What's your name and what department are you a part of? My name is Chase Douglas and I work in the business land department.
My name is Angus Inge and I'm part of the accounting department. My name is Arianna and I am a part of the talent and culture department.
My name is Elijah. I work in logistics. Okay, how much gaming experience do you have?
I'm a pretty avid gamer. I game all my spare time you could say.
Crank in 90s and Fortnite kind of thing. I was in eSports. I did some eSports stuff. I'm a casual gamer.
I continued to game consistently. I used to play like a lot of Counter Strike.
So I've done a lot of reasonably competitive shooting. I have a decent amount of gaming experience especially when I was younger
and my reaction times were faster. I played a lot of eSports and I've gotten old and my brain is mush.
I've played my fair share of Minecraft quite a few years.
I started playing GT at like age eight. So I don't know.
Probably more than I should consider I got a toddler.
Yeah, how do you think your role here has prepared you for these challenges?
That's a good question. Oh gosh.
Well, everyone here is a pretty big nerd. So I have to try to keep up with them and all the lounge lights and everything like that.
And I don't want to brag but I am the Smash Brothers champion. So hopefully there's like a wave dashing competition in this.
I think I'm going to destroy this taping challenge. Let's go. I like that confidence.
Which challenge do you think you're going to do best on? I know you're like probably average at all of them.
You're not confident? No. Remember an increasingly large board of squares.
If there's any time I've ever had to memorize and a large amount of squares, it was at LMG.
There's a lot of squares here. Which challenge do you think you're going to do the best on?
I'm looking at the aim trainer and I think that will probably be my best challenge.
Okay. You play a lot of FPS's? I don't play a lot of FPS's but I'm fast with the mouse.
Aim trainer? I'm going to be absolutely rubbish.
I don't aim train. But you play FPS games?
I do. But I don't prepare. I go in and if I get lucky, I get lucky.
Which challenge do you think you're going to do worst on? Well considering that this is a very different mouse to what I'm used to, I think maybe the targets.
I honestly feel like I'm going to do the best at the reaction time.
And then the one I'm going to do the worst at is probably the typing.
I know about this website. I haven't used it too much but I did try the typing one out like a while ago and like it was bad.
As soon as I screw up, it just ruins my whole flow and it'll be fine though.
Which department do you think is going to do the best? I think Labs.
Lab's is going to do best. Who's doing it for business team?
Chase. Okay, so not business team.
Oh logistics. Yeah, because Alex told me I get fired if I don't win so I need to win.
Okay, we'll see if you can at least win one category. Alright, cool.
You're going to have one attempt for each one of these challenges including reaction time.
There are going to be two challenges where you get three lives, the chip test and visual memory.
For reaction time, you're only going to have one attempt.
So the one time you click, that's your attempt. And ready whenever you are.
Sub 200, I'll count it.
Just barely sub 200. Okay, okay.
191. Okay, we can go to the next one whenever you're ready.
Perfect, I don't think I'll do better. Okay, that was your attempt.
Oh, that was the attempt. Gotcha, alright. How do you feel about that?
I don't, what's the average?
273, wow. Okay, maybe I'm more special than I thought.
I feel like I could do better. Can I know where that ranks amongst everybody else?
Is that good? I don't know. Nice.
Let's move on to the next one. Alright.
Sequence memory. This is the one you said you'd do the worst on, right?
Alright, let's go. Memorize the pattern. I'm like feeling nerves in my stomach.
Oh, is that it? Yeah. Okay.
Oh, this is just Simon says. Yeah, just get it wrong with the first one.
Oh, that was your attempt. Oh, okay.
Well, that was terrible. Can I try again because I didn't realize it was going to do one.
So I just like stood there waiting for it to do more.
There's so many ads on this website.
I feel like most of this video is just going to be people like quietly staring at a screen.
But just remember this like a keypad.
One, three, six, one.
One, three, six, one, six.
They give me, I don't know, they give me some easy ones.
Do we know what Chase did on this?
Oh, f**k. That was a fifth click.
That was my bad. That was my bad. That's fair.
Double ten. Oh, I'm starting to break.
Nah. What if I'm just really good at this and it takes all day?
Oh, f**k. Oh, you can't see what I'm doing.
I can. Okay.
I think this is the end.
I think it's... Let's go!
I wasn't paying attention.
I don't feel confident anymore.
F**k.
Tell you what, you're in first place for that one right now.
Let's go.
What? Ploof, what's going on here?
Is it because I'm going too fast? Maybe.
I think that's what it was because I was... Yeah, I did it again.
Yeah, I did it again. Okay, whatever. I'll just go out.
Yeah, how'd you feel about that one? Felt pretty good, I guess.
I'm doing a lot of visual work, like, day-to-day.
So I feel like I have better memory when it comes to memorizing patterns and stuff like that.
I don't know yet. Okay, I feel fine, I guess, yeah.
I zoned out for a second. That's what gets a lot of people.
They'll just look away for a second and they'll be like, aw, s**t.
Yeah. Average again. Hey, right on point with your prediction.
Do you play a lot of first-person shooters? Yeah.
Okay, so you should be good at this next one then. ARM trainer.
Okay, hit 30. Oh, this is going to be awful. All right.
You play a lot of FPSs? Not anymore. Okay.
Sorry I played FPS, like, a few months ago.
I played Valorant. I hit Plot and I just never played Plot because I got Plots pretty good.
And I don't want to brag. It's also, it's like, weird not being set.
Oh. Oh, the mouse speed.
Oh, this DPI is not what I wanted, even though I set it right.
I think this is something that I'm not going to be as good as other people at
because I don't play a lot of, like, first-person shooter games and I feel like those type of people are the ones that are good at this kind of stuff.
501. Oh. Hey, G502 is a pretty standard mouse.
You know what though? I've got ROG Chakram Core.
I don't know. It just, it feels way, way different in the head.
It's just like the CSGO one.
Oh. 504. Okay.
Hopefully not too bad. All right. 527 milliseconds per target.
It's not great, but I mean, it's not my mouse. It's not my monitor.
I think I'd do a little better at home. I'm not saying a lot better.
All right. I don't use this mouse.
I'm injured. I haven't played FPS in a long time.
I got all my keys though. 669.
That's bad. Yeah, 520. Okay.
It's okay. I have a bad habit of not actually moving my hand and just pivoting.
Oh, too slow. I'm going to blame it on the mouse.
Hey, I gave you an opportunity to change it up. I can't imagine playing on the 4000.
Yeah, I don't know how belt is that. It's crazy.
Fine. Not super confident, but I think it's, yeah, I think I did okay.
All right. Let's move on to number memory.
Come on. These are numbers. This is your domain, right?
I wish seven numbers at once.
Are you stupider than a monkey? You don't have a numpad.
So how good are you at numbers?
Not that great. I feel like when I used to have an advid online shopping addiction, I was pretty good at
memorizing my credit card numbers, but aside from that, probably not super great.
Okay.
Killing it so far. I'm actually uncomfortable because I use numpads to type numbers.
So that's my excuse for this one.
I'm rushing it. I'm rushing.
It's a good year, 1909. I don't know what happened back then, but that's how I can remember things.
If I mistype, it's all over.
What? That's not what I answered.
I'm going to try again.
Uh-oh. No. I'm still on the second.
I guess I'm a five. We're almost at phone number two.
You know, I've always been like not very confident like remembering things like this, especially like so quickly.
You think this will like help me?
We're above average.
That's all I care about.
Okay. Now it's getting difficult. Oh, the pressure of like getting fired is getting kind of bro.
I could not have chosen the worst keyboard.
Average again. So humbling.
You want to feel like your special button? No, you're not.
No, there's no point.
Oh, I pushed six twice.
The number correct. I didn't mean it.
I blame the keyboard.
That's crazy. My brain hurts.
Level 11 though. That's not bad. That was so close.
Oh, there's no way.
I'm nervous for this next one.
This is inhuman, like holy crap.
I think I got it wrong. Feeling sure.
Yeah, there we go. You got to break it up into like threes.
Your brain can only hold like three things at once. If it's like nine digits, you just like think of it as three times three instead of one times nine, but I only got to ten.
Look, that's hard. If anyone went like much higher than this, it's crazy.
I'll tell you this. You beat Chase in all three categories.
All right. Let's go Labs for the W.
How do you feel you're doing so far? Bad. The chimp test is skipping verbal memory.
Oh, shoot. Sorry, verbal memory. Yeah, you're correct.
This is the one you said you'd do the worst on, correct? Oh, boy.
So it's going to show you a sequence of words. It's either going to be a new word or it's going to be a word that it's shown you in the past.
But if they ever show urchins again, you're going to want to mark it as you've already seen it.
Okay. So I just hit new right now? New.
