Addictive but irritating. Wish the pattern would change each time.
Got to 25 seconds (after about 10 minutes).

Well, I tried again this morning when I was fresh,  and I finally got to
18-seconds. It took me at least 20 tries. 

I think Steve is right, you try to find a safe spot and hang tight until
you see that your spot is going to go away, then move. The blue blocks
do start moving faster the longer you get into it.

Well, the downturn in the economy has finally hit here. It's been coming
for a while actually. We had a big layoff yesterday. Such a sad time.
People crying, etc. Thankfull that they still wanted to keep an ol' fart
like me around. Just hope we can last until things start to turn around
again.

Looking forward to a snowstorm tonight and tomorrow. Such crazy weather!

Steve

Inge,

That is addictive!  Got up to 15+ sec after 8 tries.  I wonder if the
trick is to find the various 'safe' spots, or keep moving.  Guess that I
am not 'one of the girls' 

Back to 'work' now.  Have to find work for a living!

Steve

Hi Inge!

The embedded link didn't stay with your message, so I think is the test
you were talking about:

http://members.iinet.net.au/~pontipak/redsquare.html


I could only get to 13-seconds on my second attempt. Maybe after a few
more practices I might get to 18-seconds...

I'll let you know how many attempts it takes me to get to 2-minutes (if
I can ever get that far!)

Steve

Well, geeks, lets see how guud r yo !!! Joy & Steve I expect last whole
2m with some trainin''', SMARTalec - 3.

The object of the game is to move the red block around without getting
hit by the blue blocks or touching the black walls.



Sooou....you could not wait until Friday...you must be a woman...anyway,
a typical USAF pilot can keep the red spot free for more than 18 seconds
after two attempts. Who is best on TN ?
Inge










If you can go longer than 18 seconds you are phenomenal.   It's been
said that the US Air Force uses this for fighter pilots.  They are
expected to go for at least 2 minutes.

Give it a try but be careful...it is addictive!!
