New Info

 

****IMPORTANT CHANGE PLEASE READ ****

 

The way this event will be ran is being changed, so read carefully. When Reed and I were testing to see how many people could fit in one private session, we couldn't find a limit. We are going to have one person host one GIANT session (me), that everyone will join. If you win a race you gain one point. We will be doing a total of 15 races, each race that you win means one point for yourself, thus giving us 1st-5th after 15 races.

 

In the event that we somehow fill up a lobby, we will split the players into 2 different lobbies (RANDOMLY), and do the same 15 races. Points and scoring will remain the same, and everyone will be scored together.

 

If you don't understand what I just typed just find me in teamspeak and I can explain it to you, or you can just wing it at the event.

 

Thanks!

 

UPDATE #2

After some thought, I'm going to change the point scoring system. To prevent one person from winning every single race, different places will get different points. 1st place will get 3 points/race, 2nd place will get 2 points/race, and 3rd place will get 1 point/race.

my typing speed was at around 110 when I used to play this game, cause I used to practice a lot as well, now it may be anywhere between 60-80, It would have been good to have RSVP for this event, also I'm not sure if there's a set way we can prevent cheating because being a 3rd party host, there's no valid way to check. Other than that, I hope I don't forget about this and hopefully it will be fun! :)

I'm gonna be recording and if people think a certain person is cheating, I will watch it over and watch them. The way you can tell is if they start wayyyy behind everyone else then just finish in under a second.

so, I played a couple games of typeracer to see what i could do, some games my speed is around 120, and in others around 65, which is almost double the difference, anyone know why?

btw I am really excited for this event. :D

I realized why my speed is fluctuating a lot and bad, cause I have horrible and improper "form" like i only use a few fingers and not the right technique, I looked it up and there were a couple tutorials that said to keep practicing it properly and to not go back at all to the bad form, but when i tried that, my speed was at like 20 so.. ima just do it after the event lol :)
