Lyne is last?!?

Really? This has to be a technical glitch of some sort.

CQRanking.com, you complete me.

Serious glitch... 0 points?

Damn i just ran out of time

so missed answering the last question.. damn it

by CycleGirl on Nov 10, 2008 2:26 AM EST   0 recs

what?!?!

I’m not last.. But serious.. Which is the middle colour of the Wordl Champions shirt or thing or whatever.. Are questions that are beyond my knowledge.. Is just guessing

Useless information????

TRIVIA USELESS…!?!?! Well I guess your right. However my questions (hopefully) will have some lesser degree of “uselessness” than the middle color of the WC jersey. Keep the faith…

by CCB-VW on Nov 10, 2008 10:42 AM EST to parent up   0 recs

No knowledge is totally useless ;-)

And anyway, I like useless information. I love quizzes and am almost embarrassingly competitive in every pub quiz I enter. But even though I’m not going to win your quiz it’s a lot of fun; keep up the good work! Oh, and can we have a question about Bennati at some point? Many of us would appreciate that ;-)

by Albertina on Nov 10, 2008 11:27 AM EST to parent up   0 recs

Imagine a whole Monday dedicated to Benna questions....

I’m sure you’d get 15 points and probably even some bonus points for extra knowledge :)

by amarone on Nov 10, 2008 4:42 PM EST to parent up   0 recs

Oh I'm sure.

My specialist round :-)

by Albertina on Nov 10, 2008 5:24 PM EST to parent up   0 recs

Ok never mind..

Also suck on the knowledge questions

by Frinking on Nov 10, 2008 1:36 PM EST to parent up   0 recs

Booooo!

13 last week, 8 this week. I’m on a slippery slope :-(

by Albertina on Nov 10, 2008 8:49 AM EST   0 recs

A Ten!

I got a ten this week! Woohoo!

by bethie on Nov 10, 2008 10:17 AM EST   0 recs

I'm woefully bad at this!

But I’m up to 8 this week from 5 last week…
Any idea how this thing is scored?

by cg. on Nov 10, 2008 11:02 AM EST   0 recs

Each quiz is 15 points...

I’m not sure this answers your question but take your aveage and apply it to the table below:

12 to 15: Pro-cycling Expert
9 to 11: Apprentice Historian
3 to 8: Novice Historian
0 to 2: Pro-cycling Beginner

I aim to start out okay and then drop back for the

lantern the second we hit the hills. :-)

Now that I have taken it... I realize just how much I suck.

At least you saw the stars, once

some of us seem to have already settled into a winter of mediocrity.

by Monty. on Nov 11, 2008 2:50 PM EST to parent up   0 recs

where's the short bus?

Gah, this thingy makes my head hurt.

5 points on Quiz 1, 11 points on Quiz 2.

by gavia on Nov 10, 2008 12:12 PM EST   0 recs

OK this time got 9

sliding already…..

by Veloki on Nov 10, 2008 1:33 PM EST   0 recs

It says I got 15

But I’m not sure I believe it. Unless that’s a cumulative score including last week’s…

by majope on Nov 10, 2008 1:40 PM EST   0 recs

15 is great...

but if you want I can subtract a few points to make you a believer… :-)

by CCB-VW on Nov 10, 2008 4:30 PM EST to parent up   0 recs

No, no--that's okay. :-)

Um. No rule against performance-enhancing drugs, is there? I mean, just curious.

by majope on Nov 11, 2008 6:49 AM EST to parent up   0 recs

Performance enhancing coffee...?

Caffeine’s off the banned list.

by fmk on Nov 11, 2008 11:32 AM EST to parent up   0 recs

Oh good.

Actually, it could be a little deteremental in this quiz….you wouldn’t want to get jittery and click away without taking due caution now would you?

by Albertina on Nov 11, 2008 11:54 AM EST to parent up   0 recs

10 here.

Can’t believe I blew the last question. Total panic move. I swear I knew that one.

CQRanking.com, you complete me.

by Chris... on Nov 10, 2008 1:51 PM EST   0 recs

What was the last question?

I’ve blocked it from my mind already…

by Albertina on Nov 10, 2008 3:01 PM EST to parent up   0 recs

Can't say here

I don’t want to spoil the surprise for anyone who hasn’t taken the quiz yet. But it involved years.

If it's any comfort, I got it right :-)

All hail Jens. You are clearly a genius.

5 last week, 14 this week

I’m gunning for you Bro..

by Mr Van P on Nov 10, 2008 9:33 PM EST   0 recs

Hrm

I think it may be possible to determine the max score possible by blind guessing simply by looking at my score. Chris, you wanna get little bear in on this game too? I need some reasonable competition.

by Hons on Nov 11, 2008 12:26 PM EST   0 recs

he's pretty sharp

though he often blows his answer by holding the key down too long.

by Chris... on Nov 11, 2008 9:17 PM EST to parent up   0 recs

3 last week, 10 this week. My guessing must be improving.

Is there a way to find out which questions I got correct? And do we get to know the right answers eventually? Anyone know?

by ZoeRochelle on Nov 11, 2008 1:02 PM EST   0 recs

yes...

the correct answers are eventually posted – i think it’s at the end of each month. some of us lag and take the quizzes two or three at a time, so the answers can’t come up too quickly.

by gavia on Nov 11, 2008 1:05 PM EST to parent up   0 recs

Answers published...

Since the quizzes are open until the month ends, I publish the answers on the first Monday of the next month. Nov will be on Dec 1st. It is well worth checking.
