Ok some stats..

- 162 entries
- Highest score: 28/30, shared by 2 people (33South and Robert_T).
- Lowest score: 6/30, by 1 person.
- Total number of entries in the draw: 402. (Work out your chances of winning by diving your number of entries by 402 and times by 100 )
- Question 28 was the "easiest", with 91% of people getting it right (and that doesn't count q6 and q14 which everyone was marked correct on).
- Questions 7 and 24 were the "hardest", with only 14% of people getting it right (and that doesn't count q6 and q14 which everyone was marked correct on).

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

Thanks!
