136. I hit it in eleven days, is that acceptable? ;) (Well - I finished it on day eleven with 53k, but I hit 50k itself on day ten.)

I, uh, can't vouch for the quality of my work *laughs* Although it isn't horrendous, and it's certainly better than the month-long one I wrote in 2006. I DEFINITELY didn't cheat - I wrote my first word at precisely midnight on Saturday the 1st of November (local time), and I DEFINITELY wouldn't write just... gibberish. Who the hell does that, anyway? :( It's kinda depressing - there are NO PRIZES, GUYS, IT'S A PERSONAL CHALLENGE.

...Anyway. I did actually have a reason to try and finish mine early - I have a ton of exams to study for and assessments to do this month, (I'm actually writing this in a break from my chemistry report) so if I get it done early, then I can focus on academics. (Plus, taking the entire first weekend off, getting 15,000 in the first day, which took about... ten hours? I knew exactly what I wanted to write and type FAST, though! Then 5,000 the next day - that gives you a substantial boost.)

But yeah. It is possible to write fast without writing, well, gibberish. And there were a few days where I only hit 2k and had to make it up on other days with 5k or 8k or something. It only takes a few hours - I hit my first thousand words in the first half hour.

...Anyway. People who hit 250,000 in a week, THEY'RE the ones who make me go o.O (Fifty thousand in ten days? Totally doable, it just averages out to 5k a day, or three or four hours of writing. 250,000 in a week? That's 35k a day!)

50k a day is definitely doable - 250k in a week takes a little under 3k/hour for twelve hours straight - 35k/day. I've thought more than once that some of these people write "Oh look, a copy of War and Peace, let me read it aloud!" and then copy/paste from project gutenberg or something.

Hmm... I guess. Still, that's still about 1,000 words every twenty minutes! You'd have to type insanely fast, you wouldn't be able to pause, you couldn't spend five minutes staring at the screen going, "Um, what comes next?"...

something like 47wpm - which is easy enough on its own; it gets harder once you have no idea what happens next.

Yeah, the wordcount itself isn't the weird bit (I personally type at 67wpm), it's just... the continually typing without pause bit! Even after a few hours, my brain starts getting itchy and I HAVE to take a break. I mean, no pauses? No trying to work out what happens next? No taking a quick peek at Wiki for some last-minute research? No breaks to have a snack or go to the loo? It's a bit... yeah. (And yes, I wrote 15,000 words in ten hours, but that was stretched over a twenty-four hour day!)
