Quote (Death Penalty @ 6th July 2007 23:47) when does the next quiz/event begin? im getting excited. I'll set the next round up as soon as I can once the current round ends, as noted before, at midnight GMT Saturday Night/Sunday Morning. Of course, if my wife wants to go out tonight, I might not get it set up until later than that.  That leaves eight hours for the eleven people who have not yet taken it to try to squeeze in, and they're entitled to every bit of that time. -------------------- "To create something great, you need the means to make a lot of really bad crap." - Kevin Kelly Why aren't you shopping AmaCoN? |

(bad combination) oh and will there be some sort of 'leader board' to see who has how many points?

Quote (Death Penalty @ 7th July 2007 11:57) oh and will there be some sort of 'leader board' to see who has how many points? Sorry for the three hour delay, but all the new quizzes are now open. The number of points doesn't really matter, because each round resets you. There are four quizzes open right now; if you're in groups 5 or 6, you scored well enough to move closer to the prizes. If you're groups 9 or 10, well, you didn't score that hot in the first round, but that's no reason to say you can't continue to play, right? These quizzes will close at midnight GMT, 15 July. After that, we'll know who's going on to the last round to figure out the overall winners. -------------------- "To create something great, you need the means to make a lot of really bad crap." - Kevin Kelly Why aren't you shopping AmaCoN? |

Oh, crap, I missed the first quiz.
 Busy all week and internet is down most of the day on the last day  I did okay on the one I took, but is there any kind of a chance for those in group 9 and 10 to catch up? Does ten questions and ten staffers equate to them all being the answer once per quiz or is that something you're not disclosing? Will we get to see answers after this is done? -------------------- "I had to write four novels before they let me write comic books." -Brad Meltzer |

Crap. I got a 2. I thought I did much better that round. Guess I'm going out in the semifinals.

I scored another 5 on the second round, it did me well enough on the last attempt, I don't think it'll last me through the next round.

I got a 0 I'm just messing around with you Barrylocke, don't take it personal. I think "most" of us, not all, but most of us did, are, and will do pretty pathetic on this test.

You have to realize that the more information I give publicly, the more it can help those who have yet to take the quizzes, doesn't it? -------------------- "To create something great, you need the means to make a lot of really bad crap." - Kevin Kelly Why aren't you shopping AmaCoN? |

Ah, got a 4 this time. Completely guessing again, though. Except for Blackout by Tokyo Jihen.

Quote You scored a pretty decent 5. Climmy will now enter it into the score database. That's 9 already. I'm doing pretty good, but it seems that there are people who do better than me. -------------------- You may say I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one... |

Wow, a lot of you guys are actually being really lame. Maybe I should give prizes only to those who participate every week?

Quote Rangers51 Posted on 12th July 2007 09:34 Maybe I should give prizes only to those who participate every week? Hey, that sounds good to me. I may get only bad scores, but at least I tried, that $5 card is right down my alley.  Oh yeah, that's "4" total for me in both of them. Hey, don't laugh, there are people that haven't even taken the first or second quiz yet, so I think i'm at least somewhere in there. I might be at the bottom, but as long as i'm on there. -------------------- Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Chrsit for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost Acts 4:12 Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost |

Yeah, I was afraid I'd fall into that group. Wouldn't you know, right after joining the quiz I get hit with a couple of weeks of being totally uninspired to browse the internet. Sorry 'bout that. At least I scored a pathetic 3! -------------------- Bright light, shine down on bloody impurity! Hol...Pearl?? |

I know I'm behind on setting up the final round - surprise houseguests hung me up. We'll start tonight, and we'll run for at least a week for this final round. I'll start a new thread for it.
