After however many years of Catholic school (15) I can honestly say that no one ever told us about he books of the bible and how many there were. Damn them. I could have used that useless trivia at a time like this!

don't feel bad, kiddo. everyone has their own niche, and these puzzles are just one of those. i think everyone would agree that intelligence or even intellectual ability or potential cannot be quantified by a 25 question test.

take care

Great, now I don't feel like such an idiot for not being able to achieve genius level. Some of those are doggone hard, ridiculous, and stuff no one cares about (foreign sports!). I finally gave up and Googled all the answers, at least I found the answers on the first try. Thanks for causing the GDP of YT to fall by 300 posts...

"Mike" and "Genius" get used in the same sentence all the time in Alaska: "That Mike, he's no genius."

But I should get some kind of credit for hanging out with smart people. One co-worker got all the bible questions right away and another got all the odd sports questions.

Augh!! frustrating, but I love puzzles. LOL

I have 30/33, and still racking my brain on the last 3.

The ones I don't have yet....28, 30 & 31

28 I think has something to do w/ the 'Human Body'. No clue on the other two. grrrrrrrrrr....

d4nimal · 02-25-2006, 08:50 AM

I had a big problem with 31 as well. I think if you live in the US and do not really follow the rules of some foreign sports you may never get it. I got close just out of frustration, but I never would have figured it exactly out.

30, look at the way it is worded. It is worded like S A is a proper noun/place.

28, you are on the right track!

Hey! good clue! Got 30

Got 28, but I can't take credit. ...teen daughter came in office to see what I was doing....told her something to do w/ Human body & she got the answer right off.

I GIVE! on 31....I don't follow foreign sports...LOL

Now off to give test 2 a try....LOL...I may not have any hair left by tomorrow.

Jenn218 · 02-26-2006, 08:23 AM

I finally took the time this morning to go through the whole test - every other time I started, something else came up that I had to do, too bad they can't save your answers until you get back on it - Anyway, I only have three more left.

I used the clues from here to help with #28 & #30 and someone gave the answer to #33 (Thank you because I had no clue).

I am stuck on #14,17,31 - can someone give me some hints without telling the answers? I am thinking that these three are sports, as there was a hint about sports on here and I haven't had any sports answers yet.

I think #31 might be something like 6 balls to an out in cricket or something (that isn't right, but something dealing with cricket).

I'm not a sports person, so I have no clue!

d4nimal · 02-26-2006, 08:32 AM

you are right, they are all about sports. two out of the three are sports that i believe exist predominantly in england.

14 - In the US, a close relative to the sport has Superbowl

17 - Think about what sport has a different name internationally

31 - Think about never getting this one. It involves the rules of the sport as well. I never figured this out by myself.

Jenn218 · 02-26-2006, 08:49 AM

Thanks I got the first two, but still stuck on the last one......

I have typed in everything from 6 balls, bounces, etc to an overtime, out, etc. in cricket (is the cricket part right?) - I know I should give up, but it is driving me nuts!

That is one I would've never gotten on my own.

You are SO close! 6 balls & cricket is correct
