Well, you coulda picked a darker black for us to start with ;)
About halfway through I was more-easily reading words "formed" by lint and dust on my monitor. After much deliberation, for a rating I'm giving this quiz . (Sorry, I used your last font color there).

Haha, sorry to nitpick napb but if that was my last color I'd be seeing a very readable yellow. :) Hopefully the lint and dust formed the right words for you at least!

The words get way too light way too quickly so it gets to the point halfway through I can't even see any change in color from the background. Good idea for a quiz, but either make it more readable earlier or give more time.

^ Ah, as I never made it past the 35th word, did they start to re-appear or was just the final word visible?

No, they just get lighter. I just mean it becomes a yellow color that just looks invisible because it's yellow on yellow.
Sorry NYYanks that you couldn't see anything. In my testing I found that it was pretty visible until 75% of the way through before it became extremely difficult. Sorry that your experience wasn't what you hoped for.

Nice idea for a challenge. I was thinking "this isn't TOO bad," but while staring at the words I overlooked the time. Drat! 25th %ile.

I think the correct (or at least usual) spelling is 'skilful'.

Very fun quiz skuban...I don't think I've ever tilted my monitor to quite that angle in an attempt to quickly improve contrast before, haha

The third-to-last row: I squinted, I tilted the screen, I did both... After time ran out, I eventually figured out that I was staring at my yellow answer cursor below the words.

No, of course I didn't highlight the words for the last answers. Are you crazy? That's cheating!

I'll be honest: I highlighted the last one. But only that one, I swear!

I had no trouble with the words but ran out of time well before the end! Might be because i'm playing on a touchscreen so i had to keep scrolling and it's harder to type but really defeated the point of the challenge for me as I could have done better i'll never know how many I could get

Oh my god, the last one actually says something. I finished the quiz, and only had the idea to highlight them after. I honestly thought the last one was just blank.

I'm sure that the last word is "invisible". I haven't completed it, but I'm pretty sure of that.

46/50...without cheating. It got really hard really fast, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. I'm actually amazed I got that far - when you move your head back to its normal position, the words just fade away again.

Honestly, this quiz is as much a test of typing speed, i ran out of time before i came across any word i couldn't read.

I think this should be less about how fast you can type and more about being able to get colours. Need a little more time. If I'dve known looking below my monitor helped I would've done it.

I've been reluctant to increase the time, but I think there has been enough said to convince me. I wish I could do a 2:30 timer, but it's now set at 3:00.

I did! ....except that I inverted the colors on my screen :/ It was still pretty damn hard, but I think blue is slightly easier to see than yellow

I admit to progressively tilting my laptop screen to where, at the end, it was pushed almost all the way back.
