    If we go to the library & peruse the science books, that is not using Google.

    :P

    If I do crap my excuse is that the JC didn't exist when I was in school. I'm sure science was completely different when I did the Inter :D

    In but highly sceptical that some of my answers are correct. I wasn't 100% on the density one (are you looking for an SI unit, like would inches be an acceptable answer for a unit of length?) and I entered only the surname of the Nobel Laureate as I can't think of his first name for the life of me. I guessed a letter for the DNA one as that's out of my league.

    Great idea for a topic, really tested on a few of them but also a good mix of ones with very few correct answers.......best of luck to all who entered!

    I might do one soon that is all just questions with a finite number of answers......Name one of the members of the Beatles, Pick an Irish city etc etc.

    It's your quiz, do what you like.

    From my limited experience, it would be a lot easier score it and admin the collation of entries.

    It would lead to a much tighter scoreboard as there is less spread of points won. There could be 10-12 on top points.

    Yeah, that would be the fun of it. Have a couple of really high scores thrown in so you aren't scuppered by one bad question / answer

    Maybe set up a game where only the person creating it knows if it is Peehs or Sheep, or even a mix of Q's.

    It would be evil, but would be a funny reveal.
