Right method, wrong keys.

[mr_pikachu]

...I spent five minutes typing only to find that the mouse had somehow clicked the Start button before I began. *swears loudly*

mr_]placho

Hmm, not bad. Forgot there were brackets on the top letter row on the right, though.

Comment: grrr.

Since no one has objected, I assume that they find this challenge acceptable. Okay, here is my next try (Oh mr_pikachu, you aren't the only one with a folly. When I started to write my name using the method I suggested, I somehow moved the cursor to the top and started writing at the top. After I finished typing, I turned around and saw my writing was at the beginning of the first word of the first sentence. I was think how did that happen.

(Okay, I am apparently bad at this ... I suggested it. No A Pluses for me on this skill.)

[firepokemon]

well first I want to try and do a perfect username with my elbow here is the attempt.

I was so enthusiastic that I forgot the original challenge without trying firsthand and started practicing. I counted and scouted the letters. Still this was the closest I got. Consider me disqualified.

In fact, I am typing whilst facing the other way this entire message. I'm pretty fucking awesome.

Edit: I typed everything else perfectly, even my original name, but not my current.

...Meh. Good enough.

...wow. Space bar, too.

[Magmar]

Magmar! Magmar Magmar Magmar. I'm not backspacing anything. In fact I can type perfectly while looking away! This whole snetence has been typed while looking straight up at the ceiling with my head even turned a bit to the side. I have no problems doing this.

*This whole post was typed without the use of backspace too. However I know when I make a typo without even looking, and automatically backapace! This is what happens when you work in a newspaper and have to deral with surprise beats and writing stories right away, that have to be as close to perfect as possible because you are above the copy editors, and under a very tight deadline! When copying off notes, it's better to look at the notes than at the computer screen.

***Okay. I'm going to bold the typos I've noticed... I'm not going to go back and correct things.

[Blademaster]

Wait, you're allowed to do that? I was typing with my back to the computer!

[Heald]

Magmar, anyone can type without looking at the keyboard, the point was to turn around completely and type the other way around (ie so your left and right hands are swapped over, so your left hand is over the return key and the right hand over the a key.

I'll try again:

Dammit, so close.

Bah, this time I forgot about the backslash key. Oh well... did a lot better nonetheless.

[Crystalmaster Mike]

mr_pikachu, you might just have pressed the Windows button that time...

First attempt, whilst actually being turned around, gave up after the y... I tried aligning my hands to the letters like usual, so I peeked. Sue me. The µ galore come from me thinking I was pressing Shift.

Typed this with the keyboard turned around, and facing the screen. Only letter I retried was the first m.

^-- My attempt for the first challenge, that I actually started typing after the previous comment. Hooray for pointy elbow! Heh, funny how "Mike" turned out.

[Inferno_Dragon]

Okay, I think it is time for me to choose someone to issue the next challenge. There were so many to chose from but I am going to chose .... Crystalmaster Mike. All you had funny reactions to this challenge but nothing was more funnier than Crystalmaster Mike with his first attempt. So Crystalmaster Mike, it is your turn to issue a challenge.

[Crystalmaster Mike]

Okay, so, firepokemon, see if you think this is too easy, 'kay?

Write your username backwards, but switch keyboard settings. If you normally type with AZERTY, type in QWERTY, and vice-versa.

Note that I threw in the backwards stuff because maybe there're people who switch it all the time.

Anyway:

1) In trying to come up with something good, I tried typing my username backwards... No biggy, only I missed Shift for the C.

2) I thought I had switched settings... but I hadn't, so the a was where it was supposed to be, not where it should have been.

3) Written with QWERTY (international United States). I've totally no idea where the M is, so... As for the other keys, I knew there wasn't much difference in where they are.

OK the game is fine but some people here may not know how to change settings.

Thus for the majority of us it means switching from US to French as AZERTY is French.

Now this works for Windows XP I am not sure about Vista. But for Window Xp users go to control panel --> Date, Time, Language and Regional Options --> click the Regional and Language Option --> That will bring you to Regional and Language Options --> Go to the Language Tab --> In the Language tab click Details --> You will see two tabs again, Settings and Advanced --> Click Settings --> You will see an Add Button -->Click the add button --> In the Input Language find French France - Press Ok - Press Ok again. - You will notice in IE or Firefox a tap at the top of your screen which may or may not be set on EN English --> If so just point your mouse at it and click once --> Choose French (France).

(I know that sounds complicated but you should be able to work it out yourself anyway.

Ok and here is mine.
