Anyone else have this weird left hand dominance while typing? Would I be faster if I learned proper hand positioning on the keyboard?
EDIT - Right handed

Well apparently 120 WPM, now that I've checked out that website. | ||

Could be due to hotkeying in starcraft. | ||

I type about 150wpm? It doesn't really matter, if I concentrate on using "correct" hand placement I still do around the same. (maybe ~7-8wpm slower due to hesitations). | ||

As for shift, I think shift really sucks. It is the biggest slowdown. In my own tests it is actually slower to hold shift then hit a key than to just hit two keys, which means sticky keys would be better if we were used to it. As for spacebar, I think most typists use the same thumb for space all the time. The thumb is one of the more under-used fingers on the traditional keyboard. I like how in SC, players press things like B with their thumb. Loves. | ||

Just ran through that test once, I rather like this format giving you the whole paragraph to type. Intsead of the other ones i've done where they give like 7 words at a time. anyways, I've been up all night, its past 6:30 AM, and I'm using my laptop keyboard not my mechanical keyboard (I type much fatser with it) and I hit 118 WPM here, like I said its about 6:35 AM and I'm lying on my stomach on my bed with my laptop lol. Maybe uh....75 degrees F in my room? 100% accuracy. right handed, right thumb is almost always the one that hits space bar for some reason (only reason i notice this is because my spacebar is always very worn on the right thumbs spot and not the left) | ||

90 wpm with 98% accuracy at 3:30 AM and and 44 deg F.. I don't know how that stacks up against you tl.net gods of everything but all I know is, I owned in third grade typing class and I own in Tassadar Teaches Typing The only thing that's non-standard for me is capitalization. I'm not sure exactly when I choose one over the other, but sometimes I use the alternate shift and sometimes I turn on Caps Lock, type the one key, and turn off Caps Lock. I think that really limits my control in Starcraft, though, since my fingers are always in position for typing and not using hotkeys.. although I'm getting a little better. | ||

Also dang KyuuKyuu you're pretty fast :O I keep hovering around 135-145 but breaking 150 is pretty not-often for me. Oh yeah right-handed for major things but left-handed in mannerisms. | ||

I got a few 100+ on some of the easier ones though. I like how if you get above 100 you have to take a test to make sure you aren't a bot lol | ||

I'm "certified" now though so it's ok. I type so much slower when reading random crap (especially with weird punctuation and capitalization) than when I'm just typing stream of consciousness :p | ||
