BTW - I would have gotten 101 because I don't know where the Sistine Chapel is built! (Our three entrants have each given different answers to that question so I still don't know. I apparently confused Bach's Cathedral and the Sistine Chapel when I made up the quiz. I was thinking of the wonder we rushed in Justinian which must have been Bach's. Anyway, everyone gets the three points for question 7. :) )

The Sistine Chapel was built in Khatovar. I just saw a picture of it in the Domestic Thread in the aeril veiw of the city.

I remember us rushing that now... I think I may have been at the helm that game... anyway Donsig already said he gave it to everyone so it doesn't matter.
 
Yeah it doesn't matter on that question. Everyone taking the quiz gets the 3 points for that question. :)
 
We need some more entries. I've ordered a whole spaceship load of bananas from Apolytonia!
 
Hey, I'm still in 2nd place! ;)

My memory doesn't serve me as well as it should at this young age... :confused: but I still did better than I thought I would! :yeah:

WTG for those sharp enough to score so high! Great thread, donsig!

If every question is worth 3 points, how come most of these aren't multiples of 3?

EDIT: ohh partial credit I assume, but still the 104 total isn't a multiple of three either.

99 + 3 = 102
102 + 3 = 105
