Well, I want to apologize to my teammates for not paying enough attention to the time limits. Math/Science should have been my strongest quiz.
Sorry. |

*sniff, sniff* Methinks your apology smells somewhat disengenuous looking at the scores so far, Mr. JP. *poke, poke* 
I'm still eager to find out what I got wrong on the lit quiz 'cause I felt fairly confident about those. The math and science one made my eyes glaze over. I think I'll go back to working on subtraction facts with the Dominator.

It's OK, JP. I ran out of time on the math/science one too. |

I work in the "math and science" field. I think my teammates could have reasonably expected a better performance. That's all I meant.
Owie! I'm being poked.

Thank you for doing so pitifully in math and science. As a writer, I can now rationalize how I managed to do so pitifully in grammar and vocabulary.

Can we do fun stuff like chord progressions and old science fiction next?
This was ha-ard. |

Oh yeah. The 1970s Geek Challenge.
That would bring them to EA in droves. |

Looks like we're just waiting on team Banana and team Elderberry. Did you guys have fun with this so far? Will you want to do another one in 3 months?

Yep! But can you get some topics that I'm better at. Like 1970's TV? |

Yep, this was fun Amy. Maybe you can have one of your "friends" run it so you can play next time.

The math was fun too, but would 3 minutes have been too much to ask? |

I don't think 3 weeks would have helped me.

We are now in dead last!!! You need to take your quizzes you exceptionally smart person, you!!!!! |  We're not in last place. But, we didn't move very far up the list. Sorry about that. If I'm exceptionally anything, it's not smart.

Bananas, you need to nag your team member to get the quizzes done so I can award the prize.
