Last week's winners:

calbert 1026
Misplaced yat 1024
elpresidenteALO 1023
BigJimTaters 1022
TriKaya 1019
Badmonkey82009 1019
Bulimic_Rainbow 1017
Joelogon 1014
dahmers love zombie 1013
M-G 1012

I'm noticing that several of the top 10 are regular submitters. I don't believe that's a coincidence.

Nowhere near those scores, I guess being on the Main Page at least some would have helped!

I must have been the 10th person to take it or something to get on the Top 10.

I predict being knocked out of the top 10 within the hour.

I did better on the hard test than the easy test. Top 10 on the hard one, for now.

Sucked on the hard (hur hur hur), second place on easy (right now, 924)

Apparently I got too much work done this week, but not by much...

I made it as far as 3, lost focus.

Any chance you could shorten it? Maybe one question?

Dang, 6 points off from the top 10 last week. And this week I only got 9/11 (cue Rudy Giuliani), so my 7th ranked spot won't last long. Oh well, these are a lot of damn fun- keep up the good work.

I've found that the weeks that I score highest are also the weeks when I get the least amount of work done at the office. Coincidence?

1 out of 11 correct, total points = 83

An almost perfect score!

I usually get between 7 and 9, but I had to get stuff done this week. Can you tell?

You gotta be in it to win it.

I finally got some use out of reading poetry. I didn't remember the perfume article but I remembered the A. E. Housman poem that asks "why was Burton built on Trent?" and that led me to the right answer.
