Perfect 12 *NM* Hieshyn Send a noteboard - 11/12/2009 01:08:26 PM
And people actually did much better, with fully 10% answering all 12 correctly - link for it at the bottom, and the vast majority able to answer more than half correctly, considering the questions I'm fairly impressed.
The God King mourns...

Pretty amazing that only 2% of respondents got all 12 questions right..... trzaska2000 - 11/12/2009 01:09:09 AM 632 Views
Because we're politically obsessive? Isaac - 11/12/2009 03:58:28 AM 687 Views
Only 24% of people understand what cap and trade is. Roland00 - 11/12/2009 04:09:36 AM 630 Views
Which is fairly disturbing Isaac - 11/12/2009 04:21:52 AM 644 Views
science is more interesting than your silly politics *NM* LadyLorraine - 11/12/2009 04:28:24 AM 344 Views
12 out of 12 Roland00 - 11/12/2009 01:03:08 AM 619 Views
I missed most of the people LadyLorraine - 11/12/2009 01:04:00 AM 647 Views

9 out of 12 Colonel Logain - 11/12/2009 01:22:00 AM 687 Views
9 of 12 *NM* Hieshyn - 11/12/2009 01:40:35 AM 349 Views
8 of 12. (names and numbers have never been my thing) *NM* Jonielle - 11/12/2009 02:19:37 AM 348 Views
12/12. Of course, I'd probably do worse if it weren't current events. *NM* Burr - 11/12/2009 02:35:30 AM 303 Views
12/12 That was easy. *NM* The Shrike - 11/12/2009 02:42:16 AM 318 Views
There's also a science one, on the same site Isaac - 11/12/2009 04:13:05 AM 1055 Views
only missed the one about mars LadyLorraine - 11/12/2009 04:27:22 AM 707 Views
It wasn't a great question Isaac - 11/12/2009 04:52:23 AM 674 Views
i hate questions like that. I need to get used to them LadyLorraine - 11/12/2009 05:02:39 AM 649 Views
Suh-weet. Got 'em all. nossy - 11/12/2009 05:05:44 AM 588 Views
Was unsure of the first one, the rest were easy Floffe - 11/12/2009 06:56:21 AM 652 Views
12. I think the selection bias would be stronger on this one. Also, they're much easier questions. *NM* Ghavrel - 11/12/2009 08:07:50 AM 347 Views
I don't agree, actually. Legolas - 11/12/2009 10:34:36 AM 614 Views
It was a lot easier due to not having more than one america specific question. *NM* jh - 11/12/2009 11:23:41 AM 318 Views
Wrong spot. *NM* Inigo Montoya - 11/12/2009 12:11:06 PM 341 Views
Perfect 12 *NM* Hieshyn - 11/12/2009 01:08:26 PM 335 Views
12 for 12 again! Me smart! Are there any others we can take? *NM* trzaska2000 - 12/12/2009 05:07:56 AM 367 Views
11. Didn't know DOW, surprise, surprise. *NM* nossy - 11/12/2009 05:02:49 AM 337 Views
Me too. Either. Whatever. Capitalist scum can keep their meaningless statistics *NM* Cannoli - 11/12/2009 04:52:44 PM 346 Views
Like it or not, that number is all too meaningful for every American. And non-Americans, too. *NM* Vodalus - 11/12/2009 05:01:57 PM 344 Views
actually, that number is pretty damn meaningless for the average american moondog - 11/12/2009 05:24:07 PM 605 Views
You're dead wrong. That number influences all sorts of things that affect people, whether... Vodalus - 11/12/2009 05:32:01 PM 668 Views
Influential, yes. Readily known and called to mind, not so much. nossy - 11/12/2009 06:33:19 PM 641 Views
I think it's a good example of how demographics can have an unexpected bias Isaac - 11/12/2009 07:28:07 PM 708 Views
Eh? No mention of newspapers? Am I alone in getting most of my news by reading an actual... Vodalus - 11/12/2009 08:06:26 PM 644 Views
*raises hand* Legolas - 11/12/2009 08:38:48 PM 696 Views
Thank goodness. Vodalus - 11/12/2009 11:13:06 PM 736 Views
Same as nossy ^ *NM* Floffe - 11/12/2009 06:57:01 AM 326 Views
9. I haven't been paying attention to recent events. Two of them were statistics, unsurprisingly. *NM* Ghavrel - 11/12/2009 08:06:15 AM 329 Views
11 - hesitated on the Afghanistan question and then picked the wrong one. Legolas - 11/12/2009 10:37:21 AM 692 Views
6, and above average. Not bad for an Aussie with no interest in American politics. rAndy aL - 11/12/2009 10:41:57 AM 673 Views
12 on the politics, 11 on the science. Stupid antibiotics *NM* Inigo Montoya - 11/12/2009 12:11:53 PM 356 Views
12/12. Though, I did guess on a couple. *NM* Kaldric - 11/12/2009 01:47:48 PM 337 Views
12/12. It's scary that 98% of people can't get it right. Tom - 11/12/2009 01:53:19 PM 634 Views
Perhaps... jh - 11/12/2009 04:35:01 PM 714 Views
5% of the replies here. I doubt 5% of the replies at that site are from non-Americans. Tom - 11/12/2009 05:21:44 PM 657 Views
Eh, likely a lot more here. The 5% was for that site. *NM* jh - 12/12/2009 02:01:58 PM 380 Views
Who knows, it was a phone survey anyway Isaac - 12/12/2009 02:28:25 PM 689 Views
10/ 12 snoopcester - 11/12/2009 02:00:05 PM 592 Views
10 correct. Danu - 11/12/2009 02:15:30 PM 624 Views
11/12, top 93%. Mad Cow Bomber - 11/12/2009 02:38:36 PM 810 Views
Yeah, that's true. *NM* Legolas - 11/12/2009 03:35:14 PM 304 Views
11/12 - I didn't give the official, read bullshit, number for unemployment. *NM* Vodalus - 11/12/2009 04:57:44 PM 312 Views
12/12 politics and science *NM* moondog - 11/12/2009 05:24:37 PM 339 Views
12 of 12, but besides the geography question, people should know those answers through osmosis. Palatine - 11/12/2009 05:45:43 PM 600 Views
11/12, didn't know the Dow jones *NM* AliasRY - 11/12/2009 06:24:54 PM 307 Views
