Jim Katen Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Originally posted by Brandon Whitmore http://woodgears.ca/eyeball/ Me: 4.3 Girlfriend: 3.1 arghhh Hmm. My first try: 20.13 (ok, I was unclear on the concept.) Took me 5 trys to get down to 3.2 I found it very interesting that I made the same mistakes consistently. For instance: I always pegged the center of the circle a little lower than it should have been. In bisecting the angle, I tended to err towards the longer line. In making a parallelogram, I always made one that converged to correct for "perspective." In making a right angle, I erred toward making it closer to the outside border of the frame. Did anyone else notice this kind of uniformity of error? The fascinating part is that, even when I was aware of my error modes, it didn't help much. - Jim Katen, Oregon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inspectorjoe Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 I guess I should have learned what a Parallelogram is before I started. [:-ashamed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bain Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 9.95 I did well on everything but the convergences and parallelograms. Both scores were close to 30. I'm thinking it would help to tilt my head and find a true horizontal before making an adjustment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randynavarro Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 7.12 I let go of the mouse too soon on one and got a 50. Skewed the whole think. I'm trying again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randynavarro Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 3.3 Did y'all check out the guy's website? There's some pretty cool stuff he's made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erby Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 Great with the convergence, suck with the parallelogram, always a bit high on the circles but the angles came easy when I tilted my head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurt Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 34.7 on the first try, 3.4 on the second. Was within 1 unit on the convergence and center of the circle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fqp25 Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 It took me about 4 or 5 times to get to 3.4. I've been letting go of the mouse too soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Whitmore Posted November 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 Did anyone else notice this kind of uniformity of error? The fascinating part is that, even when I was aware of my error modes, it didn't help much. The only uniformity of error I am noticing is that I never get close to the triangle center. It's screwing up my average. I'm gonna have to subcontract that one out from now on. The parallelogram, angle bisecting, and right angles are a breeze for me. Some of the other ones......not so much. Some of the high scores I am seeing are amazing........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 I agree with the head tilt improving the score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Have not been able to break 10.0 yet, even with my glasses! I keep skewing everything to the far right. Circle and convergence are my strong items! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurt Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Yes, head tilt. Got a 2.7 after several tries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad Fabry Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 After about a half hour I got a 2.7 I had three zero's, two on bisecting an angle and 1 finding the midpoint. I can't get below a 7 on the damn parallelogram. ( I also can't spell it w/o spell check) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Anybody try with one eye closed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Raymond Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 3.8 first try, line centers were the hardest with circles a very close second. Tilting my head helped with some of the 90's but didn't do a damn thing for the circles[]. Fun site, definately going in my favorites.

gtblum Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 3.3 third try. Lousey parallelograms eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Katen Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Originally posted by Jeremy Anybody try with one eye closed? Wow. I played at least a dozen times and couldn't get below 3. By tilting my head, I got to 2.9. When I tilted my head and closed one eye, I got 2.76. The head tilting really helps with the 90-degree figures. The single eye really helps with the parallelograms. Only problem is, I'm dizzy now. - Jim Katen, Oregon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
