What's your feeling when you failed to point out a track in Calibration Movies or click on it which have no track?

I regret that there is only a one-time pass of the faulting image when I make a wrong judgement. I need to study the bad decision closely.
Memory for the image is not a substitute. We should perhaps have had a second viewing of the judged image for adjusting our decision-making.
Seeing the difficulty in viewing some images frees me from any feelings in the matter- I am ambitious to correct the bad calls, and work forward. :shock:
Together our field of view is greater. Sincerely, Dana Johnson - danajohnson0

I have just failed this calibration movie, clicked on this littl particle what goes below the surfase.

What i think about it? "Allright, now i need just 700 no-track cali movie to watch to get my specificity back to 100% ;)"

Well, two thing...
1) you cant post a calibration movie.
2) Technically, you can never get back to 100%

I obviously feel gutted when I miss a calibration movie, but I also feel glad it's prompted me to pay more attention. Who can honestly say that their attention and focus remains constant on every single movie? I can't. So the calibration movies are doing their job, at least for me.

Why not? I think that percentage is rounded, and real 99.95% will be 100% on my VM page, isnt it?

Update: Just looked at the "post your stats" thread.. seemd that percentage not rounding.. well, 99% would be enough for me ;)

Totally and utterly ticked off, since you ask. The first 9 were different. Then I went ages and ages. And they got me on a "bad focus". I notice that I say "they" now... But my music keeps jumping and stopping as well - still pretty offticking, whatever


Edited by Nikita to modify to a more approprate use of the english language. Oops! This forum does have minors in it!

:oops: It wasn't such a bad word really. But it had only just happened and I was jolly well fed up about it.
I like Nikita's euphemism - it sounds good and [in English English], to be "ticked off" is to be chastised.
But I'm OK now. :D :? :( :o :D
