3.48, though I got 8 a couple of times. I averaged 1.4 on the last three types, the parallelogram, midpoint, and triangle centre killed me.

4.65 over the three rounds. The Parallelogram and Convergence were by far the hardest for me.

4.7. It was strange how I was consistently good on some and consistently terrible on others.

3.83 is my best so far, but that's after I tried it a couple of times.

Usually in the high 5's with this game.

I find it weird that the score depends on the shape. With some, being off by a few pixels gives you a score of 3 or 4... with others, the same offset gives you a 9 or 10. WTF?

Yeah. the games definition of "units" is pretty vague. Sometimes I'd be millimeters off and score a 4 and sometimes I'd be almost a centimeter off and score a 2.
