all of them?

Noone fails an exam and lives.

Thanx 4 The Fish · 17-10-2003 09:42AM

Nope, there is a number, ie 3 in 10, except that isn't it.

Ravaan · 17-10-2003 10:15AM

A little under 50%. You've got about a 1 in 2 chance of passing unless you get Mericet as your examiner.

(I finally got round to looking that one up.)

So, what's the pass mark for Unseen University examinations?

GuanYin · 18-10-2003 10:19PM

Do you mean Finals or any examination?

Dunno about any examination, but finals are 88%.

If I'm right my question is:

"How old was Cohen when he left his tribe?"

GuanYin · 28-10-2003 01:48AM

Hrm, 10 days and no reply.

Ok I'll give an easier question:

What can be found at the very centre of Ankh Morpork?

ozt9vdujny3srf · 28-10-2003 02:00AM

Te river ankh?

GuanYin · 28-10-2003 02:03AM

strangely enough, nope.

Sarky · 28-10-2003 10:48AM

The Shades?

GuanYin · 28-10-2003 10:55AM

nope again.
Its a building.

Thanx 4 The Fish · 28-10-2003 12:11PM

UU ?

GuanYin · 28-10-2003 12:43PM

nope, fraid not.

Thanx 4 The Fish · 28-10-2003 12:49PM

Tower of the arts.

BTW for all those people who got the success rate at the assassin's guild wrong, the answer is 1 in 5 make it as assassins.

GuanYin · 28-10-2003 01:44PM

Nope again.

(what book has the assassin reference? That did my head in for ages)

Ravaan · 28-10-2003 02:11PM

Me too. I reread the first section of Pyramids, figuring it'd be there, but the answer I gave (1 in 2) was the only reference to passing rate I could see. I even checked the New Discworld Companion, but it wasn't there either. Where the hell do you get 1 in 5 from Thanx 4 The Fish?????

Is the answer to sykeirl's The Dysk?

Thanx 4 The Fish · 28-10-2003 02:16PM

UU was the centre of the city but it expanded away from there.

Is it pseudopolis Yard.

AM grid reference EJ5 or the watchhouse

GuanYin · 28-10-2003 03:09PM

nope and nope

Where is the Assassin ref T4TF?

Ravaan · 28-10-2003 03:42PM

Opera House?

GuanYin · 28-10-2003 04:40PM

Bingo!

Your go

Ravaan · 28-10-2003 05:37PM

Who wrote the Necrotelicomnicom?

Tree · 28-10-2003 07:15PM

Sarky · 29-10-2003 02:51PM

Ahmed the I'm-not-mad-i-just-get-these-headaches?

echomadman · 29-10-2003 03:42PM

It was written by Achmed the Mad, though he preferred to be called Achmed the I just get these headaches

Ravaan · 30-10-2003 09:44AM

Echomadman's right. But if either of you want to post a new question - go ahead.

Ravaan · 07-11-2003 10:25AM

Bleedin' hell, do I have to do everything myself? OK, name all of Angua's brothers and sisters.

GuanYin · 09-11-2003 04:34PM
