0.22 for me, but I did get 0.11 once. (as well as 2.79 when I got distracted by a coworker) ---

As stupid as this site is, I’m impressed at its accuracy. Earlier last night I recorded my .24 time. I was alert, sober, and doing _my_ interpretation of multi-tasking. As the night wore on and I had a few, my reaction timed worsened considerably. Ahh, who am I kidding- it went straight down the crapper. At one point my best time was in the mid-fifties and heading towards the sixties. I went to bed. But now, an hour or two after waking up, my time is still in the high thirties. I’m not hung over or feel tired. Actually, I feel quite good. Mentally, I feel as alert now as I did when I recorded last nights .24 time. Apparently, I’m not as alert as I’d like to think. All in all, kind of interesting. ---

I’m consistantly at .23 or .24 seconds. I can’t seem to beat that. It is addicting, though. ---

I keep getting .23 or .231. I’m wondering how gunslinger would fare, he should have the faster time, no? ---

Pressed mouse by accident and got 0.05 and a “Well Done” Couldn’t get better than 0.23 otherwise. ---

I seem to do better with the enter key than I do with a mouse click. I couldn’t get below .23 with the mouse, but then started using the enter key and was gettin consistant .16s and .17s. This is strangely addictive. ---

20 tries, average .195 (damn coworkers distracted me for most of a second on one, but I counted it). Most common value 0.18, best time 0.14. ---

I was mostly 0.28, 0.27 and 0.22, with a few 0.33 and a 0.39 thrown in. ---

The instructions say it’s “more addictive than any drug”. Well, it does increase the heart rate. ---

I average differently depending on what I use to click. If I use the touch pad/mouse buttons(I don’t have a regular mouse), I average .33. (and using the touchpad to tap, I did VERY poorly-averaging almost a full second) BUT using the TAB button and Enter, I average around .17. Hmmm…I didn’t think I was responding slower…eh, who knows. 🙂 It’s still addicting. ---

0.22 to 0.27 Once I looked away and got a 2.1 second and it asked if I fell asleep. It’s bad enough that this thing is addictive, does it have to mock me too? ---

When I use the mouse I consistantly get .22 to .33. When I switched to the Tab-Enter technique I got .16 almost everytime.(except the 7.6 when my dog decided it would be fun to bite my leg) ---

Well, the first time, I was too entranced with the pretty colors and got a .28. But I consistently got a .16 after that. And in one brief shining moment of psychic flash, I got a .02. (Actually I think I accidentally hit the mouse button, but…) ---

You can improve your time by pressing START, and then immediately clicking but HOLDING DOWN the stop button. Then, when the background color changes, RELEASE the button. BWA HAHAHAHAHAHAH!!! [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/relfex-tester/38366.md?page=1)
