Clavogonki - statistics 2009

I want to present a small statistics Klavogonok for 2009.

In 2009, 72,107 people registered on Klavogony . Of these, 10,643 passed at least 100 races.

In total, 8438806 texts were typed by all players (average text size is 200-300 characters).
')
The most numerous arrival was recorded on November 26 at 22:00 (competition with a rating of x5) - 94 people participated in it.

Next, some charts, and at the end of the topic - the magic formula.



Basically, most players are gaining at an average speed of 100-200 kn / min. The peak falls on 150 characters per minute, with such an average speed gaining more than 14 thousand people. The distribution of players in speed (average and record) is given below.



In splitting into game ranks, it looks like this:



The most popular was, of course, the mode "Normal" - 6450831 races for 2009. The next one is the user's “Frequency Dictionary” and “Short Texts”. In total for 2009 1041 user dictionary was created. The 15 most popular non-standard modes are shown below.



Since the introduction of November 1, the rating system and the ability to acquire various cars, the players have bought 483 cars in total. Only purchased cars are considered here; the number of “leased” free rank models directly follows from the distribution of players by rank.



And finally, the most delicious - a small study on the benefits of exercises on Klavogonkah and the effectiveness of improving speed. The study was conducted among those 10,643 people who typed at least 100 texts. Of these, 5,389 people typed 250 texts and more, 1,571 - more than 1,000 texts, 414 - more than 3,000 texts and 138 - more than 6,000 tests. Cumulative graph showing this pattern with the splitting into categories of players (Y-axis in a logarithmic scale for greater indicativeness):



Next, measure the average speed of these people at the beginning of the year and at the end of the year. 3535 people improved their average speed by 30 characters / min or more; 1846 of them - more than 50 characters / min; 471 - more than 100 characters / min; 134 - more than 150 characters / min:



As we see, on a logarithmic scale, the graph is almost straightforward, which is interesting in itself.

Comparing these two graphs, you can build the most interesting - the predicted number of typed texts depending on the specified improvement in the average speed:



Total for all categories:



At the end, the results begin to float, as players who achieved an improvement in the average speed of 200 characters / min are quite a bit, but the trend still peeks.

So, we can conclude that if your print speed is in the region of 100-300 characters / min, then in order to increase it by another 50 characters / min, you will need to type about 800 texts on Klavogonkah . Of course, this is only true if you do not have extraordinary talents or extraordinary learning disabilities.
