I'll retake and give an actual score later today. My eyes are still trying to readjust
I actually got 2 perfects on my first go...but I made several mistakes because some of the items allow you to drag the box, while others only allow you to click the answer....I went to drag on some of those and was forced to take that initial placement of the mouse as my answer.

My second go through, no perfects, but I wasn't fooled by those non-dragging items.

I was able to drag all of them too.
My 1st attempt was terrible because I forgot what a parallelogram was.. haha.
After I figured it out, I tried cheating, but I look like a fool w/ a ruler on my screen and I only scored in the mid 5's.

So, when I did it without cheating, I got 4.06.
The right-angle is the one that screws me everytime but I got some perfects on the mid-point of the line.

Cesar: New ROM seems to be working like a CHAMP! Only issue I ran into yesterday was after I added a 2nd email account, every time I went to the emails screen, I kept getting the 'touch here to launch TouchFlo" It just cycled over and over. Tried a reset, same results. Seems to have fixed itself now.

Thanks for the help with the phone, seems much more responsive and is once again a blast to have.
Your SD card should be purchased today or tomorrow.
I need to make that call for your OS later today, haven't forgotten.

alright, back to eye squinting exams...

When you get a chance, go to the camera tab, and click on the camera icon.
Mine doesn't display correctly if I launch the camera from that screen.
To get out of it, hit the "End" call button.

Guess who gutted their car last night, and removed every carpc component, then re-wired
parts and re-assembled the whole thing back together, and today has a carpc under their driver's seat?

updated your score...you booted Casey out of 2nd place.

I can get the right angle...the one that always gets me is the fricken center of the circle....amazing how different things are harder for different people.

I was able to drag all the items on my third attempt...my score was better than the one I posted, but that would be cheating since it was my 3rd attempt...you only get two tries.

it measures your visual perception....like trying to figure out where the center of a circle is....then it tells you (with points) how far off you are.....the lower the score, the closer you were to being perfectly in the center...or finding the midpoint of a line, forming a figure that is a parallelogram, bisecting an angle, creating a right angle triangle...etc.

It gives you three chances at each one, and creates an average of how far off you were from perfect.

I figured out why the right angle one is so hard.
It's not accurate.
I did one that looked spot on, and it said I missed by 7.7
I place a post-it note on the screen to check the right-angle, and mine was much closer than the solution.

omg, it's Erica!

and, YES that is blatant cheating. When I first clicked on the link I thought, "Ah, damn it! Keith is making us do some crazy assignment that Erica gave her class!"

yeah, there is a link about it not being correct. you have to set the screen res right.
that must have been my problem as well.
