Pathetic. Needs more work !

MargoZ · Post by **MargoZ** » 18 Oct 2020 12:29

There were a few tricky ones there

Princestamps · Post by **Princestamps** » 18 Oct 2020 14:54

There is a mistake in one of the questions.

The stamp issue of New Zealand not issued was meant to be issued in 2006 not 2011. 2011 was when an issue for the same topic was shown with actual people rather than cartoons.

MargoZ · Post by **MargoZ** » 18 Oct 2020 17:59

Thanks for picking this up, Princestamps - all corrected now.

Having a senior moment on year dates!

Ubobo.R.O. · Post by **Ubobo.R.O.** » 18 Oct 2020 18:38

Please change my score to 6/9. A little less pathetic.

I got 5 out of 10, thanks to the India error stamp, and the se tenant definition !!

8/10 with 2 guesses some tricky questions there

Thanks for the quiz Margo

norvic · Post by **norvic** » 19 Oct 2020 01:46

I, too, had some lucky guesses, particularly the name of the NZ issue. OTOH, I should have got the Cape of Good Hope one right, and didn't.

Lucky guesses.

Thank you MargoZ.

norvic · Post by **norvic** » 19 Oct 2020 03:55

Oh, and thanks to Margo for dreaming up another tantalising set of questions!

Hence I must shamefully admit to a feeble 4 out of 10 this week.

But a good quiz shouldn't be too easy, and I learned a few things there - thanks to Margo for compiling such a stinker!!!

AMark · Post by **AMark** » 19 Oct 2020 06:10

It was 8/10 for me this time.

Thank you for doing these quizzes, Margo!

MrSamoa · Post by **MrSamoa** » 19 Oct 2020 06:58

Started of badly, but some lucky (educated) guesses got me 7/10.

Princestamps · Post by **Princestamps** » 19 Oct 2020 12:35

I seem to be getting worse and worse.

I got 10/10 on quiz 9 and 9/10 on Quiz 10, but just 7/10 on this one.
The NZ question is still answerable regardless of the corrected error and I got this.

I knew things were going bad when I got the first one wrong.

To be fair any of the three options would be possible under the current POTUS

6 out of 10

8/10. One incorrect question was when my porcine brains were out the window.

Number-O-Ne · Post by **Number-O-Ne** » 24 Oct 2020 01:55

6/10. Not bad for me. I've never collected, or developed an interest in, British Commonwealth

Thank you for the quiz, Margo!

P.S. October Stamp Trivia Quiz #12 is actually January (2021) Stamp Trivia Quiz #12. We have already had October Stamp Trivia Quiz, but it was #11.

FairyFoot · Post by **FairyFoot** » 30 Jan 2021 06:48

6 right

Thank you Glen! I needed it. My scores on these quizzes are pathetic. I got a 7, which is the highest in a long time.

Many thanks to Margo for putting these together. I'm terrible at them, but I do really enjoy them.

Cheers,
Joel.

norvic · Post by **norvic** » 31 Jan 2021 01:29

DOH! - Read the question. Falkland Islands Dependecies.

7/10 - thanks Margo, another swift and entertaining test of the grey cells.

MargoZ · Post by **MargoZ** » 31 Jan 2021 14:16

Thank Joel, Ian & Chris - the good news is that the average result for the 56 people who have so far completed the quiz is 51.1% so you are all ahead of the pack

sattvfan · Post by **sattvfan** » 31 Jan 2021 21:18

You got 7 out of 10 right
This happens when you do not think after reading last question.

7 out of 10 as well.

aviwire · Post by **aviwire** » 01 Apr 2021 23:52

6 out of 10

Lambinator · Post by **Lambinator** » 02 Apr 2021 00:19

I should have got at least 7. I was sure the Polish government in exile was in Great Britain, but when I saw the Cyrillic lettering on that Polish stamp it fooled me into selecting “Russia” as my answer. Tricky!

tikithindi · Post by **tikithindi** » 13 Jun 2021 23:43

Shameful..I got only 2 out of 10 . I am not true Collector, asking myself am I hoarder?!!