Whenever it's a new word that you haven't seen before. Right, right.
I'm seriously questioning if these are like real words.
Is that a word again? Misfeasors?
What does it even mean? The medalists, these are not words.
Nutted.
I'll never forget nutted.
New. New. New.
Seen. New.
Oh, God. That's too many new ones.
Oh, wow. I'm really f***ing... Oh, sh**.
That was terrible. I wish... Can I please one more time?
Okay, I'm doing it. I'm sorry. You can try again but it's not going to be easy.
That's fine, that's fine.
I'm like not even the average one.
Oh, I did horrible. That was horrible.
Cool. New.
New. Seen. Seen.
Uh-oh. Well, I just took a guess on that one.
Okay, 34. How'd you feel?
Not bad. Okay, that's her own average. I'm actually pleased with that one.
Definitely required a lot of like... Uh-oh.
Somebody got 190. Crazy.
Good news is nobody's hit. Nobody's hit, okay.
Yeah, somebody got really close though. Oh, really?
Ah.
Seen. Seen.
Skippers. Seen. No.
Oh. Yeah, that was the one. Damn.
88 woods. 92.
Oh, wow. So 76 is like... Okay.
Oof. Almost got 100. That is very good though.
Almost got 100. That was getting to be a tough one there.
Yeah. 92 is very good. Yeah, I couldn't keep it all in my head.
Oh, so common is like 30, 40, 50.
Yeah. Oh, hey, I'll take that.
That's solid. Do you think you're smarter than a chimpanzee?
No. Oh, free.
Have you seen them do the thing? Yeah, they're good. Really like show the thing and they're just like...
giving me food like they're so fast. Is it when you said you'd do the best on?
Yeah, because I want to be better than a chimp. I think that's something we can all aspire to.
Yeah. Are you smarter than a chimpanzee? Crick the squares in order according to their numbers.
I don't get it.
I almost messed up. Okay.
So I'm just clicking the numbers, I guess, in order.
Oh, shit. Okay.
Sorry, I'm not supposed to say it.
What? Oh. I have to remember it.
Yeah. Oh. Oh.
I see now.
No. I don't think I'm going to make it past this one.
That's not bad. Okay, cool. My score was eight.
I don't like this. This is not fun. Who likes this?
I forgot.
Do you remember?
I'm trying to base my twist because like... Poker base.
Okay, cool. I got it. Just making little spaghetti paths in my head.
Wait, what? No. The spaghetti got all mixed up.
Okay. Oh, this is getting hard.
Too easy. It gets hard real fast.
It's already ramping up.
Man. Monkeys got me beat.
This is not looking good for us. No.
I knew that was wrong. Okay, ten, that's not great. Okay.
Right in the chimpanzee zone.
Just kind of nerve-wracking. These are definitely starting to get very difficult.
I thought I was going to screw that one up.
This is getting tough. See, none of them are in order here.
Five, six, seven, eight, nine.
Wow. Yeah, I have no clue. Oh my God, I did one up to eleven numbers.
What is this?
No, no. That one felt easy.
I don't know if I'm going to get past eleven here.
Yeah, no. Eleven. Okay, okay.
Keep it in your head is like, especially under pressure.
One, two, three. Whoops.
Eleven. Okay. That's not bad.
Oh, did I get it? No, I lost that one.
Ugh.
That was pure luck. I didn't...
Well, I don't know. Maybe my brain remembered. I don't want to be dumber than a chimpanzee.
Four, five, six, seven. Oh, no.
Twelve. I feel like that's a bad school.
Okay. That's fine.
Twelve is pretty good, actually. For the chimptas.
You're the second highest score. Okay.
We can get some confidence back, which is good.
That's what I'm going to lose, I think. How long am I allowed to take to, like, memorize it?
I mean, theoretically you can take as long as you want.
Alright, can I take a picture? And then look at my phone later.
You can take a mental picture. That didn't help one bit.
I already lost it.
Oh, boy. Yeah, okay. Thank you.
13, I don't know. Is that, like, good? This is, like, really bringing me back to high school
when I did really bad on tests. I, like, know I'm not doing good, but it's just...
So you didn't feel confident about that? No, not at all.
Nah. Okay. Okay.
Eleven? Yeah. What did chimps get?
That's a good question. I should probably look that up. I'll take it.
It's off to the average, average vocab, so... Winnie.
Average again. I told you. You want to hear some good news?
Yeah. You're the top for this one so far.
Let's go! Okay, I can only get how many challenges is there?
