    Check your mousing skills

    Try this simple teaser and see if you can set the highest score... I can manage 22 seconds consistantly.

    Intrigued - best score at 22.532 seconds Beats my hard earned 22.153 seconds

    Such an addictive waste of time - coding gives more reward - (a tangible outcome in most cases). Sorry for the distraction to life

    I managed to get 22.602 out of it after about 20 tries but I cheated by memorizing a pattern, i.e. first I went into the bottom right corner, then moved to top left when the next block threatened me, then to the lower left, and so on. Makes it much easier since it's the same pattern each time. Obviously I quit as soon as I topped the existing high score because victory is everything.

    I just thought of something, turning your resolution down would probably make it easier. Or at least that's my theory, and I'm sticking to it.

    Wow, that's out of range for me for sure, kudos.

    As the outgoing champion, it behooves me to make a speech, but frankly I'm too disoriented from this sudden defeat, so...

    32 seconds?

    Tell me you did not make a Dialog.Message()!

    ;-)

    *I thought this was interesting and that is why I "filmed" my progress. I wanted to see how many times I would get a horrible score after a good one, if I would get aggitated after about an hour and get horrible scores... you know... the tipical blow-it-out-of-proportions gaming sort of thing.

    Code:
    Dialog.Message("Microsoft Internet Explorer", "you lasted 57.266 seconds", MB_OK, MB_ICONEXCLAMATION, MB_DEFBUTTON1);

    Exactly!

    Ha! Ha!

    But, surely... no one did that. ;-)
