Topic: Total Quiz XI.4 - Thanks for playing! Posted: 20-Apr-2006 at 23:10 |
lol I hope you gave the right answer otherwise I will have to give back a point. winning isn't everything the enjoyment of being frustrated beyond belief is why we do this isn't it?

Oh it's okay, I'm not going to win or anything. And it's not worth
fighting over 12th versus 11th place . I was just paranoid that I
somehow got it wrong? Or gave the wrong answer for the quiz itself,
etc. LOL

no mila you can't answer your own question but you will get bonus points based on the number of questions you answered. they use a formula that takes 12 math degrees to figure out.

Hey - your own question you can't answer, right? I didn't actually get it wrong I hope, because I answered anyway?

A lot of people are having trouble with #8. A small hint is that the
question is written in a way so that it is deliberately
misleading.

My bet is that 14 and 15 are going to the second round! I was hoping 16 too, but decebal is too talented.

Yeah, that was a good one! We should open up a topic on the guy once the quiz is finished.

I wonder what the first post meant...
My first answer was as stupid as one answer can be... I didn't finish reading the question...
I took Carthaginians as the correct answer... ofcourse, Iceland was never breached by them...

No. it's not! And I don't have the time like other times, since I'm super busy at work.

It's just a coincidence, I recently read about that case. Please keep in mind I just answered the questions I knew from the top of my head without any research since, unfortunately, I am very busy at work and I have very little spare time.
