The three cups

Cup 1: Ink & Word

Ink & Word, Medium: keeping your eye on the ink while the word pulls the other way. Forty-five seconds with 6 colours; the first card is the word ‘blue’ in yellow ink.

Tip: Keep a finger hovering over the middle of the buttons so every colour is the same short move away.

Cup 2: Reaction Time

Reaction Time, Left or right: waiting calmly and moving the instant something changes. The first eight waits fall between 1.64 and 2.89 s.

Tip: Look at the panel, not at your finger. The change is easier to catch straight on.

Cup 3: Light Trail

Light Trail, Easy: keeping an order of shapes and notes. The first trail is 3 steps long on 4 panels; each panel glows for 0.52 s.

Tip: On the nine-panel board, note where the trail starts and where it ends; the middle is easier to rebuild around fixed ends.

Every cup in set #105 has a fixed seed, so anyone who opens this set gets the same patterns, trails, sums and waits. Your own ticks and results are kept only in this browser.
