Tell me, how long did it take you to discover the mistake? ...Please, be very honest, and don't write the answer, let's see how people react to this test  ;D

Took me surprisingly long , but the first time I saw this some years ago. Now took me seconds.

For me its more attention test than smartness tes.

Since you stated it would take a long time I skipped the obvious and found it quickly.  Had you not stated it...probably I would waste a minute or 2.

The same for me. I was really focused on the numbers and sequence of colors.

I just saw the answer in the next post.  I'm guessing it would've taken a while, I always look for the obvious first, and then scan/prioritize accordingly.  The reason most ppl skim right over that probably is similar to the reason ppl can read the photo below.

I couldn't find the mitsake. I don't even know what that is. Is it like when Germans try out Japanese beer? Oktoberfest! Jetzt mit Sake! ;D


Title: Re: Let's see if Bitcointalk members are smart

I don't get it, what's the mitsake?


Title: Re: Let's see if Bitcointalk members are smart

Post by: Acidyo on July 09, 2014, 06:06:46 AM
I first thought it was the 10 that was supposed to be a 0. Then i noticed the mitsake in the grammar.


Title: Re: Let's see if Bitcointalk members are smart
Post by: st4nl3y on July 09, 2014, 06:10:47 AM
I first seen the mitsake but I kept looking at numbers and comparing colors for like few seconds. ;D

;)

The 5 was warped, I'm definitely more on the artistic side of the brain, too many people post this shit up and its always mathematics oh and the 3 and 8 are the same colour :P Was the 5 on purpose though? I noticed it's like the 6 but to me it looks wrong, 5 and 10 are the same colour and so are 4 and 9.


..... FUCK ME! LOL I was so busy focusing on the numbers that I forgot about the writing itself mitsake lol! :P just shows you how right brained I am, I only noticed the colours first, this is why I can't do maths and tests, I was completely distracted from the black text by the colours.

To be honest, I created this graphic about year and a half ago, and by accident searching my computer I came across to this image and wow it took me like 10-15 seconds decipher again where was the mistake ;D

What this is is a classic right/brain left brain test, if your getting really confused by the black text and can't distinguish it from the coloured numbers, it means your right brain is in conflict with your left brain and you're right brained, if you can only work on the black text and spot the grammar mistake it means your left brain is in conflict with the right and your left brained.

Took me 0.1 seconds to see the mistake. I was more alert when in test or quiz.

Post by: CoinsCoinsEverywhere on July 09, 2014, 08:13:47 AM
Took me maybe 10 or 15 seconds.  My first thought was that it was a trick question since nothing looked wrong with the numbers.  Then I bothered to examine the text.

Post by: rohnearner on July 09, 2014, 09:21:53 AM
The first time i saw this image was around a year ago and at that time i took some 5 seconds to point out the mitsake. This time just one look at the pic was enough.


Title: Re: Let's see if Bitcointalk members are smart
Post by: KimNam on July 09, 2014, 09:24:22 AM
2 seconds
i think no mistake in number
and i look for word and found mitsake? :P


Title: Re: Let's see if Bitcointalk members are smart
Post by: Ilsk on July 09, 2014, 10:16:46 AM
About 10 seconds, I looked at the numbers, than at the colors and at the words.


Title: Re: Let's see if Bitcointalk members are smart

Well nice mistake  ;)

Post by: ObscureBean on July 09, 2014, 02:43:44 PM
Haha  :D
It's funny how the brain 'fills in the blank' and shows you what you expect to see.
I often find myself looking for complex solutions in trick questions. This one didn't take me that long  :)

It is so glad to see that this forum is full of smart guys that can apreciate mitsakes very easily  :)

Post by: milan74 on July 10, 2014, 04:26:02 AM
Looked at the numbers for a while, didn't find it...
I thought there is no mistake, then i read the replies and then find the mistake...

Whoa not another one of those mind-blowing pictures. The last one with the two 'you' was already awful. Now this one is really screwing with us. I was looking for the mistake and couldn't find it. But then it hit me, you're an evil genius, my friend!

The "mitsake" was very easy to find.  :) I don't call it smart, I call it alert.

There's a mistake?  :p


Title: Re: Let's see if Bitcointalk members are smart
Post by: Yakamoto on July 23, 2014, 03:55:35 AM
I read through it, I knew it was going to be a trick with the words.

I took about 2 seconds to read through the bottom line, and "mitsake" was actually pretty obvious. However, it was hidden pretty well, and I probably wouldn't have gotten it if I wasn't paying more attention.

I have to laugh, though. Mistake IS the mistake!

Post by: Swordsoffreedom on July 23, 2014, 07:48:32 AM
Yawn the first time I was looking for a number
The second time it was clearly a C-----
So that leads to a certain N------
Took less time than it took to write this post lol till I realized I made the mistake  ;D

Post by: leepsteer00 on July 23, 2014, 01:40:14 PM
Took me 1-2 minute. Should get more attention looking at the "details".

Took only 2 seconds. Not sure how long it would take while watching some naked girls...  :D

As soon as I read it I saw it I don't this is a legit measure of intelligence though...more like how much attention you give.
