I would've put this up a couple of days ago but the site was down :(

Because we're the type that can turn anything into a competition, here goes an attempt at competing on words per minute typed! http://typera.tk is the site we're using, so the tests are standardised.

The Leaderboard:
1. GerbilSoft - 118
2. Psymar - 99
3. CF - 95
4. Sprint - 90
5. Zeph - 86
6. F-Man - 84
7. egg - 82
8. Auriman - 75
9. mike89 - 74
10. Crowbar - 73
11. Taco - 69
12. Stefan - 68
13. D1AOS - 65
14. Quartz - 60
15. Sondow - 51
16. Max Firestorm - 50
17. FoxLuc - 40
17. Judgement - 40
19. ChaoRC - 38
20. Jawzun - 31

(Finally updated. I think it's correct... ~ PK)

Don't sweat it! 60 means you can type one word every second.

That's super fast.

This MacBook Pro keyboard often annoys me by not responding on some keys like A. E is normally alright though. Inidan is just silly. I think its just that my previous typing style didn't suit the keyboard, and I'm much more used to it now.
