Yeah, depending on the angle of it, perspective kept kicking in. Made it hard sometimes! |

I've been addicted to this too but have been hitting the high 2's at best (when not using a ruler :P) I'm getting better at this eyeballing stuff since my first scores were in the 3-5 range. |

| Holy smokes you guys, those are great scores! I just arrived at work ahead of a 4 to midnight shift, first guy I ran into in the breakroom scored about 5.6 on his first attempt. Hope it doesn't make you nervous to fly heheh. |

Ok this was an 8th or ninth attempt I think (the first attempt score was 3.4 something).. I really think practice makes teh score better.. and yes.. no rulers used here:-)

5.22...tried it many times and stayed pretty much in the lower 5 area.
Question, just curious...would the slight curve of a CRT monitor affect the way you are seeing these shapes? I might try it next week on my wife's laptop to see if there is any difference.

Nice one - thanks for link. I'll drive my designers mad with this.

cool game indeed.
3.93, but it's midnight and my eyes aren't working very well...
i've always had a pretty good eye, so was not impressed at my 8 and 6s. however, the .4 was gratifying.

I actually got madder the closer I was. *shrug* I also had to look up what a parallelogram was.

Eh... I got pretty close to most of them but i wasn't good at the triangle center. |

How about sharing this with some of your colleagues to see how they do. Just curious. :D |
I'll do that. I'm also suspicious that some of those super-low scores are made by means of using rulers and protractors etc, taking the "eyeball" aspect out of it. But I'll see if anyone at work will give it a shot and will report the results for better or for worse. |

Oooohhh, never thought of that! Wait... I'm gonna see how much difference it makes... brb!
Lol, I measured everywhere, used straightedge for the angle of convergence one, protractor for the angles....
And got 3.74... wayyyyy worse! |
Yup. I wonder how many of the highest scores are from using a ruler. I got a 4.71 on my first try, then pulled out a ruler for the fun of it and got a 2.07 then a 1.52. A good deterrent for the ruler cheat would be to include time in the scoring. It took me much longer by cheating. Oh well, it's all fun & games. :P |
