Hey, why don't I see everyone on their knees bowing to me?! :smile:

Something tells me we'll have a lot of high scores among our members.
 
I thought it was a pretty good test, it covered a nice range. I wonder what I'd score if i was sober. :-p

Maybe I'd flunk. :redface:

I don't know, it was a long test to start after 2 AM, and I nearly gave up and went to sleep a few times. I think I'm going to do that now anyway.
 
You did damn good for sleeping through it. :biggrin:

My head hurts and I can't sleep. :frown:

Your head isn't supposed to hurt until you sober up!

I feel like I've had a gallon of coffee to drink (my brain is all fogged over, but I can't get my body to stay still enough to fall asleep), but I haven't had any all day other than my morning coffee. It's going to be a rough day at work tomorrow. :frown:
 
One moderator complains of alcohol, the other, of coffee. To the moderators, dare I suggest? ...moderation?

Hey, where's your test Mr?
 
Okay, okay, I'll get to it.

1. Does the Earth revolve around the Sun or is it the other way around?
The Earth revolves around the Sun.
The Sun revolves around the Earth.
Neither, unless you replace "to revolve" with "to orbit". Which orbits around which? Well they orbit around each other I suppose, because they're both separately massive and obey Newton's laws to a good approximation.

picky, picky, picky
 
Eh, I tried and I fell asleep, while counting sheep and sheep's legs and rooster's legs and adding them all up.
 
4. Which of the following is not considered a state of matter?

It doesn't matter.

Going up against other guys in my generation isn't exactly fair. :wink:... *bows to Evo and Moonbear* ... :shy:

Some of those questions were ridiculously easy and a few of them were stupidly hard.

And I know nothing about the American Constitution, so that question was kind of biased towards an American audience.
 
9/9 and 94% intellectual not as good on the knowledgeable bit but still a 9

Bah. I didn't know who the first PM of Australia was.

I didn't either, but at least that fact can be considered general knowledge, and not some random fact about some random country's constitution.

Geeze, I was thinking a lot of people here would have scored well and posted. Are the only bright ones here the ones that have posted already? :-p

C'mon Gokul, I know you'd ace this kind of test.

I'm pretty sure I guessed the first Australian prime Minister wrong, I mean "who cares"? :rolleyes: It's like asking who the 13th president of the United States was. (It was Millard Fillmore, the last member of the Whig party).

I'd like to know which questions I missed.

:smile: If you want to have a polster hang up real quick, start telling them why none of their choices are valid and insist on "none of the above" :biggrin:

Hate to break it to you, but the American constitution is the oldest federal constitution in the world still in use. It's not just some random country's constitution. Neither is a fact regarding the separation of church and state in this constitution just some random fact, given it's the first constitution in the world to explicitly forbid its government from establishing a religion.

Well, that's not true, now that I think of it... I didn't hate to break it to you. :-p

Far from it. You beat me by a point on knowledge.

With regard to the first PM of Australia, which is a bit like knowing that George Washington was the first President of the US, the six colonies (New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania, Victoria and Western Australia, which are now states) federated and the Commonwealth of Australia was formed on January 1, 1901, which was the date that the first PM assumed office. :wink: :biggrin:
