too many clicks per word. and the distance between click points. that's intentional. well the point would be to see how susceptible you are to that. They're figuring out where your…

it's intentional. therefore testing vocab isn't the point. I'm guessing it's testing our susceptibility to machine-generated compliments

this is a test for willingness to put up with the whole 100. It says something. 3 clicks per is what gives it away. and the little compliments. and that it's 100 questions
