That's exactly the point -- you need to try to keep up. This slight frustration is the part that makes you get better ;)

- fudged71 14y agoBut your score includes mistakes that you make! Is a space not a mistake? Is it not a key that you need to press? When it skips to the next word, it's quite non-intuitive to not put a space first. If you don't press space, you're violating the idea of words. If you press space, the sentence you've constructed in your head is broken. Either way, it slows me down and frustrates me too much to play :)
- ZaneClaes 14y agoThe way it's coded, there are 2 conditions that move it forward: either pressing space, or the timer expiring. Pressing the space thus is not an error, but rather the condition that moves the text forward. Also, as I mentioned below, the timer gets faster as you get more words correct. The original study used only a timer, and had the same frustration which you speak of here.
