The Koala

Portrait of a Koala

Koalas sleep for around 18 to 22 hours a day, and when they are awake they move with the serene confidence of someone who has nowhere to be. Your 320-399 millisecond average has that same peaceful energy. It is slower than the typical online score, but not dramatically: a third of a second is still faster than you can say "wait, go?".

Scores in this tier are very often about circumstances, not ability. Tiredness, a wireless mouse, a phone in power-saving mode, a slow display or simply reading a text between rounds can all add tens of milliseconds. And let's be honest: you may have been doing this test with one hand while holding a snack in the other.

Strengths

• Calm under pressure, rarely jumps the gun
• Patient and steady rather than jittery
• Great at slow, careful tasks that need precision
• Plenty of easy wins available for improvement

Blind spots

• Slow to switch from relaxed to alert
• Reaction drops a lot when you are tired
• May have been multitasking during the test

Where it shows up

You are the friend who stays relaxed while everyone else panics, which is genuinely useful. In fast games you might lose the first exchange, but you win the long, thoughtful matches. Try the test again after a good night's sleep, on a laptop or desktop with a wired mouse, and see how much of your Koala score was really the hardware.
