    The old Munsell 100-hue colour test. I don't stand a chance when doing it for real, let alone when hampered by technology

        I got a score of 3 and I knew which 3 put me off, it seemed to me the intenisty or something was a bit odd on some of them.

        not bad for 40+ but I think my trusty old premo CRT may have helped.

              I got a 17 and that's my lucky number

              I tried again and the best I could do was 15

                Out of curiosity what monitors did you guys use to view the test.

                I am using a mitsubishi Diamond Pro 2070 sb (superbright diamondtron, CRT) using its sRGB color profile. As I recall its 7+ years old

                I would think anyone using TN screen could take their test results with a pinch of salt

                      I just tried the top line of the 3 on my projector, and I swapped 2x2 squares in the center... So not bad for using a (still) uncalibrated projector on a wall surface...

                        Perfect 0 on my IPS T42p. This reminds me of assignment from university, where we had to take a copy of a picture by painter of choice, divide it into squares (mine were 7x7mm), draw squares in same size on paper and make a viewfinder with square hole. Then you would expose one square and paint the predominant hue from it on the grid by mixing colours yourself. Kind of manual pixelize.

                        If you looked at original and pixelized student painting from a distance on a well done exercise, the pictures looked the same.

                        Edit: also I've been up for 28 hours without sleep (deadlines....) and I had a glass of wine with my landlord half an hour before taking the test when I went to pay the rent.

                            29.. I think I should try harder .. though I am sure I can blame the LCD monitor too to an extend.

                              The way I did it was after getting them roughly in order I swapped each adjacent squares and compared which fits better to correct for any initial mistakes.
