SCORES:

Question 11: "How many questions?"

"11" 9
"12" 4
"23" 1
"11,111" 1
"9" 1

nope, stick it, Skoal!, all get 1 pt.

3 respondents get nothing for missing the question altogether.


Question 10: "Which apolytoner would you send and where would they be sent?"

Here's how I'm scoring the question:

Slowwy, Cuba (8)
MtG, Finland (8)

They get 8 because you had to get both halves, or 4(2)
since it is more 2^2 times as hard to get both questions.

Counting each half answer, and only counting the highest score, we get:

Ming, Mingapulco 4
Ming, Finland 4
Ming, Wales 4
Ming, South Bronx 4
Zylka, Finland 4
MtG, Mingapulco 4

How the devil did I get that many points?!

You do realize that I put Arnold Schwarzenegger in for philosopher of Apolyton, not governor of California, correct? (Everyone knows that Hume will be governor, which you seem to have recorded).

Yeah, I got Hume scored properly. All those Ahnolds, and scoring them all for 13 also had me score 13 for yours.

Good catch.

So glad I didn't get sent to Texas -- because from there, Slowwy would have booted me to Cuba.

Hey guys, I have an idea

Since I have no ideas for the next set of questions, would you want, Zylka, Ixnay and Smiley to make the next set of questions ?

That would be really cool, and I simply can't help but to see your questions

Of course, I'll be the one who'll collect and count the results.
