Multiplayer Typing Race Rules
The rules are intentionally light: one shared passage, a host who starts the race, and results that show how each person typed.

Room rules
- A host creates the room and chooses the race settings.
- Players join with a display name while the room is waiting.
- The host starts when the group is ready.
- Everyone types the same passage.
- Room and player data supports the live race and may expire or be removed after it ends.
How the winner is shown
The final results view orders players by WPM and shows each player’s accuracy. It is a snapshot of that race, not a global leaderboard.
Good race etiquette
- Use a display name that your group can recognise.
- Share room links only with intended participants.
- Treat accuracy and steady practice as valid goals alongside speed.
- Start a new room if an old room has expired.
Practical tips
- ✎Explain the duration before the host starts so everyone knows what to expect.
- ✎A calm rematch is often more useful than chasing a single result.
