i got a 39 and would have had higher had i not second-guessed some of my first impulses

Jetée · 11-06-2007, 04:08 PM

I scored a 34, the test claiming I'm a whiz, whereas in reality, I guessed on every single question save for a Zeppelin question and a Clash one. I could've gotten either one wrong, though.

Harry Cox · 11-06-2007, 07:12 PM

48 for me and I guessed on maybe 25%.

Sticky · 11-07-2007, 10:34 AM

29 guessed a lot of them

Martian · 11-07-2007, 03:35 PM

49 here. I had a bunch of educated guesses that proved right and a few wild-ass guesses that I got lucky on. Seriously now, who knows the order Bob Marley's children were born in? Or how many umlauts Abba has collectively in their names?

Also, did anyone else have to sit in front of their computer singing Sloop John B to figure that one out?

AVoiceOfReason · 11-08-2007, 12:58 PM

43 for me, and a LOT of guesses on the stuff in the 90's and 00's.

But then, I don't really care enough about much of that era to have studied up on it as I did the 60's and 70's.

I got a 28.. I suck. Guessed at most of them.

I did know the umlaut question though

Daniel_ · 11-08-2007, 03:35 PM

I got 36. I only guessed a few.
