Of course, I am unable to type anything without a text to type, so my score stays at 0 wpm. Meanwhile, everybody else apparently sees the text and races ahead.

So that's why I dropped out. Sorry. Sorry for not posting this before, but keyboard lag just transformed my “I would never actually” into “IDDVER”. So that’s why I dropped out. Sorry.

For example, my keyboard acts up horribly sometimes, running words together and failing to register keystrokes. This creates typos, drags my accuracy down and causes my speed to fall from about 120 wpm to under 100 wpm, hence my average speed of 114 wpm. Such races do not reflect my usual speed at all, so it would be good if I could delete them. Also, is there a way to account for American and British spelling differences?

I LOVE the accuracy percentage you've added. Maybe (and I'm sure you're already considering it, I just want to voice a public opinion) you could add an accuracy leader board. Only problem is that it would be too easy to get 100%, but I think you should consider only listing those with >50 races and also list them in categories such as members with WPM 0-50, 50-75 75-100 100-125, ect. Again, sorry to spam, it's not my intent. Sorry to spam up your board :S I just had one

I fully agree you should have some sort of conciquence for the "cheaters" who leave races to find easy ones (even though I am one of the guilty parties), but you should also then consider getting rid of those redicilous races that I get 75-85 wpm on (when I average 135) and everyone else with high WPM's get redicilously low scores. My other request, is when you're doing the anti-cheat and you get 100% and you score a higher WPM than you did on the actual race, that score should be counted as your race WPM. Love the site, thanks for bringing it! Ben I have two requests.
