I got 5.5 seconds on my sixth try in 55thegame.com

Came here expecting to see more wins... I'm surprised! Oddly, I'm not seeing three digits of precision in my browser though, so maybe something isn't quite right over here.
Does everyone else picture a watch or clock hand ticking in their head, counting 1 by 1? I got 5.45ish pretty consistently. Reading other scores here, it's pretty amazing we're as good at this as humans.
As a child I was taught to count out 1 one thousand, 2 one thousand, 3 one thousand... I used a clock to set my cadence the same day that I received this instruction, and I've recalibrated a couple of times since. 5.25 first try. 5.44 second try.

I use a vocal click like a metronome, three clicks to a second. Can do it with my mouth closed, of course. Got 5.3 seconds.
I pulled up a metronome web app in another tab and set it around 23 bpm. And it still took me about an hour to hit 5.5.

I like that it makes you estimate half a second rather than a while integer. One way I manage to consistently get a close score was to count numbers as quickly as I could and see how many I would need to count to get to 5.5s and got mighty close a few times.
I had more success with counting to 11 (in half seconds) 5.502 was my best there
