They really want you to take the test repeatedly so they can get a better snapshot. I did it 5 times (I think), and I'm done for the day. :-P They seem to keep whatever your last score is as your current score, so I have no idea how it all factors, but whatever. It was fun. :-) Ok…so I took the test and it looks like the 10 questions is just a gimmick. They really want you to take the test repeatedly so they can get a better snapshot.

We can blame differences on all sorts of things: it's evening here, afternoon where you are (judging from the comment time on GD), things like that. ;) And of course it's just 10 questions so one might simply get (un)lucky. 112,something.

Since I was the only (or first) from GearDiary to do the test, I am on first position in the Gear Diary group. Problem is that I don't understand all English words, so a question about acuse or obtuse triangles, or about an anemometer, is abracadabra to me. Anyway, I'm on position 40 in the "Smartest user of IE on WinNT" group. I hope I increase the statistics for that group a bit. :) lol – just did the test.
