Missed one from answering too quickly; need to remember it's no longer timed.
It's still timed:
You have 30 seconds to answer, and as the seconds tick away, the question’s point value drops from 50 all the way down to zero
You can also see your potential point score going down the longer you take to answer the question at the bottom of the screen; they just no longer give you your time in the results.

9/12- 386

It's true - I did it again and got just 12 short of the maximum number of bling things. I also scored zero but what's that when there's real money involved, huh?

9/12 for 365 flat round things.

Unlike this week's BBC quiz, in which I guessed at all 7 answers and got 5 of them right, I only guessed at 3 of these and got all 3 wrong. Oh, well... :shrug

Since the people who started posting this quiz and the other one have become total slackers, :P I've decided to take it upon myself to bump them:

10 out of 12, for 407 of those whatchamacallits. (I guess I answered more slowly than Bill did?)

Your collective inability to acknowledge this obvious truth makes you all look like fools.

Thanks LJ! :ok Please keep the flame aloft until I'm done settling into my new home/job. I'll try to get back on track in a few weeks.

7 correct answers would have been great in the other quiz, but that's all I got this time on this quiz. And only 37.714 points per correct answer. :shrug
