Slate Quiz, August 3, 2012

The place to talk. "On topic"? "Off topic"? We make no such petty distinctions here.

I got 321 points. I guess I know more about current events than I do about Olympic history.

My sister texted me yesterday very disappointed about her 329. I had to tell her that was actually really GOOD...

I can understand how she feels. It's the Slate guy, smiling down at you from on high.

Anyone at Slate playing with the stats? I'm not interested so much for the raw score distribution - if there's a tracking cookie, it would be interesting to see whether beating the average (or beating the expert, or improving one's score) makes one more likely to come back the next week.

Horrific 181 - got most of the questions wrong this week. I guess I'm paying too much attention to the Olympics & not enough to the rest of the world's events.
