Response time??

I have around 400-450ms using the mouse, and 300-350ms when cheating by having the focus over stop and hitting enter on the keyboard. Almost 1/3-1/2 second... pretty bad.

(All times are first try.)

0.38 seconds, using the default color.

0.27 on casperblue.

0.27 on lime green as well.

0.27 on darkolivegreen.


I find it interesting they didn't use a bright yellow, seeing as yellow is the color first recognized by the eye.

I got it down to .16 seconds by holding the mouse button down over the "STOP" key, so all I have to do is release the button in order for it to register me as having reacted to the background. That saved me more than a tenth of a second (down from about .28 seconds).

I actually managed to get 0.21 a few times but I usually got around .26 most of the time

Doing it the way of holding the stop button down and then releasing it when the colour changes I got .17

Is it cheating to have you mouse over the stop? When I do that, my lowest is a 0.28. "Could be better..."

Man, it's not easy. ;)

After about 5-10 tries with each method, I got these results:

.28 using the honest way.
.062 by highlighting the "stop" button and pressing "enter"
.156 by holding down "stop" before the background changes, and then releasing.
