Didn't shorten the url to even a half. Was it really necessary to use

- Isn't this not also a monitor test?
- I scored 4. is that usual for my age? i.e. can I get a histogram of my
age group?

pro: even a small reduction reduces the chance of getting line wrapped.
(though that does not really apply in this case, as jim put it on a new
line)
contra: we don't know what to expect. We have to trust Jim that the info
he (or any imposter) gives is correct and we don't get redirected to
pr0n or trojans. (though that does not really apply in this case, as
jim did not give any information on what it was about)

Sorry, I liked the simple idea of it mostly, so I stuck with a minimal
approach

Probably, at least if you aren't color blind.

I scored 20.
It would have been nice to see a histogram, or at least an average,
the highest score was 1300+, so it doesn't really give you an idea
of how others have done.

I don't quite follow your logic there but maybe. Apparently the test is
seeking some threshold level of gradation for perception. Or maybe just
color blindness. I'm guessing that mental inconsistencies become a
factor before monitor inconsistencies but what do I know? Notice that
you are asked to make 21 discriminations, the same as we do in the irtc
and tc-rtc.

Easy to guess this is collecting data for some purpose and the age
groups/gender are part of it. Over several tries my score actually
ranged from 0 to 20. Doing nothing I got scores ranging from 900's to
1100's

simple, if you monitor translation from RGB value to color is non linear
there are certain colors that are harder to distinguish. As we all know
here, there is such a thing as gamma correction, which is different for
different monitors, and IIRC different for Mac vs PC.

Evolutionary the retina was brain tissue, somehow I don't think this is
what you meant.

I wish trtc and tc-rtc would be a one dimensional as this one.

4 is a very good score, 0 is perfect, 1100 is a bad one and 1600+ is horrible.
In that test, LOW is good.

I scored 4.
I agree one can't really see if his performance is good.

At 2nd try with a little more attention I score 0
That means as other senses, color vision is improved by training :-)

4 is prety good. The lower your score, the better.

I understood that, thank you :)
But that does not say where I am on the scores distribution for my age
range.
BTW the last try gave a score of 11 while I was certain to be fairly good
:-/
Certainly time to go to bed ^^

You are right, I meant that I could mentally influence my perception.
To a limited extent, if I expected a certain tile would fall in a
certain place my eye would confirm my expectation.

This morning after a good night, I scored 21, much worse than yesterday
night.
But now sun is shining (though not directly on my CRT) and I suspect this
makes hues less easy to discriminate.

Do I spot a trend that the younger people score higher? ;)

Maybe the youngers are not as patient as ther elders. Or just say, now, it's
good enough. Or don't bother to make the effort needed.
