Reaction test

sluggish snail

which is stupid. not what I expected from the bbc, newgrounds maybe. my reactions were perfectly fine, and not apt to be deemed a sluggish snail. this is like a stupid newgrounds flash game not something I'd expect to find on the science pages of the bbc. the reaction speed you need to win you just get with luck and timing.

Best I can do:

pepp77 · 4 Jan 2013 at 16:27

Managed to get 0.052 on sheep 2, but all the rest were 0.38-0.44, so think the quick one must have been a complete fluke.

0.277 overall - bobbing bobcat

billyboyd · 4 Jan 2013 at 17:06

0.25 Average time

Pretty good for an older gamer who is on a lot of strong meds I thought.

0.2566 overall - Bobbing Bobcat

Won't complain, old age approaching!

Fastest single one I got was 0.166, but I can't sustain it.

Done it several times now and the fastest overall time is 0.237. My other attempts are all in the same region so I guess that is where I am.

0.187

Not bad for a slightly drunk 32 year old

Worth bearing in mind that monitor response time has an impact in these sort of tests.
Usually, around 0.2s is regarded as average, the people consistently getting over 0.25s probably have poor monitors or bad reactions (surprised at Rroff as I thought he had a good 120hz panel).

.21 is my best, 43 yrs old. Be interesting to see everyone's age with their score.

dirtybeatfreak · 4 Jan 2013 at 19:02

.219

EDIT for above post : I'm 33

Definitely, I was 0.3+ on my aging Dell 2407, drag it over to 120hz Samsung goodness and down to .21!

and quick reactions

PapaLazaru · 4 Jan 2013 at 21:17

0.166 quickest.

36.

0.312

I'm old.

Curio · 4 Jan 2013 at 22:10

Rocketing Rabbit. 0.114 was my best time. I was probably even better 10 years ago when I was addicted to Quake 2 and Quake 3.....twitch-shooters are great for the reflexes

EDIT: Also, not bad for a 38 year old on a Friday afternoon with a 16 month old who keeps him up at night

quotidian · 4 Jan 2013 at 22:15

0.3606 and I'm also terrible at FPS games.

So there's some positive correlation
