Correlation between reaction time and crpg success

[Siiem]

It doesnt matter to me, what you choose. 

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

And Kafein, GO!

Too bad it doesnt record all those clicks below 100ms on the final scoreboard. Only the times where i derped a little

But hey, i just woke. its 4.30 ffs but still fair 30 clicks below 100ms and 24 above 100ms for the record so not too shabby. Last one i guess i got a lucky click when my finger started twitching. lol 31 MS.. so i decided to stop.

Just had to beat that .us guy, if only by 006.0 ms 

But yeah, in the end ill have to agree with Phazh. But still reaction time is a small factor in total awareness.

Sorry to break your heart, but I just stole that record.

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

Like my score, teehee

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

What did I do wrong

Reaction time explained:

Athletics (track and field)

In track and field sprints, the sport's governing body, the IAAF, has a rule that if the athlete moves within 0.10 seconds after the gun has fired the athlete has false started. This figure is based on tests that show the human brain cannot hear and process the information from the start sound in under 0.10 seconds.

208.8

I guess not bad.

[engurrand]

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.

[Kafein]

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 ?

[Xant]

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.

Not the best reaction timer app in my oppinion.

APM > REACTION

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.
