My favorite response post (which I won't include here because it may tip someone off) is one where a guy is SOOO close to figuring it out, but doesn't realize it. If you know how the test works, them I'm sure you'll have no problem figuring out which response I'm refering to.

Through the "magic powers of ESP," your card is "removed" from the results; the card you selected is not supposed to be there in the end.
He he, thanks for clearing that up, maybe I should read a little more next time!

Took me three times through to figure it out. The ones that shock me the most are those who's reply says that the computer was wrong on more than one occasion.

wow, i guess i am not as smart as you guys, it took me ~10 tries and then I realized what a fool I was for not having realized it sooner...


update: i am reading some of the responces now, just to get a kick out of it... it's interesting that two of the posts got very close to understanding how it worked, but still didn't get it.

The guy probably deletes the posts with the right explanations. i find it hard to believe that so many people are fooled by it...
