Alright, Codexers. It's time to take a test, but don't worry, no studying is necessary.

Color blindness is apparently getting more and more common in our species, so let's see how good your eyes are!

This test is actually kind of difficult, not gonna lie. My vision is wretched, but I can see colors really well apparently. Both of my brothers (whose visions are both 20/20, neither wear glasses) scored 100+, and my mother scored even higher with 125.

Wow, this is going to take longer than I expected.

scored 25... that was surprisingly harder than it looked. I could feel my eyes straining a bit

The crappy thing about colorblindness tests is that they are SUPREMELY easy to cheat on. Everyone says they have some kind of colorblindness these days and I rarely believe any of them. Having tested so many people and proven that they are not, and are just lying/cheating/mistaken, has jaded my view on colorblindness. There are patterns that you look for to prove that people are in fact color deficient (few people are actually colorblind) that are missing in someone who is adding false answers to try to look like they're colorblind.

Yeah, it took me a good 5-10 minutes to finish the whole thing. The third one really messed with me haha.

@destruct
Women tend to be less color-blind than men do. It's nice to see your brothers are boys, but you might need to have an intense conversation with your mom in the near future.

Yeah, loads of people claim to be color blind, I never believe them either, the comment I made initially was supposed to be in a sarcastic tone haha x)

lmfao.

Happy with that.

Online ColorIQ Challenge Results
Your score: 23
FM Hue Test Results
A lower score is better, with ZERO being the perfect score. The bars above show the regions of the color spectrum where hue discrimination is low.



At least arranging blocks in order of their hue isn't a major skill needed to succeed in life.

I don't think it's the kind of test you're supposed to immediately retake

(Yes, I just wanted to stay as the best...)

This could also be marketed as a test of how well your screen settings are set and how good your screen display actually is.

I wasn't trying to beat my score or anything just retook it to have an image to post. I wasn't really expecting that much of a difference between the two tests but I was surprised to see that it could vary that much. Also, it was weird that even the locations of my bars changed... the first time around they were concentrated in the blue-green area and now they are much more spread out.

I was literally just about to post something related to this. If you have a shitty screen, this test will let you know hahaha.

I've known three people who are colourblind. One was my uncle, and my aunt had to tell him when the traffic light changed from one colour to another during the day, a friend is like the uncle, and the last was a student who was unable to select a specific colour when asked. They all had problems with green and red.

[jioge]

Oh crap, I might be a woman.

[Sweeney]

Damnit xD

[Alodielle]

Damn. And here I thought I could beat any score:

[Theria]

Huh. I wasn't expecting this.

[ElBastardoVerde]

Theria wins. Love your avatar by the way, never could defeat that asshole.

[Chappy]

The first one is the hardest T_T I'm working backwards.

[jioge]

I figured out a pretty good strategy and improved my score a bit.

[Chappy]

I got 15, Idk how to put the url on here @__@ But its blue and red I have a problem with.
and I thought I was ok with colors XD

'With Zero being the perfect score'

Nice photoshop there.... -_-
