Ok here's some stats from the results..

158 entries submitted in the quiz

- Lowest score: 11/30
- Highest score: 30/30, shared by 17 people. Congrats to 33South, Argonavis, chunkylad, cometcatcher, DavidH, gbeal, glenc, grl, Hitchhiker, jackenau, mattrob, Mick, netwolf, Robby, Robert_T, Smokey and Twokids for getting all 30 right and therefore getting the maximum 4 entries into the draw.
- Everyone gets at least 2 entries into the draw, as noone got below 10/30.
- Total number of entries in the draw: 464. I'm going to need a big hat!
- Question 27 was the "easiest", with 99% of the respondants getting it right.
- Question 23 was the "hardest", with only 53% of the respondants getting it right.

Here are a couple of graphs, showing the breakdown of the score's people got, and also a graph showing the percentage% of people that got each question right.

Thanks!

Oops, I missed this bit when I read the rules. Yay, I got 3 entries!!!

[rumples riot]

Hey this is funny, I got 24 right. I never thought I would get that many right just by whipping through it. Must be my natural genius that pulled me through. 80%, keeping to my usual standard. Did the same at Uni. 80 % average for my degree. I like blowing my own trumpet. I am good, just ask me, I'll tell ya!!!

Winners?

[iceman (Mike)]

Tuesday Steve, that's tomorrow

[janoskiss (Steve H)]

I got overexcited.
I want to win today!

[iceman (Mike)]

I'll be announcing the winners at about 6:30pm tonight. After Bintel, I've got to go to the chiropractor. A bit of nervous waiting never hurt anybody
