    The Color Game. “Humans can’t reliably recall colors. This is a simple game to see how good (or bad) you are at it. We’ll show you five colors, then you’ll try and recreate them.” I scored 39/50 but got a perfect score on one color. https://dialed.gg/

            @shom @kottke Everyone I see posting about this got over 40 or very close to it. Myself included. I’m dubious of the website’s claims. If anything, the issue seems to be less remembering colours and more that their picker is subpar and unintuitive (and I say this as someone who studied graphic design).

            I am also quite dubious. I don't even understand their color picker—I'm not a graphics person—and I got 37.74/50. It would likely have been higher if I had not been interrupted during the third color.

              @kottke I got 30 out of 50. Part of the problem is (1) I don't think in terms of HSL, so adjusting to the controls was difficult, and (2) adjusting the controls didn't change the color of the image I thought I was trying to change to match the color I'd "memorized".

                @kottke I guess this is a good score?

                  Hmm..Interesting that each of us has eyes that skew one way or the other consistently.

                    46.5, but i still havent figured out how to move the sliders to get the shade(s) of brown i want. 3 of my colors were browns, and i gave up on fixing each of them rather than actually thinking they were correct.

                      @kottke 46.2/50. It’s apparently not bad, but I didn’t feel I performed so well when I saw the comparison between the two colours.

                          @kottke the act of seeking the color via hue saturation and amount of tint sort of knocks what you thought you saw out of the picture.

                          33.63 in case anyone commenting here is posting their score

                            @kottke Interesting. My particular version of color blindness didn't affect me as much as I expected. I tend to perceive colors on this device as lighter (more white) than they are, though.

                            @femme_mal @kottke Very interesting, I'm also colorblind and at first I thought it'll be a nightmare but the game/test is really funny.
                            Got a 34 and rather proud, way better than what I expected

                                        @Rayendal I’m loving how all the people in my Mastodon circle of friends are in the same ballpark score-wise. There’s a reason we’ve all found each other

                                          The Color Game. “Humans can’t reliably recall colors. This is a simple game to see how good (or bad) you are at it. We’ll show you five colors, then you’ll try and recreate them.” I scored 39/50 but got a perfect score on one color. https://dialed.gg/

                                          @kottke 45.4/50.

                                          Yep, oscillating between 44 and 46, blues and greens I tend to do a bit better than the rest.
