28/33. This here says I'm a genius. I swear that one of the most obvious ones (1000 Y in a M) was either just not worded correctly or had a glitch. :mad:

Like I said in an earlier post, verbal type problems were always more difficult than mathematical or spatial type problems.

I got 20/33 and gave up.

Afterwards I looked at your "answer post" and realized that I would have only picked up another 1-2 had I kept working on it. Either way, I seriously doubt I would be classified as a genius on an actual IQ test.

^^..ditto...no genious for me..lol

I'm certainly no genius, but love brain teasers, puzzles and seem to have a wealth of useless, trivial information.

Nice job frogman! The reason I like some of these games is for the above reason...it makes that trivial information just a touch more useful. Sort of like finding something in the attic that actually could be used.

Other Dudes: Don't scroll down ...this might spoil a few of em for you.

Ok, well I knew it was cricket, but I don't know squat about the game...I was like "bats to an out....?" I knew when the inventor didn't know that American football had 11 players that it had to be UK, S A or something like that.

23 pairs of chromosomes...OK unless you've got Turner's or something. missed it anyway

Two "n's" in millennium! I've been misspelling it my whole life. The things I have learned from here!

Chessboard is one word where I come from, but I missed it plain and simple. Aaagh. :mad:

BTW
How about these?
99 L
12 A M
T W 9 Y
7 D S
6 W T S
5 G T
3 D O T C
1 S D N M Y C T B T O C O I A L Y

That could be excellent depending on where you got 'em. I used to look at my brother's old exams and go "Gosh, how the heck could he be getting C's?" ...he was an engineering major at Princeton.
