I totally failed. Failed with flying colors.
(NOTE: If you do it, please don't ruin it for others by writing the answer on this thread. Let them try to count for themselves.)
Awareness Test
odd, I counted one extra........

I failed, too. But I've also never done what it told me not to do, so we'll call it a D+.

I didn't fail. I counted the right number of passes. That's what the test was for.
Can't say any more lest I drop a spoiler, but it is kind of a cheat, I think.
I counted correctly...
But...
I was one over....and yes, I totally missed...the thing.
I counted wrong. I think I got one over as well... Makes me wonder if it's incorrect... Maybe I'll watch it again later to check.

I counted correctly, but I missed the other part.
I missed the other thing even in the replay.
I'm blind.
Hope none of you guys ride a bike around me when I'm driving.
I counted correctly, but missed...it.
Nevertheless, the test was to count passes, so I'd like to think I passed anyway.
Count me in the "Counted correctly, but ..." camp.

I got the right number but...yeah.
I missed the other thing even in the replay.

Taz, I'm still laughing at that one.

I counted the right amount, but...yeah.
There was something similar to this on Discovery Channel's "Human Body" series...I'll try to find it on YouTube. It was hilarious.
The trick is at the end of this video: http://youtube.com/watch?v=o4Y0rwDPWlY&feature=related (the stuff about optical illusions starts halfway through, it's really interesting)

I counted right. But yeah...
Well, this is designed to trick you, so why be surprised that it did? I counted right, but there was one that was negligable that I counted but was unsure about...thus the several people who counted one off.
I saw a white girl pass it to a black guy, but I don't think that counts.
i got the number right, and while i missed the other thing, i did notice something was wrong cause i also counted too many of them.

If there ever was proof for how we see what we wanna see (aka, our reality is social construct), then this is it. Scientific method be damned. It's all creativity, isn't it?
I got it right. Easier than the Connors test.
haha oops. I counted correctly but you know.
