05/26 - Wet and Windy Wednesday

good morning

 

Reasoning is tough lol.. I wish I could get my % ranking for reasoning on the day I took that matching test because it was awfffffffffffffffulllllllllllllllll

 

The memory games are like baby games until you hit the impossible level then just a race to die 3 times
Verbal is snore mode mturk e/i tasks without the keybinds (sad)
Reasoning makes me consider not doing this anymore

Morning All.

 

Nah only been doing this for 3-4 days now so no strong correlations yet. They improve if I retake the test during the day, especially if I put together games for the game to help solve it. And if I do pre/post medicine it's lmfao levels of improvement, yesterday I tried it 2x before meds and 1x after and one of my game scores doubled from the very first one (like 1.3x from 2nd, so a lot of initial improvement was learning the game)

Once I've done it a few weeks and have a strong baseline I'm gonna re-incorporate stuff I generally do to "improve" my brain and see if any of it has any real/measurable effect. Supposedly they track some of that as well (assuming you input lifestyle factors [sleep, gym, etc]) but I imagine 99% of the improvement will simply be mastering the individual games lol. Like there is one game where you have to move around numbered balls to put them in order, once I figured out the gimmick is to solve the most deeply nested out of place ball first my score 1.5x'd and has stayed there ever since. Most games like that will have tricks/shortcuts (same for the memory ones) that stand out and will get you to the high score baseline.

I figure it's a bit like Lumosity though where it's helpful to keep your brain "in shape" by putting it through the daily challenges, can't hurt either way it's only 5-10min/day.

Lumosity may even be better, last I looked at it it was only a phone app so I discarded it and just now noticed they have a web portal up for the games, whoops. Either way AFAIK their whole thing is that daily brain puzzles are good for long term brain health so can't be too bad to toss one of these into a routine

I'm actually a lot more interested in the opposite side, knowing if/when I start to hit mental decline. Hopefully a long way away but without high baselines to go off of it'd be impossible to tell and this trumps my daily anecdotal logs for sure.

yeah nvm honestly just perusing lumosity a little bit I'd guess it's better as long as you don't mind paying for it. They at least allow some demographic filtering

OK EVERYONE IGNORE THIS CONVO I HAVEN'T DONE DUE DILIGENCE HERE YET SINCE MOST OF THESE WERE FORCED TRASH PHONE APPS ADDING IT TO THE TODO LIST I'LL REVISIT SOME TIME IN THE FUTURE

 

I'm starting to think that all of this was just a very smart way to market Lumosity to people without them suspecting that you're sponsored by them.

 

Morning stretch.



edit: cheezits. it wasn't supposed to be that big! I picked smaller image, lol.
