That game is horribly inaccurate. I downloaded it just now and on my first run it said I typed 185 words per minute average. That is over three words per second and I was typing nowhere close to that. More like 30 WPM while on a real keyboard I max out at 160 WPM with an average of 142.

Oh no!

Still, that means I would be even more likely to pay for a spelling / typing game that had more accurate speed tests. I'm not particularly keen on the weapons theme, so some cutesy forrest animals throwing snowballs might work.

How the duck can an application miscalculate something as basic as how WPM one gets?!
