Total Quiz XI.3 - Thank you for playing

"Means" is correct.

BTW, did you actually get #10 at the last minute or did you hold back the correct answer until then?

That I'll go and write harder questions for the next quiz. 

I think a tie is a fine way to conclude the quiz.

Answers to the questions of round one have been posted on the first page of this thread.

No problem. I wrote almost all of my questions the night before the quiz, so I definately missed something there. Actually, you were the only one who got the "scythian" part of the question, so at least that's good.


So how did you like the questions this time?

After the last quiz, I wanted to make a more challenging quiz. However, what I primarily had in mind was to make the quiz consist of a greater number of challenging questions while not necessarily making the challenging questions more challenging. If you noticed, compared to the last quiz, this quiz has a not of questions that were difficult to google, while in the last quiz, only 3-4 were so. In this quiz, most of the questions between 7-17 were intended to be questions that could not be simply googled using keywords if you didn't know where to look.

However, the fact that some of you got all of them right really surprised me.

But if questions on the level of No. 14 are what you like, then I guess we can try more of stuff like that in the next quiz!

In the process of doing the Total Quiz and stumbling upon not so correct answers at first, I have a couple of ideas for questions for the next total quiz.

Ahhh but.... another proper name for the area is The tigis euphrates valley. and the anceint laungage  of that district the name was Tigr which sounds like an animal andthen there is the poet christapher marlow and his work Tramelaine the great mentioning the scythian shepard who ended up ruling that area 

combinded with your way of updating scores

Lol. Well I'm only doing the interval checking that so it's more fair to people who aren't in the same time zone as I am. If I checked continuously, that would favor people near the USA east coast.

No, you're right. I'm getting bad at this. Sorry!

All scores will be re-checked thoroughly for the final score when round 2 is over. Hopefully, I'll catch all the errors if there are any more left.

i wrote euphrates for 16.

I'm writing on behalf of TheMightyPimento (a friend I got to try the quiz who is not a member). He is sure that the answer he submitted for number 4 was correct. Could you please double check it? 

Thank you
