I only got 0.5 point. Because I know I am right for the 0.5 (geography question) and I cannot even attempt to answer to rest of 9.5 questions Embarassed

Did i not get 4.5?

I'm pretty sure i got 1 outta 2 on musicians, 1.5/2 on capitals, 1/2 on war and something else?

Try googling: Lithuania, Capital of.

I was going to say getting Ian Brown wrong was sloppy but it's far more serious. The godfather of modern brit pop.

Number 10 is strong on geography, average to poor on military history, superb on word rounds, weak on movies, good on sport and average on music. ( was strong on music but dropped several leagues after slipping up with Ian Brown ). Wink
