Check Your Reaction Time

[gun sane]

This test is said to determine how old you are by the number of milliseconds it takes to react to a signal.  I took it twice and, according to the results, I'm a 51-year-old 20-year old.  I was afraid to keep testing  because I might start dating again.

Hah. Took it three times. I'm mid thirties and first time it said I was 24, second time it said 41 and third time it said "not sure if you're a human" it was so quick. I'll quit while I'm ahead.

But then did it again and got "'We're not sure if you're an actual human being" with 269 ms.

Best I got was 267.  Most put me in the 24-28 year old range.

Honestly, from a technical standpoint, monitor and keyboard, mouse will play into this some.

Newer monitors have typically 1, 5, or 10 ms lag, potentially even more.

Depending on what sort of switch your keyboard has, it could impact as well.

For example, I was doing quite well on my keyboard but then switched to trying clicking the mouse. My reaction time went up a few hundred ms when I did this.

When I tried with my wireless trackpad my times went way up.  Switched back to the wired keyboard and got 245.

Yeah, I don't want to talk about mine

3 attempts on the mouse and within 3-4 years of my age.  Twice with the keyboard and I'm suddenly 20 years younger.

Apparently I'm older than dirt...

Yeah, ...I got that about the 6/7th time. lol I laughed at it. Mostly, I range from 67(too dang close) to 42. As I kept going, I managed to consistently be 42.

I wish.

[usuviri]

Yeah... I'm not human.  Going over to the Zombie Apocalypse forum I guess

My phone takes 15-19 years off my age. I knew upgrading would be worth it.

Thanks to gun sane for posting this.  It is fun whether it is very 'scientific' or not.

I first tried it 10 times with the keyboard as I thought 10 times should give me a pretty good indication.  I got reaction ages of: 34, 38, 34, 30, 32, 31, 31, 25, 35, 32 for an average of 32.2

After reading some of the above posts I decided to try 10 times with the mouse, as well.  I got: 40, 38, 34, 35, 36, 39, 31, 32, 34, 37 for an average of 35.6

Not great, I guess, but considering I am 45 (will be 46 come June) I'll take either one of them and be satisfied.

Better than me, I am dead.

[krunchnik]

I am 13 years younger-boy I sure don't feel like it.Could be possibly the mouse I use is a gaming mouse with a faster response time-yup that's it alright.

[Dolomite_supafly]

First one was age 28 then the second time was 23. I am hovering in the 280ms range. My wife, after several glasses of wine, did it in 248.

I think it's keyboard dependent. On my desktop I'm immeasurable, but on this laptop I'm 63.

[Oh Shoot]

22-45 with mouse or keyboard on desktop.

As if.

Consistently between 20-26. Lowest has been 18 (302ms)

[NoBanStan]

Yup, i'm officially retiring

That is after two beers and my bourbon I am working on.

I was hovering in my 20's with the mouse an "not actually human" with the keyboard.

It will be depending on which type of switches your keyboard uses.
