OK, so I'm usually buried on Page 10 or worse in the Sploofus standings. But I got one that had been answered correctly only . . . well, see for yourself:

CONGRATULATIONS!
You answered correctly in 16.21 seconds!

THIS QUESTION HAS BEEN ANSWERED
CORRECTLY 8.4% OF THE TIME


The 16.21 seconds isn't accurate -- my computer is very slow.

Last month I was in the top ten or twenty until the last few days of the month. I finished 34th. Right now I'm 751st. :(

I think Sploofus has started giving those who finished high one month terrible question the next month. It seems to be not just random.

Good job!

I had a pretty good month in October. I finished 4th overall as Newtex. I could have been 3rd but I missed a question in the last week that I knew the correct answer to as soon as I clicked.
I still have hopes to win a month, I have a lot of top 10s, but I can't get over the hump.

I was 7th in October running the table after opening the month at 1 for 4. This month I'm 3/3 with 2 in the 1500s and 1 in the 1400s for 2nd place.

Newtex! Sounds like you reinvented OldHick. :)

I hope you win -- I'll celebrate your victory as if I'd done it.

Do you realize you just cursed yourself?
