Triche ?

J'ai l'impression que le candidat Timothy Rowold a utilisé un logiciel pour frapper le texte en anglais automatiquement à sa place. Nom de fantôme : TiRow. Sa frappe est totalement régulière, aucune faute, le même intervalle entre chaque lettres. C'est d'autant plus frappant si on regarde la vitesse à laquelle il a tapé le texte en français. De plus j'ai du mal à croire qu'il puisse réaliser en un seul jour 150 sur le texte en anglais et 1,1 à l'alphabet.
Qu'en pensez-vous ?

Hello Traumer.
It would indeed be very fishy if someone made both records in less than 24 hours, but let's not forget that he's been a member of our community since June 2009. Maybe he has gradually improved those records, and when he thought they were "brave" enough to be shown, he clicked "send".
I watched his ghost for English text.... yes, he has a good regularity, but I definitely noticed some longer hesitations. I'm not saying he didn't cheat, I'm just stating facts here. He may, or may not have bitten the forbidden fruit

Hi Son,
Watch his ghost on the french text. I can't imagine someone with a so regular stroke (and so fast) type like this even if it's not his langage. And by the way, he did only 82 wpm on the master of June which was in English. Maybe I'm wrong but I find his results weird, especially after watching his ghost on the English text.

Hmm, I think I had originally watched my own ghost, instead of Tim's

))))) But now I saw his, too.
Yes, you may have a point.....
Let's see what JeanDid has to say about it !

Hello,
I've checked his ghost on English text. For sure, it looks very regular, but maybe it's possible... The point is that it passed the automatic check-test, so it's not as regular as it looks...

You can cheat every program. But typing zone is very hard to cheat, that's why cheaters are very few around here.
But in the case of Timothy, jeandid you should watch his ghost on the french text, I definitely can't believe a such difference of speed and regularity between English and French.

My excuses to Timothy. Considering his new scores, I don't think anymore he is a cheater. Just an incredible regularity, that's why it's look like it was automatic typing. Sorry for my mistake.
The cases of "Master Geelok" and "Milosevicth Craneur" will even not be a question : delete them jeandid !

Je suppose que le nouveau meneur aux alphabets a réarrangé les lettres de son clavier pour se hisser en première position...

En effet, faire 0,9 aux deux alphabets en l'espace d'une journée alors que l'on tape le texte en anglais à moins de 40 mpm, c'est plus que suspect ...
For Timothy it seems that his account has been deleted. Well on the french text he got something between 125-130, I don't remember exactly. His ghost was the same than his english : same speed all the time, no errors...well at the moment I didn't think anymore that he was a cheater because a cheater would not have spend so much time to improve, no ? Well I don't know for his case, it smells fishy but I'm not sure 100% he was a cheater. Weird ghosts and weird improvements anyway.

Hello, I just saw this topic posted and figured I would post here to vindicate my name. Sorry for necro'ing the topic.
The 130+ wpm was indeed not my true score, it was my friend's score. I don't know how she did it, she may have cheated, or she may have typed that way, but nonetheless, it was not my score. I emailed the webmaster a while back, and had him remove the scores, simply because they were not my scores.
Thanks and sorry for any previous inconvenience. I realize this happened over 3 months ago.

Arset URIX à triché pour les alphabets non? Avec ses records impressionnants de 0.356 pour l'alphabet à l'endroit et de 0.383 pour l'alphabet à l'envers...
