Sounds like jealousy to me. Why so angry and bitter these days Zoran?Zoran wrote:Jordan, when will you type next time? When an enlgish text wins?
If I am someone I wouldn't let you type whenever you want. Yeah, it's free for everyone to come on typingzone and type but the problem with you and a few other typists is that you come here only when you can get some position. I'm really glad becuase Andrei beat you, and Brazilian guy also. That is telling you that you CAN'T win EVEN in your own language. Too bad, you will never ever type again probably now, after this. If you just knew, you wouldn't send your score. What a shame!
I probably would if I could get the software working in wine, so that I don't have to reboot into Windows. I guess I could also install Windows in a virtual machine, but that seems like too much trouble since I wouldn't use Windows for anything else.Son wrote:Last, but not least: Jelani, why didn't you participate?
i am very convinced that he is not 16 years old,he's 20Son wrote:

I'm not jealous, but I'm tired of people like you. Just a few of us types on EVERY SINGLE master. Where have you been on a last few masters? You were sick, on a trip, being busy? I don't think so. You just come to type on master when you THINK (but just think) you can beat the rest of typing contestants, but this time you've made a mistake, a big one.

First at all, if I didn't invite you to typeracer and typingzone you would never be able to know about these sites. Second, I am more like a host here, and you are just a occasional guest.

Yes, you DID, BUT you never type in any other language but yours. That's not the POINT of this site. Try to beat the rest of typists here on some other language. I NEVER typed on my own language, but I always type. NO EXCUSES for me, for Karen, for Andrei, for Martin, for Damien...incith wrote: I beat you. Deal with it.
Chris never beats me in an english text! He beats me in French OF COURSE. Nothing strange.Son wrote:Hello Zoran,
Here is my opinion:
1. A guy who is 1st place (Karen) will try not to lose it, unless he must travel abroad, and he doesn't have enough time (nor good keyboards) to practice.
-> I am really sorry for what happened to Karen, but he still has chances to recover.
2. A guy who is 2nd place (me) will always push himself hard, because in the end, maybe he could win the championship.
-> That's exactly what I did, I typed the bloody text hundreds of times, over and over and over again....
3. A guy who is 16 years old (Guilherme) has a lot of energy and ambition, and wants to test his limits, so he would practice like crazy.
-> good job Guilherme, it was another impressive performance !
4. Jordan is a very fast guy, but he seems overconfident. Maybe he was convinced of his superiority, therefore he didn't put enough effort. On the other hand, you are right too: it is impossible to win every time, even in one's own language (Karen beat me in Romanian toohttp://typingzone.com/?page=archives&month=2006-01 )
5. Well done Zoran, you almost secured the 3rd spot, but be careful next month, Chris might plan a comeback
I remember when you used to be cool. Then one day, you blocked me for no reason, and decided everyone was against you. This is called being "crazy". Also, I use an air conditioner when I type. Sweaty hands = not good! Duh!Zoran wrote:and Jordan needs everything to be JUST perfect to type (english text, good weather conditions, hot place for typing....).
We'll see will he type in december if french text wins. I don't think so. That is called "being a coward".
Zoran, again, I am not sure what you are trying to justify by writing such utter nonsense. You are just making yourself sound childish.Zoran wrote:I'm not jealous, but I'm tired of people like you.

No, you aren't. Get over yourself, kid. Would you be happier these days if you had never shown me typingzone? Lol. Maybe you would have got 3rd place then.Zoran wrote:First at all, if I didn't invite you to typeracer and typingzone you would never be able to know about these sites.

Why? I don't type in French. I type in English... try to beat me. =) I have no desire, urge, motivation, or will to bother typing in a foreign language. I type fast in English and I have fun doing it -- something you need to learn again (the fun part).Zoran wrote:Yes, you DID, BUT you never type in any other language but yours.

Try to beat me on the french text for example, in typing numbers....
