Taking a Test

// Syntax
[prefix]typing test [language] [wordcount]

// Example
;typing test
;typing test german 50

Serenity posts a block of words. Type them out in one message, as fast and as accurately as you can — the clock runs from the moment the words appear to the moment your message lands.

Both arguments are optional: the default is 25 English words. The word count is capped between 5 and 100.

Your result comes back as WPM and accuracy:

92 WPM / 97% Accuracy

WPM is measured in the standard way — five characters count as one word — and counts only the words you got right. Accuracy is how much of the text you reproduced correctly.

Anti-Cheat

The words are posted in a lookalike font that isn't ordinary text. Copying the block and pasting it back is detected instantly and ends the test, as is any result above 300 WPM. Type it out.

Racing

// Syntax
[prefix]typing race [language] [wordcount]

// Example
;typing race english 25

1. Start the race

   Serenity posts the lobby with a 🗒 and a ✅ reaction.

2. Everyone joins

   React with 🗒 to get on the participant list. At least two people are needed.

3. Start it

   Whoever ran the command reacts with ✅. A three second countdown runs, then the words go up for everyone at once.

4. Results

   Each finisher's WPM and accuracy is posted, ranked, with medals for the top three.

The lobby waits two minutes for a start before giving up. Race results are saved just like solo tests.

Languages

english1000 is the thousand most common English words — the usual choice for chasing a high number rather than practising.

Naming a language Serenity doesn't have gets you the list back instead of a test.

Your Numbers

Stats and history are per server — your results here don't mix with another server's. The global leaderboard is the exception, and ranks everyone by their single best test.
