Kind of weird beginning. I personally screwed up number 4. I'd complain about 5 that it didn't accept my more specific except to be fair, it turns out it was actually a so I guess I can't complain. Except I will. Really, they should program it so that if the intended answer is a single word and the entered answer is two words with one of the words the same as the single word that it is probably correct.

So I just plain couldn't get my meta based on "Up the Down Staircase" to work.
My challenge it to constructors is to make a meta where the meta, theme or metanism is "Up the Down Staircase".

All over the place with this one. #4 I am not a New Yorker. #3 I didn't get partial credit.

Not the greatest but not the worse.
I made a dumb error on my first guess of the year one but it wouldn't have mattered. As for the first question, I am probably the only person in the world who gets confused with , aren't I? Wouldn't have made any difference.

Exactly! I had a pretty good streak going. Question 4 I did a WAG and *wow* it worked! I could get a 14! if I get a good question. ANd, oh, my gosh, that'd be a pretty strong guess but that hinted adjective makes it a locked in cinch. Here goes. Submit and... second question?!?!?!? Could have *really* been wrong? But the the answer to this is *still* ... oh...
