It doesnt matter to me, what you choose.  :P

What if he chose to cut off you head, would it matter then? Remember to stay true to your own convictions Jambi.

I don't think this is even humanly possible. Is there someway to cheat?

Actually after your fifth try it displays a screen asking you if you want to continue or stop. That is the wrong screen, so that -is- photoshopped

and someone didn't actually get that score. :]

I guess not bad.

i had an average of 196ms but then i did a 8th trial and it was slow and tricked me with a 500ms reaction time... :(

So my end reaction average was like 240... sad days..

I suck at CRPG, mainly because of lack of familiarity with distances and timing, but i'm getting better.

189.0 lowest I got was 174 :/

I might add, this takes concentration = warband doomed to fail.

Ok, I tried again but this time I switched from the monochromatic screen I usually use for the sake of fairness to a normal color screen. My results slightly improved.

That's hearing. It's about .30 faster than visual reaction.

That's a weird rule. I don't know track & field... but can't athletes estimate the moment the gun will fire ? Like if they heard 1...2...3...*gunfire* and could guess when to start based on the intervals ?

Not surprisingly, in the ten years since 1991, false-starts have become de-rigeur in 100 m sprints. Athletes are prepared to gamble on beating the gun. Given how much margin in 100m times can be attributed to reaction time, erring on the side of a false-start is a gamble worth taking.

So it's just there so that people are less tempted to cheat ? "Cheating" on the reaction time will happen no matter what. When you do bazillions of 100m runs per year, you can waste many of them to get to your optimum record.
