| 8/13 - but most of the ones I got were obvious - A Tale of Two Cities, Moby Dick, Bulwer-Litton, Peter Pan... |

8/13
The ones i missed are ones i've not read. I got lucky on a couple just by guessing. |

| I dunno about that! OK they weren't random guesses, I just changed the answers I thought "less likely" - I didn't do it scientifically or mathematically. Gut feel and fluke, I think, heavy on the fluke. |

Impressive. I'd figure it would take apx .5 * 4 13 to randomly get it. But you the man! |

| It took me four goes to get 13/13 without looking at the answers. Started 7/13, 8/13, 11/13, 13/13. I had much more problem with the later questions than the earlier ones in the list. (And from 8 upwards, yes, of course I was just trying guesses) |

| 9/13, I have read 2 (and one of those was one of my wrong answers...). |

I got 11/13, but I have only read 0.5/13.
Trying to work out the inconsistency, I realised it must be CV and Groza's fault... one of their puzzle hunt puzzles had me looking up first lines of famous books. |

10/13. Out of the three, two had nothing I recognized (or read).
The other....bah. I just read the correct answer no more than 6 months ago! [2001. You have to admit it's a trick question.] |
