I said to Nathan at the LV tourney that whomever can get the 50 tiles on their side of the board into the tilebag should get to go first. It would add a new wrinkle into the game!

[wrongradical]

I would go first *every single time*.

I think Dave Wiegand is faster than you. I got my tiles in the bag first in each of my first 14 games in Vegas, but Wiegand embarrassed me with his ambidextrous technique.

No. It sounds like spam. I cannot bring myself even to watch this clip. Why is it that no one seems to believe celebrities when they say they cannot bear to watch their own movies or TV shows? I have not seen any more than the YouTube screen capture. Perhaps I am embarrassed by my lacklustre performance; this clip hardly features me picking up the tiles in my usual rapid pace.

[ar_raqis]

OK, how long do you usually take?

[quinquennia]

It is a little spammy. And yes, I've seen you do much faster. I bet you can trim the time down to about 30 seconds on a better board. Next time I see you at a tourney can we do a reshoot sheroot shooter hooters soother?

[wrongradical]

You may, if it is on my board and if there is no audience. And I can beat even Wiegand at this: where the one hundred tiles are picked up *one at a time*.

The site looks legitimate. The e-mail doesn't really look legitimate. I'll probably link some of my typing videos to the site... They seem to accept any sorts of records, while Guinness doesn't even have typing records anymore (except fastest to type the alphabet - and there are several people who do that better than I do). Guinness apparently thinks more people will be interested on fastest typing on a Smartphone.

[quinquennia]

I can hardly believe Guinness doesn't have proper speed typing records. That's lousy.
