[UPDATE] Test 3 - Dexterity and Attentiveness Evaluation Haven't tried it yet, just sayin' it's up.
EDIT: Gave it a shot... seems possible except I'm drunkish and not doing too well. Might blow a hole in the "cheating is the key" theories.
EDIT: Best score is 41 so far.

In looking for the cheat for this test I noticed two things. First the obvious which is a video added to the site that seems to be hacked by the "black Swan". In doing some freeze frames I was able to makeout a few frames with numbers and with letters, but none that seem to fit together. Secondly I thought it was odd that there was no e-mail sent out, so I pulled up my last e-mail and changed the date in the web address line to today's date, and then again to tomorrow's with no luck. When I tried the fourth however it asked me for a password in order to view what was on that page. So it seems like something else will be released then or we'll need that. Just a couple things I found and thought I should share, hope these aren't duplicates.

I think the group names will give us a hint to the cheat. I'm in Enceladus.

As am I. I'm wondering if this has a cheat, I was able to get up to 63% without one.

My group is Tityos. It looks like that giants theory was right.

Group Antaeus, 41 so far. This is actually pretty fun. It reminds me of operation, um...with moving, spherical organs. Does it anyone else?
EDIT: You know, if there is a cheat, I'm betting it would slow the spheres down to a crawl or something, so basically you would have to be a drunken chimp not to be able to succeed at it.

reposting from the other thread "Video announcement"
going through the video frame by frame, I've found 40 60 B P M
nothing for 4060 bpm, but "40-60 bpm" is largo or lento speed (tempo) in music. But there are a few other instances of "40-60 bpm" rates...
beats per minute. related to the test, or not?
the test does have a 'beat' in the background sound...
ETA: squeeee!
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
type lento while the game is on - the balls slow down. but only for a period of time. keep typing it to hit 100 score!

Good work thebruce!
By my estimate each slow down lasts 20 seconds.
