12, in a room with too much sun and shiny monitors. Mind you, each of my eyes sees colour differently anyway.

Of course, the test means shit unless your monitor is accurately calibrated. :attitude:

Phew. Turns out my girly eyes aren't just for show.

Not really true, seeing as you're comparing them to each other on the screen, you're not trying to guess hex codes, or anything.

Well I'm only guessing as it's blocked here.

Bugger i guess when i had a one inch thorn stab me right through the eye when i was 11 it really did do some damage

Still have a notch missing from my iris from where it went in, always have opticians thinking i have a cataract forming when they first look at my left eye.

Interesting fact of the day, did you know that the human eye rotates really slowly (over a period of years that is) i have tracked the notch from the 2 o'clock position around fully and then a bit more to 3 o'clock.

That's a much better test of my ability to be arsed (99 - low ability to be arsed).

Perfect color vision here, although I would disagree and say I have perfect colour vision...

It's the earth tilting on its axis, you appear to have a gyroscopic eye.

I am genuinely surprised by this, I think it might be broken.

Monitor is a netbook jobbie, and it looks different depending on the angle of viewing!

I have done this before, cannot remember my score from then though...

I do think if I was to have done this in 4 sittings then I would have got a higher score, as towards the end I think I was getting a little bored.

Just as interesting would be the time it took to do the test, I would imagine. Getting 0 is all well and good, but agonising over every choice might not be that useful a skill

This is quite a good thing considering you've just wired up your bosses's private jacuzzi.

I would image some colour quality of the monitor must play some part in the test and might explain the slight difference in scores.... well I would think that... doesn't mean I'm right.
