I scored an 85. I was ready to come in and laugh all over you chumps, until I read:

A lower score is better, with ZERO being the perfect score.

Well, shit. Maybe I should go see the optometrist.

22.  Did anyone else have the illusion that the pieces weren't quite square?

Also:  Egopont has a colour test if you get such a bad score you think you might be colourblind.  There's also a hearing range estimator.  Mine appears to be 200Hz to 12000Hz.

20, and they weren't just not quite square, they weren't aligned the same- different border widths on different sizes. looks like the blue-green range is my trouble area, which makes sense.

Do I have really good color recognition or were you guys just not trying very hard?

Considering that you are a pretty active and talented visual artist, I'd say the likely explanation is that you have good color vision.

I got a 12.  That made for a good percentile score, but according to the test the highest score for my gender and age range was 1492, which would basically be black and white vision.  Either someone's sandbagging, or on the internet people actually can tell that you're a dog.

I don't really have time to do this now but I already know I'm red-green colourblind so when I do I'm sure you'll all feel better.








Except you, Golfhaus.

At work we considered filling it out completely backwards just to see what the highest possible score it. I'm guessing the 1492 person was attempting the same feat and 1500 is the max.

I got a 49.  I think I could have done better if I'd been willing to spend more time on it but it was too unpleasant a task.  I'm not sure what any of this tells me except how I would, like, sort paint chips if someone had a gun to my head. Would a 49 be enough to spare my life? I don't know.
