Re: OT Eyeballing it
That didn't make me dizzy, but the more I did the worse I got.
I'll show it to my wife. We'll see if she can do better with her new eyes.

Re: OT Eyeballing it
First time through was a 4.05 overall. That's enough for me. It's Friday, I've got to go throw rocks at squirrels now.

Re: OT Eyeballing it

Government office attracts the power-mad, yet it's people who just want to be left alone to live life on their own terms who are considered dangerous.
History teaches that it's a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.

Re: OT Eyeballing it
Second try, 2.91. I totally blew one of the parallelograms ... 9.2. My eyes are starting to blur from too much computer time. It seems my best ones are the find the point equidistant from the sides of the triangle.

Re: OT Eyeballing it
Those were the hardest ones for me. Best ones were the intersecting lines.Rimfire McNutjob wrote: It seems my best ones are the find the point equidistant from the sides of the triangle.

Avg. 3.43 
...and that includes not understanding that they ALSO want you to un-bend the line you find the midpoint of, the first time, and getting a 18 on it...
