Why 30-Second and 60-Second Scores Stay Separate
Thirty and sixty seconds differ by more than time. A 30-second round is strongly shaped by opening pace; a 60-second round exposes attention drift, rising hand tension and whether the movement can repeat.
Thirty seconds is a short push
In a short round, the opening ten seconds carry a large share of the result. After a good warm-up, 30 seconds can produce a high score without proving that the pace lasts for a full minute.
Use 30 seconds for startup speed, rhythm work and short blocks after warming up.
Sixty seconds exposes sustained issues
With more time, wandering attention, tighter fingers and lazy movement become visible. A player can start fast and lose accuracy later; that is information that 60 seconds adds.
If 60-second average reaction remains stable while later accuracy falls, address fatigue and rushed shots before focusing on the total score.
How AimTrainer separates them
Global rankings, daily challenges and recent performance are calculated separately by drill and by 30 or 60 seconds. Global top 1%, personal best and trends should always be read inside the same drill and duration.
How to use both durations
- Warm-up and rhythm: mostly 30 seconds.
- Consistency checks: add one or two 60-second rounds for each focus drill.
- Testing a setting: hold one duration fixed.
- Review: compare only the same duration over the last 7 or 30 days.
Do not convert one into the other
A 60-second score is not a 30-second score times two, and the reverse is not a clean division. Spawns, reactions, mistakes and fatigue are not linear. Keeping them separate shows where burst output and endurance actually sit.
