. 79 good enough for 3rd place

Alan T · 05-21-2008, 05:40 PM

Many more races vs Hoopsguy and I'll fall below 90wpm

hoopsguy · 05-21-2008, 05:49 PM

I'm the cooler of TypeRacer. Although it appears that Pumpy is immune.

hoopsguy · 05-21-2008, 05:52 PM

Weird - on my 98th attempt I finally typed fast enough (116) to get a typing test pushed at me to validate that I can actually type that fast. Took two tries to "prove" that I could type that fast.

Pumpy, and others, I assume this is something that you've seen earlier?

I haven't seen one yet, but the fastest I have typed is 107 in a race.

Alan T · 05-21-2008, 05:56 PM

Nevermind that.. just got 118wpm and got the typing test. It says it does it if you pass 110wpm.. but I can't hardly read this thing.. I keep missing punctuation.. this is annoying!

Yeah, if you top 110 wpm, you need to "prove it." I had to do it when I hit around 135, and then I had to prove it again when I hit 160.

Alan T · 05-21-2008, 05:57 PM

Oh hey, we just made the top score lists! (at least till pumpy shows up again)

Alan T · 05-21-2008, 06:04 PM

Woo 124wpm on a casino quote. On that note think my fingers need a break lol

samifan24 · 05-21-2008, 06:27 PM

Damn Pumpy holds the #1, #7 and #14 spots in the top 20.

Lorena · 05-21-2008, 06:28 PM

jeez pumpy, are you typing up a transcript of The Cat in the Hat? Those numbers are insane.

Lorena · 05-21-2008, 06:31 PM

so how do i create an acct?

Raiders Army · 05-21-2008, 06:32 PM

74

78

Lorena · 05-21-2008, 06:35 PM

89.. yes

Vince · 05-21-2008, 06:47 PM

Averaging around 90 WPM. I think I used to be faster...punctuation that isn't commas or periods kick my ass nowadays.

Vince · 05-21-2008, 06:49 PM

I'm hackman on there, by the way.

They don't have accounts per say it seems.. The way I did it just now was click on their link at the bottom to go to myspace and add it as a myspace app.. Then it uses that to record my scores.

Even though I seem to not have the ability to connect my previous averages with mine from myspace.

Vince · 05-21-2008, 07:24 PM

108 got me on the high score list for about 30 seconds...then back down again. I am VERY good at capitalizing the second letter of the word, and then having to delete like the next three words because I just continued. That's what's killing me. I'd probably average around 110 if I could get rid of stupid typos like that.
