Just a topic were you can post your stats at DITL. Like have you ever placed at the Cap contest or gotten very far on sudden death?
I have placed in the cap contest twice but never won it...
And I think the highest I have ever been in sudden death is like 7... rather pathetic.
I am the orignator of one of the Polls though
What does defeat mean to you?
Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.
I had a few goes at the caption contest. I never really did too well.
The only time I got mentioned was for thinking up last weeks poll.
"You've all been selected for this mission because you each have a special skill. Professor Hawking, John Leslie, Phil Neville, the Wu-Tang Clan, Usher, the Sugar Puffs Monster and Daniel Day-Lewis! Welcome to Operation MindFuck!"
I've entered the Cap Comp twice, neither time was my entry notable enough to be mentioned in the honorary.
Sudden Death, though... The highest I've gotten was up there toward 150.

I have 1 win and 20 honourable mentions in the Caption Competition. I once got over 100 in Sudden Death, but that was a long time ago, and mainly though luck. Those damn planets and nebulae keep getting me.

My problem is the TOS planets. One looks like a dozen others.

Yeah, that too. Voyager species throw me off somewhat, too. I've watched each episode of TNG at least ten times each, some I would not be surprised if it was upwards of 30. Deep Space Nine I've seen everything a few times each. TOS/Enterprise I've not seen in full, but know a good deal about. With Voyager's frequent encounters of different species on a near weekly basis, combined with the fact that I've not seen most of that show in quite some time, it makes for some difficulty.
Don't you hear my call, though you're many years away, don't you hear me calling you?
You have to wonder how those people get to like 250.

Graham made note that a lot of people would look up images in a separate browser window while taking the quiz. That's a lot of effort for a contest with no true reward!
