Hey there! I wish u good races, fellow typing enthusiasts! This is SPU here. I terrifically love typing fast on multiple layouts. Let's chill n' rock it with our lightning fingers!
-My typing journey-
I started typing on 'Fujitsu OASYS,' which my parents had mothballed but they would once a year dust off to write New Year's cards. I just wanted to play a game, but all my digging through their storeroom was to no avail as it was merely bundled with a touch typing tutorial, which said 'Hone your typing skills, you might be able to type without glancing at the keyboard in 2 weeks!', but I thought that this was a hoax and that this would have been a stunt if possible, after all that tutorial had no any practice modes. But I decided that I should give it a shot anyway as it wouldn't be so bad to waste a couple of weeks tapping the keys because I had found that it was so fantastic to type after typing the lyrics of songs that had crossed my mind. It turned out that, to begin with, it just took a couple of days to learn touch-typing. I was glad that the idea of typing without glancing wasn't a hoax, after all! ☺
Along with TR, which is my favorite, I also type in: 10FF, Key Hero, Klavogonki.ru, bladevampirek's 'Key Rollover' typing trainer. Key Rollover is an awesome movement in the typist world.
-Typing analysis-
My best keyboard layouts: QWERTY, DVORAK, Japanese Romaji & Kana, Russian ФЫВА-ОЛДЖ and French AZERTY.
Finger placement: it mostly conforms to the standard 'Proper Finger Placement,' unless I reach farther keys like Backspace, Esc, preferring longer fingers over pinkies so that you can reach 'em just tilting your hand slightly.
(UPDATED in 2023) I grew out of 'PFP' and retired my left pinky, since it tethers your left hand on the ground. Thus, your fingers know no boundaries, move freely, increase accuracy like by 2%.
Spacebar: I cover it with my left thumb to give my right hand leeway.
Upper-case letters: I use both Shift keys pressing them with my ring fingers.
✓ Typed all 7938 texts (as of Nov. 13, 2023)
-Keyboards-
Apple Magic w/ numpad (current)
Razer Blackwidow Elite (yellow linear switches)
Dell wired (as shown in the pic)
