typing 26 letters in less than 2 seconds would be more than 100 wpm.....you basically teach your fingers a pattern after you do it for so long so you get faster....

i dont really see the difference, i can type over 100 wpm on a computer and the keyboard is the same setup as a typewriter...of course i can correct mistakes a bit ezier on here, but same concept...when you type that fast you dont really think about letters anways, actually i personally dont think at all, its just like talking...except i can actually type faster than i talk :eek:

Isn't that scary? I wish that they would remove the 30 second posting rule on here because I hate it when I blurb out one thought and have another coming right behind it...it stinks! I guess the reason we can type faster than we talk is because our brain doesn't get tangled up as much...except when your fingers get ahead of your thoughts. Is that possible?

haha i dunno...sometimes my hands get ahead of my brain, i guess that is where typos come from....i have probs w/ that 30 second thing too sometimes, but if they didnt have it we would have crazy people posting one word every 5 seconds...

it is fun, but i didnt get to do it yesterday, to get below 3 you have to take a break and come back and do it after you consistantly get below 3.5.....and then bam you get all the letters w/o screwing up and ur below 3....i went below 3 twice in a row and havent did it since, but i stopped trying after that and yesterday i was workin on no sleep, so i guess i'll try some today
