Sorry if this has been posted on here before, but it's quite amusing. I thought I was good when i got down to sub 5 seconds. Then my brother did it in 3... Title: Re: Fastest Fingers Post by: Graham C on August 21, 2007, 11:17:39 PM 9.53, it was a blur watching them move

Title: Re: Fastest Fingers Post by: Robert HM on August 22, 2007, 12:21:54 AM What's this - touch typing? I'm going to pwn So competitive! Title: Re: Fastest Fingers Post by: KingPoker on August 22, 2007, 12:23:13 AM 4.931 (its the VWXYZ thats slowing me down!) It's the ACBE that slows me down True towards the end of my attempts i was snagging my finger from [C] to [D] a lot! What's this - touch typing? I'm going to pwn So competitive! I dunno when she is gonna get those dishes done! Title: Re: Fastest Fingers Post by: Claw75 on August 22, 2007, 12:24:25 AM I give up. Can't get under 6 seconds.
Do you like anagrams KP? Here's one for you - FGY Title: Re: Fastest Fingers Post by: KingPoker on August 22, 2007, 12:30:51 AM I give up. Can't get under 6 seconds. Do you like anagrams KP?

Title: Re: Fastest Fingers Post by: Ecosse on August 22, 2007, 08:55:49 AM Not done this for years but when young I wrote a program to do the exact same thing. Myself and a coworker had constant battles for the 'fastest finger' champ. My long standing record is 1.76 seconds. Dougie. Title: Re: Fastest Fingers Post by: bolt pp on August 22, 2007, 08:58:50 AM i keep forgetting what comes after L but it takes me about 6 seconds up to that point so i predict if i knew the alphabet properly i'd get it in about 12 seconds but i lose about 6 seconds when i get to L and have to take my fingers off of the keyboard and count the alphabet on my fingers.

A close competitor in my current work can get 2.3 seconds quite easily. Why would I lie ? Dougie. edit : vb code for said program :- Dim TotalTime As Double Dim StartTime As Double Dim Counter As Long Const AlphaString = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ" Private Sub Text1_GotFocus() Text1 = "Start Typing" + vbCrLf Text1.SelStart = Len(Text1.Text) + 1 Counter = 0 End Sub Private Sub Text1_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer) Character = UCase$(Chr$(KeyAscii)) Counter = Counter + 1 If Counter = 1 And Character = "A" Then StartTime = Timer If Character <> Mid$(AlphaString, Counter, 1) Then KeyAscii = 0 Beep Counter = Counter - 1 Exit Sub End If Text1 = Text1 + Character Text1.SelStart = Len(Text1.Text) + 1 KeyAscii = 0 If Counter = 26 Then TotalTime = Timer - StartTime Text1 = Text1 + vbCrLf + vbCrLf + "You Took " + Trim$(Str$(TotalTime)) + " Seconds" + vbCrLf + vbCrLf Text1.SelStart = Len(Text1.Text) + 1 Counter = 0 End If End Sub Title: Re: Fastest Fingers Post by: KingPoker on August 22, 2007, 09:27:06 AM Being serious, I've been programming for 21 years and can type like hell.

After about a dozen tries, still a bit early in the morning :- Title: Re: Fastest Fingers Post by: matt674 on August 22, 2007, 01:38:35 PM Wow, do you all suck or what?
Here's my effort, given half a chance i could probably beat it again but i'm in work now so just had a quick go during lunch.

I'd got it down to 14 seconds, now you're just confusing me Title: Re: Fastest Fingers Post by: Claw75 on August 22, 2007, 02:57:06 PM the world record is apparently 1.152 seconds
Title: Re: Fastest Fingers Post by: NoflopsHomer on August 22, 2007, 03:09:28 PM I think if you want to get a really fast score, just keep going through it starting slowly and gradually increasing your speed.
Title: Re: Fastest Fingers Post by: matt674 on August 22, 2007, 03:09:45 PM the world record is apparently 1.152 seconds £20 says it was done on an alphabetic keyboard.......... Title: Re: Fastest Fingers Post by: AndrewT on August 22, 2007, 03:21:08 PM the world record is apparently 1.152 seconds £20 says it was done on an alphabetic keyboard.......... Or they remapped their keyboard. Title: Re: Fastest Fingers Post by: kinboshi on August 22, 2007, 03:51:22 PM The quickest time is 1.00001 seconds (not sure on the number of decimal places). That's the minimum the game allows, and I guess some have mapped the code and used a script to mimic the key entry.
Sort of ruins the fun though. Title: Re: Fastest Fingers Post by: bolt pp on August 22, 2007, 03:56:18 PM The quickest time is 1.00001 seconds (not sure on the number of decimal places).
