hmm, the correct answer to 11, based on how it was phrased should be: "all of the above" imho

but at any rate, will we be able to view our quiz scores? that would be cool. [as would winning hehe]

I chose all of the above because I knew manhunt was correct and I also saw no more heroes as having a controversy due to the censorship in non-US countries. And with all my experience with multiple choice tests, if two are correct, then all of the above must be true. Thank you for taking out that question.


YES! exactly, finally someone who sees the logic. if the answer to a multiple choice question contains "all of the above" and at least TWO other answers fill the criteria of the question then it MUST be "all of the above". if in fact the true answer was NOT all of the above then it was the right move of gbatemp to disqualify the question.

Man your logic is a bit wierd, if I had an apple a pear and a banana and ate the apple and the pear, then said which did I eat the apple the pear the banana or all of them. the answer cannont be all of them as I still have a banana uneaten only if I ate them all could the answer be all of them.

So in that case your answer would have to be which one was MORE eaten... :wtf:

I picked 'All of the above'. I thought the same as Issac.

Oh well, goodbye Acekard 2.

The question has been discarded, meaning it doesnt matter what answer you selected for this question!


QUOTE(PickleHead @ May 29 2008, 08:05 PM) Large is a relative term :v
It was pretty large to me since I love the game and the developer.

We decided to remove the question because it was subjective (relative) and there was no "measurable" answer...

... he says that he only thought about the two that he knew for sure, so if you have your question, but we know only that you ate the apple and the pear, we know nothing about the banana, which would you choose?
-Apple
-Pear
-Banana
-All

You actually have a serious lack of logic there. If you can find at least ONE item being false, then you simply can't say all of them are true... And RE4 had no controversy whatsoever, so "All of the above" is a wrong answer.

Anyways, while I believe the question to be perfectly clear -and chose Manhunt 2-, I respect the staff's decision.

Good luck to everyone, and extremely good luck to myself.

Even if we didn't win, do we get to see our scoring results?
