    The idea being:

    Genuine went from to

    Fake went from to
    That's what I did too, and I got the same result.

    17/20. I missed the 1, 3 and 4 because I wasn't really paying attention. My wife was leaving for the store and talking to me. Once I actually paid attention it was fairly easy.

    16 out of 20, the eyes are a great give away & unsurprisingly all the ones I got wrong were kinda cross eyed

    I think that was a woman...albeit a very odd looking one.

    Now I know I should have went with another method. I chose both middle options for the pre-test questions, but I don't know if the answers to those effect anything.
    I'm one of those people who quickly stop smiling. Even if it's a genuine smile I go from default face very quickly because my cheeks get easily tired. I got 18/20 and was looking at the crows feet and the squint of their eyes.

    I think I was too pessimistic.

    I got 13/20.

    I got 16, though I recall doing this before, quite poorly I might add, about a year ago and had some idea of what to look for. I seem to recall last time I got around 50%. Given that that's about what random chance would dictate I'd say I'm not really that good at all.

    17/20, missed on #1, #4 and #17. Not sure if I'd have scored any differently had I spent more time analysing them(I just quickly made a decision as soon as they smiled), but hey, it's good enough for me. I tend to watch the eyes and the cheeks more than anything. Also, I wonder if anyone can spot my fake smile, because I take such things into account...

    BoB we need two pictures of you: One where you are fake-smiling and one where you are really smiling. Then we can find out.

    If you look closely you can see the smile is a fake.

    17 out of 20. Looking at everything but the mouth itself is the key to detecting fake smiles.

    I scored 19/20. I thought I'd do well, but it's nice to know I was correct.
