20/31

#1 Post by littlebeast13 » Sun Aug 31, 2008 6:54 am

That's how I finished up my first month of playing the Sploofus QoD, easy to figure out since this morning's correct answer advanced me to Level 3. Not bad given the rough start I got off to, and the fact that I had 2 "incorrect" answers in which my green dot disappeared out of the box before I hit Submit.....

And of course, that still won't get me on OCD'er's leaderboard.... well, maybe I can carry over this good stretch I've been on into September....

2031 is military time for 8:31 PM and today is 8/31.


I'm in a geeky mood and need to get my gratuitous post total up.

What's a gratuitous post?

What? I'll be having none of this on a Sunday morning.
Besides, I woke up with a migraine. :(

Did you keep track of your stats or does sploofus do that for me and I don't know how to find it?

Keep track of mine, not yours, I mean.

Spoolfus does it for you. Look at your My Spoolfus page...then somewhere at the bottom of that page has your stats for the current month.

I got my last two questions correct, but I know that this will be the worst month ever in terms of ranking.

I have my Monthly QoD rank on the footer, but it doesn't tell me how many I missed for the month (I believe I missed 4 in August).

I am with Cal on this.

Maybe I just don't know where to look or I didn't tell it something.

I think you have to be like notebook boy and keep track yourself. :)

I'm pretty sure of that.

I'm pretty sure of that.

I knew how many I got right by what level I was at...

I will lose track once I forget my previous monthly totals.....
