Default Race car wannabees.

This test has been going around, it's supposedly designed to test mental agility and reaction.

If you can go longer than 22 seconds you are phenomenal. It's been saidthe US Air Force uses this for fighter pilots. They are
expected to go forat least 2minutes. Give it a try!!

The object of the game is to move the
red
block around without getting hit by the blue blocks or touching the black walls.

Post up your best time!!!!!!!!

I got a 56.762 after two attempts.

Let me find my response to the NASIOC version of this thread:

I also hear that the Coast Guard requires applicants to reach level 9 in under 4 minutes on this:

I keep getting killed around 22.something after playing for a few minutes. Best was 25.something. I'm gonna blame it on the gummy mouse-to-table interface.

Didn't we play his last year or two? Slow down your mouse tracking, and learn the pattern. I did 30+ seconds on my 5th try.

20 seconds. I suck, but I'm also using a f'ing laptop mouse too! That little finger pad sucks for this kind of stuff!