Okay, there's two more. I can only get one eighth fired, then.
Or seven eighths fired.
Yeah, that's about average. Less likely below average. I'll take it.
Let's move on to visual memory, man. I don't feel like a gamer.
This is bad. You do work with a lot of visuals, right?
Yes. Okay. So it will be kind of embarrassing if I don't do get at this.
So this one, again, you have three lives.
You only lose a life if you get three of the tiles wrong on one of them.
That will probably make more sense if you take it. Yeah, you see it.
Okay. There's no time limit to flip over the squares, though.
This 13th might go here. Yeah.
What? Oh, yeah. Oh!
Easy. This feels like an iPhone game.
Oh, damn. They really didn't give you that much time, eh?
What was that? What? Wait, there's more?
This is not fair. This is not fair.
Oh, okay. I can definitely see this getting really hard, really fast.
I'm speaking of really hard, really fast. It's like Wordle.
Oh, shoot. Damn it.
I'm like almost double-clicking.
Oh, no. Oh.
Is it all three?
Uh-oh, it's getting a lot more complex.
Oh, no, I meant to...
It's too fast.
Okay. Okay. There's one more.
Oh, no. No!
No!
What? What?
Okay. How do you feel about that? That was good.
Ah, this one, I f***ed. I don't know where they were. Yeah.
This is... Yeah, this one's f***ed.
Oh, that was lucky. Oh, boy.
Yeah. Okay. 11.
Oh, right in the middle. I tried that approach of like, go quick, so I hopefully remember it.
It's not working. I'm so close.
11. How do you feel about that? I don't feel good about any of this, to be honest.
I played in that one. Yeah. Okay.
11. Okay. 11.
To be honest, I played enough esports to know when I'm having a good day and a bad day,
and I knew today was going to be like a day.
I thought whoever came in here...
He distracted me.
This is my own teammate. He's bogging me down, bro.
I lost two lives because of you.
Excuse his excuses. Oh, man. I'm just going to use my phone.
Oh, my God. Okay.
I just want to say I got all these.
Look at this. So easy.
Ah, s***. Ah, s***.
Oh, man.
Ah, shoot.
No.
Absolute clutch. I think 12 might be it.
S***.
Alright. Level 12. Level 12.
S***.
S***. 13.
Huh? Huh?
Hey. 13 was your goal, right?
I'm going to hire Glenn. Glenn guy, man.
Oh, God. I lost it.
Ah, dang it. 14. Okay.
How's that? You are number one for this one as well.
I mean, it's only been like three people so far.
Last but not least. Typing.
How are you feeling so far? Awful.
You know... Why would you...
Now, your bread and butter. Keyword test?
Yes. Typing. Everyone's going to think I'm going to absolutely kill it
because I'm a programmer so I type all day, but yeah, like I said before, it's not going to be good.
Okay, so for this one, it's going to take into consideration both speed and accuracy.
Basically, if you get 90% right, it's going to multiply your final speed by .9.
You can go back and correct your mistakes, which will help your accuracy score,
but it will definitely affect your speed. So if you want to just keep going...
My hands are so sweaty. This is so stressful.
You don't feel confident in your typing? I can type quickly, but I don't type very accurately.
Spellcheck is my friend. One thing I will say, I don't know this keyboard.
I don't know these switches. I'm slightly better on my home keyboard,
but you know what, that's okay. Sure. And this is cap sensitive?
Yeah. Okay. Aw, it's an avatar.
No. I'm starting over. No, you can't.
Huh?
How long is this minute?
I guess I could just allow mistakes to happen.
But...
What is happening?
Okay. Cool. How do you feel about that?
Fine. I feel like I did my best.
I don't know. I think I did all right. You know, perfectly adequate.
61, how do you feel about that? Not great.
I know, again, I could do better. I wish I had warmed up and done this right, but...
Hey, you're lucky we didn't count the seven from the first up.
94. 94? Is that fast?
And I think I only missed two letters. You're the fastest by a pretty large margin.
Wow, okay. Yeah. So you're right.
Yeah, there you go. Programmer buff, yeah? Yeah, I guess.
I'm happy to report that you're number one in typing right now.
Let's go. And I knew that if there was going to be one...
Give me this one. Nobody liked the keyboard, so...
Dude, it fucking sucks. Why do you... The switches are garbage.
Well, that was the kind of point. It was just getting people out of their comfort zone.
I get it. How do you feel like you did? There's the bell curve, right?
