[Loop]

Curses, 61%.

[Eldandoerino]

71% Booya!

[Rizzano]

80% wahoo! Boy this quiz takes me back.

[Scarface]

:) that's the idea

[Loop]

I wasn't alive for most of it.

[Scarface]

All i'm hearing is excuses.

[Catbert]

If Loop gets to say that then my 27% is not only understandable but remarkable. Ah well, I guess it's fine for me to start failing things now. Oh and I love the quizes, wish I was here wwhen they first started.

[Scarface]

27%, thats basicaly the odds you would get if you guessed every answer.

You guessed every answer didn't you.

We have only had quizzes for about 2 weeks now.

[Catbert]

I guess it's nice to know that I havent missed out too much.

Post a new topic for a new quiz?

And I've always been an unlucky guesser, the only questions I got right were the ones that I was sure of.

[Alexandros]

How did I ever get 47%....

[Scarface]

That's the best 500 credits you'll ever spend.

[ORANGECRUSH]

42%- I feel jipped

[Scarface]

Google didn't help for this one?

[Loop]

27%, thats basicaly the odds you would get if you guessed every answer.

You guessed every answer didn't you.

I know I did.

[Scarface]

every answer?

You didnt even know the Famicom was the japanese name for the NES?

[Loop]

Well okay, almost every answer.

[Scarface]

That's better :)

[Catbert]

I however did not.

I didnt even know what one of the answer choices for like five questions was. Something like the Nintendo gaming system or something. I'm still not sure it's real.

[Scarface]

The NES or Nintendo Entertainment System was the biggest selling Console of its time, and virtually started the home console craze that followed.

That's the problem with the youth of today, no sense of history.

[Catbert]

And we would obtain this sense of history how? Oooh ooh I have an idea! Maybe sarcastic old guys could condescendingly spoon feed it to us in an online forum of some sort. Gee, wouldnt that be swell. (Needed to wash my hands after that last sentence)

[Scarface]

And we would obtain this sense of history how?

I hear the internet has a few useful resources for that type of thing .... :)

[Catbert]

Exactly how much free time do you think I have? You think I was just going down my list of random things to look up on wikipedia and I finally came across "famicon" after two weeks?

[Scarface]

Yes....

It's what I do.

[Catbert]

What're you on now?

Actually I did the calculations and, considering you're using dial up, with the assumption that you've been going at it 9 hours a day for 9 years you'd have checked....... about....... three pages.

Famicon was one of them?

[Scarface]

What're you on now?

Drugs

[Catbert]

It must've taken you hours to post that smiley.

Glad it was worth it :)

[Scarface]

The time stamp on every post begs to differ.

[Catbert]

They lie.

You know Scar so well.

[Scarface]

Everyone needs a hobby.

[Catbert]

I'm suddenly forgetting the time when I actually had a life.

[Scarface]

I'm sure it wasn't particularly interesting anyway.

[Catbert]

Well ya got me there.

Kay lets see whats next on the list.......... Japanese name for NES...... dear lord it redirected me to Famicon! Curses, if only I'd known sooner.
