The Unforgiving Minute » I am the greatest of all time!

The other 0.9% are too smart to waste their time on trivially easy online quizzes, apparently…

I only got 97.5% despite answering 25 for 25. I think there was a time penalty.

You’re the second greatest of all time. I’m in the 99.98th percentile, which the software rounded to being smarter than 100%. I’m even smarter than myself, apparently, which explains what I’m doing here, telling you.

Uh-oh, you win: I can’t even spell the addy of my own blog.

There is indeed a time penalty - the first time I did it, I got all of them right, but only scored 98.4%, taking 3 minutes.

Going back and taking it again, with knowing all the answers right cut the time down to 46 seconds, and raised my percentage to 99.3%
