Human typing only
Every competitive result must be typed by the player in real time. Scripts, macros, pasted text, programmable automation, synthetic input, and tools that complete or correct the passage are prohibited.
Your hands. Your score.
One player, one account
Do not share accounts, play for another person, arrange outcomes, create duplicate accounts to manipulate ratings, or coordinate with an opponent to produce a false result.
Devices and assistance
Normal phone, tablet, physical-keyboard, and translated stenography-writer input is allowed during TypeRival Beta. Ranked Time Trial results are separated into touch, swipe, hardware, and self-declared stenography lanes. Emulators or accessibility tools may not be used to falsify input. Accessibility accommodations will be documented as the competitive system develops.
Scoring
The server verifies the assigned passage, run ticket, permitted duration, timing window, and one-time submission. Accuracy, net WPM, performance score, and rating rules are applied consistently by the service.
Suspicious results
Runs may be marked for review when speed, timing, accuracy, or request patterns appear implausible. Reviewed results do not enter clear leaderboards or award competitive progress unless accepted.
Challenges and conduct
Challenge Links expire and may be shared by anyone who receives them. Private Races require a signed-in account and a room invitation. Do not use handles, links, or competition to impersonate, harass, threaten, or reveal private information.
Enforcement
TypeRival may invalidate results, remove leaderboard entries, limit features, or delete accounts when the evidence supports cheating, abuse, exploitation, or a threat to the competition.
