  2. 28 first go, one mistake being finger trouble not spelling. I'll probably do
    worse next time, so don't think I'll bother...

    36 Points 1st Go

    Best score is 70, so some way to go I guess.

    "could do better"

    I answered over 200 in part 1, so the max is pretty high.

  5. 38 on the first one - one mistake was a typo, and the other was because
    I thought their incorrect spelling of lesion (leasion) was supposed to
    be 'liaison'

    43 on the second run.

    46 on the third (Blimey, I'm enjoying this)

    48 on the fourth (29 on the first section). Going for 50.....

    47. Hm. Another time.

  6. 45. HTF did someone get 70?

    I do a lot of competitions online and I often notice unrealistically high
    scores in quizzes or extremely low times in games - completing a circuit of
    a race track in 0.3 seconds, for example. These people must be cheating, so
    how?

    Wasn't too happy that my suggestions for "throan" and "oed" were
    rejected as incorrect.

    i.e. "thrown" and "owed".

  10. Very fast typing: that's my guess.

    Funny, got 28 points having English as a foreign language... actually many
    of the odd words were latin based, so it was easy for me ;-)

    BTW, I said Campagne was right and it replied Campaign, but Capagne is a
    correct French word.

    That was most of my trouble, I'm crap at typing.

    I clicked as fast as I could - I never said I'd got 200 correct!

    In part 1, when I do try I can easily get over 50 - so it depends on how
    quickly you see which is wrong. Just stare at the top one, if it's correct,
    then click it - else click the other, you never have to look at the bottom
    one.

  17. It was somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
    drugs began to take hold. I remember "Mungo \"two sheds\" Toadfoot"
    Look at the high-scorers... they're all 14, old man.

  18. They can't be English then, not if they can spell.

  19. Tried that. Got 32 on that bit - 19 on the next, again because of a
    misinterpretation of the mis-spelled word. So 51. Yay!
