Title: Eyeballing game
Post by: just Warren on July 02, 2012, 07:50:34 PM
See how good you are at finding the center of circles, triangles, the midpoint of lines and so forth.

Overall score (after 8oz of rum): 9.4

Perfect score: Bisect angle

Best Categories: Right angle, Point of convergence

Worst Categories: Parallelogram, Triangle center

Gonna have to try that again sober.

I am curious about the scoring that tells me I am in some top tier at 5.35.  I am thinking a lot of the lower scorers don't understand the questions.

I did a bit worse on the third trial because I started getting in a hurry.

4.59, would have done a better had no I not brain farted on the meaning of convergence the first round.

Parallelogram   7.8   4.1   6.3
Midpoint   0.0   1.0   9.1
Bisect angle   3.1   5.0   14.6
Triangle center   1.9   6.1   4.8
Circle center   3.2   2.0   4.2
Right angle   0.0   0.2   0.7
Convergence   11.7   6.1   4.5

Average error:   4.59   (lower is better)
Time taken:   167.3

Your inaccuracy by category:
Parallelogram 1.0 3.2 5.4
Midpoint      2.0 3.0 3.0
Bisect angle 1.7 2.5 2.8
Triangle center 5.4 6.9 4.1
Circle center 3.6 2.8 3.2
Right angle 0.8 0.7 1.0
Convergence 1.0 5.8 1.0
Average error:   2.90   (lower is better)
Time taken:      223.0

That one outlier convergence test was the mouse jerking as I released the button.  I need a new mouse without sticky buttons.  Also apparently finding the center of a triangle kicks my brain's ass.

3.42. Not special considering that eyeballing is my stock in trade. I've learned at work and at shooting though that what you think you see is influenced by a lot of things like light, visual distraction, and what you want to see.

Overall score: 3.62
Time: 188.32

Had a major outlier (>9) on one of the convergence tests when I released the mouse button too early.
