Did you notice it in your daily life before this test?

I got 29 first try. But I'm sure some people get much higher.

On the other hand, my hearing isn't great though. I wonder if it's related.

Got 18 on my first try. I have trouble distinguishing red and orange, and I was unaware of it until high school. We were talking about Steve Jobs wearing the same clothes every day as a sort of uniform and I made a comment comparing that to Gilligan always wearing his signature orange shirt. At that point the whole class corrected me and said that his shirt is actually red. I still see it as orange (roughly the same as the YC logo), but I make the mental correction and call it red.

The next time it came up was when I needed a bag to carry something to work, and my wife handed me her bag. I complained that it wouldn't be manly to carry a pink bag to work and she told me that the bag was actually red. To me the bag looks the same color as the pink lemonade in this picture: http://janeshealthykitchen.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Pa...

Nah. I was just being a jerk. My first attempt I got a 31, my second attempt I got 19. My third attempt I was sick of staring at colored blocks and my eyes hurt so I threw the game at 3.
