Quiz Time 13
Yr Host - Aaman Lamba
Answers have been added to Quiz Time 12 - and the winner is Phillip Winn, with 3 points
Just under the wire of 2005, this quiz has a theme - the blogosphere. All the questions are related in some way to the blogosphere and it's denizens. Are you a question or an answer?
Also, tonight (Jan 1), there is a huge and arbitrary quiz online on a blog hosted by the Karnataka Quiz Association (KQA), the finest Quiz Association in the world, and one of which I have had the honor of being a member, and ranked quizzer, along with my team, "Mustafa and the Fat Bottomed Girls" - the quiz is online from 1500-1800 IST (09:30:00-12:30:00 GMT) - give it a shot, if you like.
Send me your answers by email - aamanlamba at gmail.com
Prize:Once again, whoever gets the most answers right will get a prize mailed him/her from me. Honor system, so no looking up answers from Elgoog, etc.

I have a question of my own: How greatly would it piss off PW if I said I prefer this layout to the new one?
Hello? Bueller? Bueller???
Funny! A throwback to some of the olde layout, but the coments don't seem to stick?
Great job Aaman, will dig into this soon!
The best quiz of the year is at the Guardian I scored 28 out of 50 there
You should have my pathetic answers awaiting your laughter in your mailbox.
You actually scored 6.5 on 10 - I knew I made it easy:)
The KQA quiz is up - and boy is it tough!
Not too many people have sent in their answers to this easy quiz yet - EricOlsen should look closely at at least one question;) Aaman
All I know is what a SLAPP is.
Joan Hunt got 6.5 - any more takers?
I'm still rather ashamed at my one answer...I missed! I missed! I missed the easiest one of the bunch!
I think my score would be a zero. Which is cool, given my thoughts about the blogospheriverse.
