The endurance test
A hundred seconds is the longest timer on the site. Nobody holds a sprint that long, so this is a test of pacing and of how relaxed you can keep your hand. Your 100-second CPS will be lower than your short-test scores; that is expected.
One nice property of the length: your total clicks divided by 100 is your CPS, so 650 clicks is 6.50 CPS.
Clicks needed on a 100-second test
| Average | Clicks in 100 s | Per minute |
|---|---|---|
| 5 CPS | 500 clicks | 300 CPM |
| 7 CPS | 700 clicks | 420 CPM |
| 10 CPS | 1000 clicks | 600 CPM |
| 13 CPS | 1300 clicks | 780 CPM |
How to pace 100 seconds
- Start well below your 10-second speed. Aim for a pace that feels easy for the first 20 seconds.
- Watch the time, not the counter. The time and live CPS in the bar above the click box are enough; looking at the count only makes you speed up.
- Switch fingers only if you practise it. Swapping from index to middle finger can rest a tired finger, but it costs clicks if it is new to you.
Long all-out clicking can strain the wrist and forearm. Stop if anything aches, and do not run this test back to back.
