How well do you know your mouse?
Today I came across quite an amusing flash game, Cursor Invisible. Just like we all have learned how to type without looking at the keyboard, this game tests our skills to click without seeing our cursor!
Check it out (Not recommended for laptop touch pad users or heaven forbid trackball mice!)
It is quite fun, and after all… I’ve been spending the majority of my life sitting behind my computer, hoping I would one day develop some uber-geek-super-power. I just wished it would have been somethig cooler than being able to click without a cursor!
(My record was 107 clicks..unfortunately after that it only starting getting worse and the bright flashes made me fear for epilepsy. I’m sure that hardcore gamers will score somewhere in the 200’s… )

Yeah, I thought I would progressively get better… but I was wrong

Oki, this is cool. I’ve had some experiences in that when playing *blush* counter strike. Like, knowning where an enemy is and without really looking making a headshot, being surprised by your own instincts of the knowlegde of the speed of your mouse and traveling distance of the cursor and etc.
The brain is such a sleek tool, I couldn’t calculate all that stuff if I tried the hardest and probably wouldn’t even be able to with a calculator. But when I am doing it subconsciously I can do all that stuff…
Btw, after 8 tries I hit 213 as a score, I clicked on a half circle on the edge of the screen, and by that clicking on the toolbar for just a milimeter

My best was 3rd try I got 247 then stopped fearing my eyes were going to bleed.
I guess shooter games have trained me well.
