Default Mustangworks Typing Tournament

This sites pretty cool

When you go to the link, put in "mustangworks" as the group and "mustang" as the keyword.

http://typera.net/group.html

Go there, then click on "front page," then scroll down a bit, and put in your name, then click on "start game."

my high score is 497 (with a different group), which figures out to be 99wpm (kpm/5)

Go here for the high score for our group - http://typera.net/hiscore.cgi?g850

I'll try to see if I can break into the 500s

I agree. I'd probably do alot better if it weren't for the stupid sentences they use.

Woohooo! I'm 2nd place, and I only use two fingers on each hand to type. I got 203 kpm. LOL I would love to learn how to type without looking at the keyboars, I'm always amazed with people that can do this!

Sorry guys, and gals, I think I actually hurt our record. I got a whopping 19 wpm. The sad thing is, I type every day at work and have for the last 2 years. I guess I shouldn't be bragging about this.

Cool link. I tried about three times and in second place for now. I used to type everyday for three or so years, but have been out of that for almost two years now, so I've slowed down some. I agree, those sentences are really stupid.

I'll keep trying some more!
