    2.4?!! How slow are you man? :) Or did you jump the gun once or twice and shoot before the sheep started to run?
    First try my average time for the five sheep was 0.3104. Second try 0.2032. Next several tries all between .22something and .23something

    .0828. super-charged cheetah.
    I gave up watching for movement, since they kept sending sheep from behind the bushes, and just listened for the runners. Yep. I need a life.

    Rocketing rabbit, but I did it with my eyes closed.
    Like Killick, I waited to hear the noise of them running.

    At first I thought you had to click on the actual sheep, and I wondered how on earth you guys were doing this.

    My best individual time so far is .061 ... average is .124.

    EDIT: I should say my BEST average is .124. My average average is probably about .155 to .165.
