Yes that does influence the test results. I tried it before, but it's
maybe a difference of 0.5 seconds. You should try to do the test again,
but without waiting for the checkmark to appear. You should persume
that when you clicked the checkmark will appear. If you waited for the
checkmark to appear your score might have been lower than your highest
possible score, but it should not make a great difference.
The score was not meant for you to wait for the checkmark to appear,
but it's nessecary to press the mouse buttons as quick as possible,
assuming that the checkmark will appear after you clicked on it. Also
don't move to much while you are clicking the button, or the checkmark
might not appear even thought you clicked on it.
Well.. I found out that some friend of mine (neurotypical one ofcourse)
has a score of between 2:500 - 3:000.
