@freemo out of curiosity, and for an apples-to-apples comparison since I don't have a self-monitoring keyboard like that: could you let me know what sort of numbers you get on typeracer? I'm usually in the mid-eighties, and I don't think I've ever seen someone hit >120 in one of my races. So I'm curious whether it's down to difference in measurement methodology or your speeds are actually that far ahead of anyone else I've seen.
@freemo yeah I'm not a huge fan of the error-catching process either. But it's at least measuring the same way across the board, whether that's by tokenizing words or a quarter of the letter rate or whatever. It's easier to interpret a number where I have that context than one like your keyboard's self-measurement where I don't.
I just did five and got 88, 76, 88, 80, 93. Your 127 would have been first in any of those races.
@khird By the way I wrote the firmware to the keyboard myself (well modified existing code) ... So for wahtever it is worth the method that calculated WPM is fairly close to the official as far as I can tell (there is a specific number of characters a backspace is suppose to count as).
@khird I only got aas low as 85 in one trial, one of the first ones.. and it was largely cause im still getting used to my keyboards alignment in that case... took a few tries to get my home row down due to the new positioning.
