Ditto here. Bone tired and bleary-eyed I can still pump out north of 14,000 keystrokes per hour with 100% accuracy, provided the test allows you to backspace to correct errors.
Test for me was words per minute. They said I need to get at least above 50 words per minute. I got 90 words per minute with 91% accuracy ^^
Yeah, we're the same. I average at 91 wpm at around 95% accuracy. 96wpm or something with 100%. A lot of front desk jobs that I've applied at don't really believe me, as the average is 30-40wpm. And front desks look for 'faster' people at around 50wpm.

Huzzah for IRE!
Slackers, I average around 110, and I'm not even close to the fastest I know. I remember Kaevan used to beat me constantly with those typing test races.
30-40wpm..? Wtf... Even my 53y/o mother types faster than that, and she's the type who only uses her two index fingers for typing, whilst looking at the keyboard.
Last I checked, I was around ~125 (96% acc)... Damn, maybe I'm going for the wrong sort of job if that's all you need for data entry.

I used to be in the 120-130 range until my accident. Now I'm down to about 65 (half the use = half the words)
@Xaden We always assumed you were just roleplaying a guy who was a little slow and liked shorter sentences.
Read: "we just thought you were stupid."

I used to do some audio transcription in university and peaked at
around 135-140 WPM, not error-free but I set up a bunch of things to
auto correct common typos I made. I got rejected from a data entry job I applied to for part time that only asked for 70 WPM, despite literally acing the screening test at 110 (because I was being careful).
In other news, today marks the first year of playing Achaea according to the forum pop up. Thought I had started later than this, but a neat reminder anyhow! It's been a great year so far !

Logged into Mhaldor today, only to be greeted by Targossian Forces chilling in the same room. Guess I should be thankful I came around when there wasn't a full force fight going on.

So this happened today! You have reached the illustrious level of Greater Dragon.
I was going for a 0 death dragon run initially, but silent updates to Delos guards ruined that. They now attack you just for following someone if that person tumbles out even if you've never attacked them before ever. So that cost me a quick death at lower levels. So now I guess I'll just have to settle for being a 1 death dragon.

Obviously you need to try again with a new character and aim for 0, since you so miserably failed in your goal this time around!

IMO a zero death dragon run that includes strategies like 'Follow other people around while they do all the work and I get to sit in what I assume is perfect safety' is sort of entirely against the spirit of a 0-death challenge run.

Um, first off that'd be assuming I follow for xp instead of just to spend time with that person in that specific moment. I'm not even that old so I would not have made it to dragon following people around yet. If you want that 6% back I lost dying from level 70 something you can have it.
The majority of his dragon hunt was alone. Any time he did hunt with a partner he participated every single step of the way, but he hasn't hunted with a partner in quite a while now. If he wasn't attacking on the Delos guard update he was braziering for heal so tumble didn't have to keep happening. Unfortunately his death happened before we were aware of the guards having the update to attack all following parties, but they had been buffed up before that with their new skills. Unfortunately he died in a room that no brazier help was needed (or so I thought), I died and ran, left him behind and he died. He also would attack Delos guards except Shale and Clynalia before the buffs because they were more manageable then. Kogan hates just leeching and feels bad if he can't participate somehow.
Had a real grueling 40 min fight with @Proficy yesterday randomly for Sartan. Toughest fight I've had in awhile cause we were both playing real defensive cause of the god factor. We both had really close brushes with locks/kills throughout but he blew me up in the end.
Ive been really unmotivated to login recently, but I think that fight got me back a bit.

Finally managed to complete this after a -long- time, then had a little hunt with friends to celebrate it. Died once, good times, would do again

One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that one's work is terribly important

Unrelated, after taking some advice from a housemate to heart about 2h combat, I have learned to stop worrying and love the non-disembowel kills.
