I seem to have the lowest score yet, at 17/26. I recognized most but not all of the tunes. There were many I wasn't sure about, and if I took it again I'd probably give different answers.
One time I tried to tune a ukulele, using a sound played from a laptop as a reference note, but I couldn't even tell whether the string pitch was higher or lower than the reference.
And yet - I rarely play, but I own an ocarina, and when I get a note wrong, it's usually quite obvious to me.
I wish they'd give me a more precise breakdown of my score. Did I get more false positives or false negatives?
- philh 11y agoHere are my answers - Y correct, N incorrect. 9/26 Y, 17/26 N, makes me guess I had too many N, which is already what I was expecting. Does anyone feel like marking me? (Example) - Y 1 Y * 2 Y 3 Y * 4 N 5 Y 6 N * 7 N 8 Y 9 N 10 Y * 11 N 12 N * 13 N 14 N 15 Y 16 N 17 N 18 Y 19 N 20 N 21 N 22 N * 23 Y * 24 N 25 N * 26 Y * edit - starred the ones I got wrong. My prediction was wrong too. 5 false Ys, 4 false Ns.
