Try a more deliberate round
After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Notice the feedback after each input.
Your objective
Type the line exactly or maximise correct typing within sixty seconds. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Return to the instructions when a step is unclear.
From the start of a round
- Start challenge.
- Type words and spaces as shown.
- Check speed and accuracy feedback.
- Exact completion or the timer ends the round.
The controls to know
Use a keyboard in the input field. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Use one clear input at a time.
Put the rules into context
WPM uses correctly positioned characters divided by five and elapsed minutes. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Check the stated objective.
An important reminder
Pasting is not representative typing practice. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
