    Honestly, all you actually would need to do is just go to the steam survey, check what the most common hardware is.

    Cuz all you got to do is test against that. As if your response time for example is in the top 10% of people. When your baseline is the most common hardware available then you’re in at worst the top 10% of people. Reaction speed changes depending on task just as much as it does on hardware.

    Like personally, I take a reaction test using the most common steam hardware and I’m looking at about 150 milliseconds response time by doing it on my normal hardware which is many times faster. In refresh rate it only shaves like two milliseconds off average and it fluctuates just as much. Like two milliseconds off average and it fluctuates just as much.

    I even have a little like toy thing that I picked up one day years ago that tests reaction time using a mechanical device. Testing it. It’s within about 5 to 10 milliseconds of variation off of what most digital online tests that I can find.

    And it within margin of error shows exactly the same amount of reaction speed that the online tests show.

    So they’re accurate enough at least within a handful of milliseconds.

    The toys basically just a taser and two people grip a thing. Whoever grips and clicks the thing faster doesn’t get tased its rather fun.

    I almost always win even against my younger cousins and step Brothers who are as young as 12. So my 35 year old ass still has it!

    Just don’t ask me to have any amount of reaction speed with my legs. Probably try and kick something. I will miss it. By a mile. 3 hours after you threw it.
