I made a Firefly quiz on OkCupid.com because there was a quiz about every other gorram show and I felt cheated. I want some people to take it and tell me how accurate it is. It's my first attempt and I'm gonna add a "match this character to their planet and/or episode" section, too.

here's the link:

thanks a lot, y'all, give me as much feedback as possible.

WARNING: some of the questions have multiple answers and all of the right ones are worth the same amount of points, so no worries.

Took the quiz and this was my result:

Mal
Well Gorram! You scored 92%!

I am ruttin pissed off I didnt get 100%. Guess I'm gonna have to watch them all again to do better

.

Some nice questions there. Things I never really picked up on, made it challenging.

I did have a problem with 1 question though. The question about which line is not part of "The Hero of Canton" Unless I read it wrong, 2 of them are in the song as is, and 1 is there with the execption of 1 word so I picked that one.

I don't think this is really a fair question since it hinges on 1 word. Afterall, Adam got a whole line wrong when he sang it on the DVD, so asking something that specific is a bit much. Of course this is just my opinion.

Oh! I only got 80%.

I had hoped I would get higher than that considering how often I've watched each episode.

That was fun :) I do agree that the Hero of Canton one was a bit confusing.

I scored a sad 83%. And no one has scored lower than me yet *sniffle* But...I guess I can take some consillation in the fact that women scored "way" higher (since I am one) ;)

I got 95%, but like someone else mentioned. . .you might want to re-examine a couple of those questions. Some have multiple applicable answers, and the question about "The Hero Of Canton". . .I'm not sure if you worded the possible answers correctly.

I got 98%, but I think I was robbed.... There were some "not quite right" answers in there. It was fun, though, realizing that I know more about Firefly that I do about... oh... say... geography.

Actually, all three of them are right, and all of them had the exact same point values. I wanted to see if anyone would notice. I'm surprised nobody complained about the Shun Yu question, all of those were right too. I did issue a warning... but I'm glad y'all liked it.

Take my sky. I dare you.

What do you mean all 3 are right? You asked which was NOT in the song. The first 2 are in the song so how can either of them be right?

Well technically "he stole everything boss Higgins had to steal" isnt.

But if you think that it is, then there is no right answer to this question.

I know. But they're all the same point value. But since it's bothering everyone, I'm gonna just change it. Sorry for the annoyance, folks.

There's no place I can be since I found Serenity.

Mal, 94%.

It would be nice if you listed which ones we answered wrong, but my guess would be the one about the Hero of Canton Song, and/or which other show Larry Drake was in as a slaver. I just guessed on that one, and said SG1.

Okay, so I took it again and got 101%...?? Does that mean I'm really right?

I got 95%, but I blame my loss on a few misleading questions.

I don't care, I'm still free.

see, this is what I needed. this means that the rating system is off. see, the way I had it before, it was that the most points you could get was 88 (because that was the most points you could get) and the least was -71 because if you get things wrong, you get -1 or something. but okcupid does everything automatically, so when I asked for percentages maybe they couldn't handle that. I'm gonna fix the rating system when I fix the everything else. Which is now. NOBODY ELSE TAKE THE TEST UNTIL I CHANGE IT! Thanks for your input, guys.

I just tried and it said that I'm not allowed to see this test. Maybe you're updating it so it's not available?

I took your test, but was interested in knowning which ones I got wrong. Is there any way to see the "correct" answers without having to watching all the episodes again? Not that I wouldn't enjoy and be glad to watch them all over again.

Alright, anyone who wants an answer key can email me after taking the newly corrected test. Sounds good? As soon as it's up and running again (man, it takes forever to submit), I'll post the new link.

When I click on the link I get a message that says:

You are not allowed to see this test.

Do I smell or something? Am I considered too thick to take the test? Oh god, all those school exclusion issues are coming back.
