Hey check out TyperA, it has been there for a while but I dont know if the Ville has their own competitive groups fighting for domination with each other yet. Well, I made my own Ville group and I say we all head down over they and COMPETE with each other!

First go to this site http://typera.net/group.html Set your group as Ville and the password Ville
(Ville/Ville)
Then go to Front page
There is a Start game section on the front page; write down you name (Forum name so we know who you are) and select type of typing game and start!

Check out those highscores on our group! Yahoo!

I did it, but that thing annoys me... if you type one letter wrong, or miss a cap, the entire word is marked as wrong, even if it was only one character.

Thats funny Goldom...so is it better to spell a 3 letter word wrong or a 8 letter word wrong. You get more correct in a 8 letter word with only one letter missed as opposed to 1 in a 3 letter word.
I have never heard of a spelling or typing test that grades on percentage of each word complete.

Got 3rd, though I admittedly played it twice to get there :-p

Methinks it'd be better if it had more...realistic sentences, none of the text runs together.

Hmmm... I've been tested by a true typing teacher at the mid-60's per minute... but that was on sentences that made any sort of sense at all! It's actually hard to type total jibberish... unless you're a kilaak, then I guess it's easy!

3rd on the list... did it twice, I'll do it again later probably
