Online proctoring: Does anyone even pay attention?

[SpeedDemon]

My dog literally barked at me all through my last one (ProctorU proctored). That's not his usual style, but he decided he wanted to go outside about 10 minutes after I started - despite having just gone out minutes prior - and he isn't used to getting no for an answer. So while I was trapped at my dining room table, he was literally parked across the table and and barking at me every 5 minutes for the remainder of the test. While I couldn't ask him to knock it off or even look at him for fear it would trigger the proctor to assume a person was in the room with me. All I could do was stay focused on the screen, try to tune out the noise, and clean up the inevitable "accident" in the adjoining room after the exam. The proctor never said anything, but I'm sure they noticed.

I was using RPnow and I discovered a spider walking in my hand, I managed to threw it away, it returned to my hand, I threw it away again, then the spider to try to walk across the screen, one time after the other, through the middle of the screen, it managed to go to the top of the screen, and then slide down, then it tried to climb again... just to fall again. It was at least half hour of spider and I just staying still.
