11.3 still my record, usually I am dead before the 2 sec mark. This is a stupid test. The geography quiz provides much more insight into someone's cognitive capabilities.

Geography quiz ??...ooo where's that ?

Whenever I click I see such a message. Did they place a parrot inside software? Or I misclick ? Pretty funny.
2nd message :

3rd attempt (I got a printscreen):

Omg, wise and neat test.

Last attempt : (I got another printscreen and an external mouse to my laptop)
You survived 11.141 seconds!

Thanks, I really enjoyed.

Interesting. Following the suggestions above I switched from Firefox to IE and improved my score from a fraction of a second to 4+ seconds. So does this mean IE is good (I last longer) or bad (the blue guys move slower)? With Firefox I basically have no chance to move before being caught. With IE I think I could improve with a little practice.

Really it's all the mouse's fault. Or as the old song says, Blame it on the Rolling Stones.

After several tries I got to +- 20sec, but my machine is not a modern jet, more... something like Messerschmitt 109 B)

Old men shouldn't play this game

I did it 5 times and never last even a half a second.

OH well back to backgammon and bridge for me.

Have you tried the airforce test yet?
