You people have broken me. Rebekah Send a noteboard - 30/09/2011 12:37:05 PM
I set a quiz for my team at work today, thinking at least one person would get 10/10. Highest score was 7.

You've all got me confused. I don't know what a regular person would know anymore.

I imagine that there'd be plenty of 10/10s for these questions on this site. But do bear in mind that I wrote it for a British audience, so the question on Rugby is perfectly sensible.


1. Which of the world's oceans is the largest?

2. Which animated 2010 film was the highest grossing film of the year?

3. Who wrote Animal Farm?

4. What is the capital ciy of Cambodia?

5. Complete this famous foursome: Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael, ???

6. Who won the Rugby World Cup in 1995?

7. What is the French word for "black"?

8. In which century was the American War of Independence fought?

9. Which chemical element has the symbol Na?

10. A leveret is a baby what?


And my tie-breaker question: What do you call a person from Monaco? (No one knew this.)

9/10+1 Stephen - 30/09/2011 03:48:43 PM 807 Views
It's not that crazy. Ok, some of it is basic, but some is just trivia. Vivien - 30/09/2011 04:09:14 PM 914 Views
7's a good score. Rebekah - 30/09/2011 06:32:59 PM 842 Views
I got a 6. Maybe there should be a math question in there? Vivien - 30/09/2011 07:02:22 PM 788 Views
8. But a lot of those are trivia. *NM* Ghavrel - 30/09/2011 06:46:57 PM 351 Views
Is that an objection? Aren't most quizzes? *NM* Rebekah - 30/09/2011 06:50:52 PM 359 Views
