Damn! It was my teacher's question and I still don't understand. What about the elevator operator?!?

The elevator operator part was tricky until I figured out it was the "extra information" to throw you off the main needed information to solve the problem.

Hmm.. I have no idea how well I'll do. probably pretty badly, so I'll take the Apprentice level.

7930 on todays quiz. I might as well have taken the expert level - when I had to guess, I guessed wrong twice!

It did seem to be heavily US-biased.

I decided to take the expert one, but I have to say I'm a little miffed about this question:

I couldn't follow the logic. oceanography is the study of oceans, but those are all countries and not study of's. Frankly, fossils are found in every country, or at least Dinosaur Train would have me believe that.

I got 8945 today, which was way better than my 6400 yesterday. Hooray for lots of U.S. based questions.

I could only think that that question was erroneous. Surely fossils are to palaeontology as oceans are to oceanography.

It seems we need a new question, or else I've lost track. Do we have a volunteer?

Yes, no, maybe. It's gotta be one of those choices.

wow! I finally scored something. Why did it bother asking me what country I was from if half the questions are about Vermont?

I didn't get the frog thing at all. By the time I worked out the rules, I was too bored to do it. Now my IQ is 0
