Re: Quiz Contest Chat

Don't forget that everyone can take the quizzes, even non-members! So get all your friends to take them as well.

Re: Quiz Contest Chat

Nice...our host went offline about ten minutes after I launched the quiz contest...and we were down for almost two hours.

Interesting that I managed all the upgrades this weekend without any downtime, and when I'm 99% finished the server falls out.

DOS attack. And the network guys who deliver the bandwidth to our host were not on duty!

But anyway...let's discuss quizzes. Anyone manage a complete quiz yet?

Re: Quiz Contest Chat

From my statistics I can see that at all quizzes have been rated at least once. The game is on.

Re: Quiz Contest Chat

I have taken one - The general science quiz, it had a mistake - A question about the science of stars I think it was and the correct answer was Astrology

Re: Quiz Contest Chat

Your quiz was tough Jay-qu.

I should have had a pen and paper with my calculator before I took it!
think I scored less than 0

I took my own Biology quiz and missed a couple!
threw a few easy ones in,
but that is what I go through at school!! so Nah!

I'm rating my quizzes high, and yours low!
Just Kidding...

I will take BigDogs in a day or two.
I also know less about Singapore than I thought!

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.
