    Wow, you could totally Google your way into the lead if that's the formula.

      Googling wouldn't really work... a lot of these questions are kinda obscure... just random stuff that you pick up along the way.

      only really factual stuff would be easy to find.

      your time would be way too high.

        Ehh... I found this through another forum... and I managed 9 right without much trouble there.

        The time penalty IS a hinderance to those who would otherwise just google everything, BUT... chances are the extra 100 points gotten for the correct answer would out weigh the time spent, so it would improve that individuals score. Whether it would put them ahead of someone who got 8/9 w/o googling at all... *shrugs*.

        No system is perfect, but this system seems to be the best possible. And regardless, it is still fun.

            I couldn't go with scorpio1690, I'm guessing because the 69 is profane. scorpio16 here.

              the 360 something seconds is because i got kicked off my computer...

              i didn't know it was timed. I would've stayed on the comp if i had known it was.

              i don't know exactly, but i probably did it in around 2 minutes. It wasn't that hard.

                    I didn't realize this was timed. I answered a few then did something else for a bit, then I went to do more and I was like "OH **** THERE IS A TIMER LOGO THERE IT IS DEFINITELY TIMED GO GO GO GO GO."

                    PS LOL @ THIS


                    By the way, I got it wrong. Sorry for not assuming a religion to be truth.

                    3. Was Jesus fully human or fully divine?

                    The correct answer was Both.
                    Jesus is 100% Human and 100% Divine. Fully God and fully Man. (report correction)
                    I can't even report a correction. Even though I am quite definitely logged in, it tells me I am not.

                        TPS gets same amount right as I do but does it a second quicker and he gets more than double my points.

                        yeah okay scoring system

                          Top10 gets many many more points than everyone else... TPS is in 10th.

                          Afro: the category was Roman Catholicism... therefore, you have to answer from that perspective. And Roman Catholics believe it is both.

                          PS - I can't report either... I had a roman numeral question that was missing X in its description of all the roman numerals. Went to report it and it told me I wasn't logged in.

                          PPS - So, yea... your answer is wrong, Afro. Gotta pay attention to the categories.

                          PPPS -

                          Anyone who doesn't realize it is timed just didn't read my post. Your own damn fault.

                            I only got the word questions right. This quiz was clearly meant for Americans... otherwise remedial Spanish and imperial system conversions wouldn't be there.

                                Most stuff on the internet is meant for Americans... although I saw a question that was European related.

                                PS - Whorli and I had the same set of 10 questions.
