I just took this reaction speed test and it turns out I'm pretty significantly under the median reaction time. Assuming the results are accurate I think this means I'm an extreme reactionary. I'm sorry to let you all down. I think you might need to ban me now kitty-cri

I'd encourage each of you to take the test too to make sure you aren't a reactionary. Self test so that we can truly weed out all of Hexbear's reactionaries once and for all.

    The real reactionary thing about this is using red and green for the test, making it more difficult for people with the most common forms of color blindness disgost

    It's okay, just get out of your chair and revolve quickly a billion times.

    It'll make you a bit dizzy, but you can be a revolutionary again.

    Holy shit.

    You need to either become a counter-strike god, an old timey gunslinger, or literally a cat. These are the best career options for you.

    my results are disappointingly average 😔

    interestingly changing my monitor refresh rate from 120Hz to 60Hz makes me slower by like 40-50ms

      That actually kinda makes sense that a slower refresh rate would slow the result down

    I got 173 ms average (92nd percentile), but I did use my gamer monitor which might count as doping

    If you take the test after seeing this post, that was a reaction. It's too late for you, regardless of the result.

    the units/magnitude fuck up on my mobile, so my first shot said 0.448 ms instead of the highly likely 448 ms.

    I shall interpret the first result at face value and assume that I am the the breath of all creation because I can mash my thumb 10 times in the span of time it takes for a single flap of a honey bee's wing.

    I'm slow but then again I'm old.

    I'm on a PC and I did the test a bunch of times and I managed to get to 208. I needed to stop so I don't didn't try to get it down to under 200. I'd feel like a lab animal trying so hard to get a tasty pellet.