Yeah. And there's the middle. I had a really low one, so I'm either on the middle or just above it, but I'm really in
the middle. Maybe average for us.
Or maybe slightly above average compared to like the statistical.
Better than socials. Better than busy land.
My results will be slightly below average.
I think at work here we have pretty smart and with it quick people.
And so I expect my disappointing results to be especially disappointing when put against
the bell curve we have at LMG. I think overall I did pretty average, which is fair.
Most of those scores, if I scroll down, it's pretty average.
Do you want to know where you rank so far? I want to know if I beat the two people so far, because Ploof has done it yet, right?
Yeah, socials haven't done it either. Oh, really? Okay.
Busnyland? Already dead last. I hope it did last.
I'm not going to lie. They're pretty down there. Woo!
Overall, I think I did pretty good.
I think I did the lab's proud. To be honest, I just don't want to be last.
That's the only thing. I hope I can do the talent and culture department justice.
Fairly average, which is neither good or bad.
Is that a pretty good approximation?
I don't think I'm that good at any of these tests per se, but I always like to think I
put my best effort into them. Shimp one, I feel like I did not too bad.
I feel like I'd do better than one shimp who did it for the very first time.
I feel like I would crush every shimp that tried that once.
So, on some of them, I think I did very well, but I think my bad ones were pretty darn bad.
So, fingers crossed, everyone else gets stage fright.
You think you're going to get fired? I don't know.
I think it depends on the next athletes that come in and how they stack up against me.
Athletes, I like that word. Dude, what do you think we are here?
We're of class, right? Ploof. What's up?
Congratulations on having the fastest fingies.
I'll take it. Hey.
You think all those typing tests finally paid off?
No, because this is worthless. But you know what?
I appreciate you, Arthur. Paid off isn't quite the right word.
Right way to put it, but I'll proudly display this on my desk.
You have done the logistics team proud.
Oh, is this the chimp test and the visual memory?
Okay, but the important thing is you also get a banana.
Nice. I missed lunch today.
So good. How does it feel to be smarter than a chimpanzee?
Is that what that means I'm smarter than a chimp?
Pretty good. I don't know.
I opened the banana the correct way, I guess, so that makes me happy.
Chimps open it from like this end. And then they hold it from the stem.
So I'm proud. Want to know another thing?
What's up? You won the most categories.
Oh, let's go. I went two and that was the most.
There was eight challenges. I'll take it.
You're tied with one other person. Oh, okay. So someone else won too.
Yes. All right. I'll take it though.
Oh, that's pretty sick. David, I would like to present you with the trophy for the fastest reaction time.
What? What do I get?
We can share it. Sorry, Jonathan.
How do you feel? I felt the joy and gratefulness and appreciation so quickly, but it passed because my cat-like reflexes.
So now I feel nothing. Yo, what's good?
Mr. Danes. Congrats on being the aiming champ.
Did I? Yeah, you did. The aiming champ?
Seriously? Mm-hmm. 500 milliseconds and I was the top?
I was surprised too. Nobody really did that crate on it.
I told you. I told you that mouse.
You got to let people bring in their own gear. Also, you were the second highest average rank out of everybody.
Who beat me? Bell. Oh, I'm coming for you.
Mr. Belmont.
Howdy. I have some trophies for you.
Oh, my goodness.
Verbal virtuoso.
Ironic, sequential star.
Wow. I'm a winner.
You were like, I was really impressed how many words you remembered.
97? Honestly, that's all the words I just happened to know.
That's why I had to stop at 97. But that's not it.
You also had the highest average ranking out of anybody.
Let's go peak human performance right here, baby.
How do you feel? I feel lucky.
And I just want to thank all the people who helped me get here on the way.
Couldn't have done it without you. It'll go right next to my Smash Brothers trophy.
Arjun. Yo. Congratulations.
Hey, I won. You did the social team proud.
Hey, I won out of the Aussies.
Sorry, Alvin. It's funny because I think the number one was the one Alvin did the best on too, right?
That's right. You were saying, but you know, it just had to be right, you know.
Oh, yeah. Arjun has something to show you.
So I've been told to go that I won the numbers.
Hey. Numbers. You won the numbers thing.
Thank you. So does this officially make me the better Arzio?
I'm just happy that Arzio won something.
He's being so nice about it. Now I feel like sh** compared to him.
What do you feel bad about it? No, all good.
One for one for Australia. Thank you. Let's go.
