Q: Hey, player X is cheating! It's not possible to type over 300/400/500/600/700/800 keys per minute. A: Everything is relative. In the first year some people were convinced I (T.S.) was cheating with my super result 410 cpm (now I've improved to > 600). It's technically possible to cheat, given enough dedication. We're trying to make that more difficult while still keeping the test reasonably "playable". For top results, all keypresses and their timestamps (millisecond accuracy) are recorded for later reviewing. Cheaters are banned on sight. The Guinness World Record is 212 words per minute, well over 1000 cpm. |
