gbrandon the way it was explained to me is that some people deal with narcosis by concentrating exclusively on the task at hand. For example:while at depth if you were required to due multiple tasks your overall scores would not have been as good. While you were on land you were probably not concentrating exclusively on the puzzle, you may have thoughts about the dive or maybee even talking, thus your score reflected it. if you would have been in that state of mind at your depth it may have taken you 1 + minute to due the puzzle. Thats is one possible scenario. Some people handle narcosis better than others. Physical conditioning, environment and your abilty to handle stressful situations or multitask yourself effect how you react to narcosis. Studies also show you can build a tolerence to it if you dive deep frequently. Keep in mind I am not an expert on the subject, I am only relaying what I have been taught on the subject. If any of this info is incorrect or outdated please let me know so we all can educate ourselves.
