How good are you at eyeballing?

The eyeballing game

I had to post this, after I did the hue test from another post.

Enjoy!

Kinda fun. I scored just over 6. No wonder I have crooked horizons!

2.37

for me, the hardest are the circle midpoint and finding the equal distance position within the triangles.

midpoints and triangle bisections are the easiest for me, even got 0.0 on some.

Average error: 3.46 (lower is better)

Worst for me would be the Triangle Centre category

3, without my glasses. I guess those years of shooting paid off in some perverse way.

BTW: I'm much better at eyeballing when there are 'curves' involved - just ask my wife.

2.97. Messed up one angle bisection badly (6.8 in comparison to 0.1 & 0.9 on the other two attempts). I'll only try again when I lose my bronze medal to someone else.
