Try this. See how many apples you can catch. 50 percent is considered pretty good. 45 has been my best so far.

Holy Smokes! 72!
What I find is that I overshoot in moving the pail around.
Part of my problem is that I'm naturally left handed, but I drive the mouse right handed.
By the way, what kind of mouse are you using RB? Is this a trackball or some such?

1st = 53%
2nd = 62%, don't try to get them all, drop pattern does not seem to vary from attempt to attempt, so track the fast and slow etc.

65% first try.
The trick is not to look at the basket, only the apples.

Interesting, I am right handed but have always used the mouse left handed since day 1.
My mouse is just a standard cheap microsoft LED mouse. The laser mice will give you much better resolution and less over shooting. I grew up in video game age so my hand eye coordination is pretty good.

I got 29
I was trying to get the orange because I though it was a bonus fruit but realised I need to clean the screen.
27 the next time because I was giggling like a demented ijit

First try with touchpad on laptop: gave up half way
Next try with mouse on computer:71
Next try:84
I haven't tried any more coz I have a TFCC wrist injury.
Anyway, I used to play Quake / first person shooting games a lot, so I got used to mouse acceleration turned off.

Why is it people can get good score on these stupid games but can't thread up to a shoulder at 300 rpm ?
