    Robert, it took several tries because the one sheep head bob kept making me flinch.

    I think I got lucky, I will have to try a few more times to see if I even come close.

    Edit: four more tries and best I hit was 0.1756

    the key a is light touch, don't tighten up your hand - same technique as guitar playing and golf, except I suck at both of those.

    Default fun and stupid! :)

    Are you citing your best single-sheep-times(!), or the average?
    Didn't think I was going to get under 0.18, but then a little focused effort on my 10-20th round just gave me an 0.1516 average - still only 'Rocketing rabbit' though...

    Same here, let us slowpokers blame it all on the crappy hardware we have. I can't get under 0.2 either.

    It's the MAC, just not as fast as a Dell

    I'm completely wireless and I had a good score - If I'm not mistaken, and I know I'm not, I'm older than you and Spud. The old man kicked some butt!!!

    .2012 my best so far tonight.

    Who bumped this back up? Simon, it was you.:

    Simon, we are doing best scores (don't care about how many tries), so what was your best?

    0.2218 - so when does the fair part come into play?

    Edit: I found you can cheat without getting a ticket.

    Right, and now I sort of do it again... :
    My best for a single sheep was just under 0.12...
    I seems to me the traffic light is more fair = far more consistent and reproducible: The 15 or so tries where I felt 'that was just right' all returned 0.187 or 0.188 sec...
    And I think the sound that comes with a running sheep makes it possible to react faster, whereas a sheep running in the bottom third of the screen is partly hidden and therefore harder.
