Status: offline 		I got 42/50 but I would dispute some of them...  Never memorized all the conferences tho...  Japan lost the pacific fleet at Midway not primarily carriers???  Only one I would debate was German air force ineffectiveness.  Oil was crippling to be sure but tales of some of the green pilots in German cockpits at the end of the war are frighting.  Germany Seems to have found it self in the unenviable position of both the best of the best and the worst of the worst in terms of non suicide combat pilots.

Jax's heroic journey, I can foresee him coming back to struggle with things, and in the end choosing to lead a
better life for both him and his family. Whether that is changing what the Sons of Anarchy do, or quitting the
club, Jackson Teller will get out of the business.
criminal minds dvd The first time I watched this show I was instantly hooked. Each episode was filled with suspense keeping you glued to the tv wanting to know what's going to happen next.
grey's anatomy dvdI, for one,
couldn’t have asked for more. I am especially looking forward to what season eight holds for our Seattle Grace
Mercy West doctors.
one tree hill dvdThe opening
theme song was performed by Against Me, and I really enjoyed it once again.
How I Met Your Mother dvdThat’s being kind, of course. Most of the episode had me revolted. The biggest storyline going into the finale was Ted and the Arcadian, and it barely gets touched upon

Status: offline 		This was a general knowledge test. Some answers were "better" but maybe not "righter" than others
Trust good old wargamers to skip the "correct" answer and choose the "wrong" one based on arcane knowledge. Outsmart yourself. Then declare the test invalid.
I have been to the Ardennes forest but I never ever heard of the "Little Battle of the Bulge" because I did not read that particular bookabout Italy.
Never was to good on what was decided at the conferences. Austria was "anschlussed" in 1938 that kinda muddied some water for me. Is it in "western" or "middle" Europe? Scandinavia "western" or "northern"?
Hitler had repeatedly stated he wanted the Ukraine for Germany but I wasn't sure exactly what the initial territorial objective of Barbarossa was
other than "kick in the front door" and watch the whole rotten structure collapse. Not my area of expertise.
So I did not get 100% ...stupid, stupid test!! Only the misinformed could get it all correct!!
There. I have retained my genius credentials (in my mind...because other minds?? really, do they matter at all !!)
At least they did not mix up Austria and Australia like a History prof I once had. (Happy, beer swilling overweight guys with incomprehensible accents and funny pants, towns with silly names...all the same).

Status: offline 		Just toke it. I had browsed this thread first so i was prepared for the battle of the bulge thing/midway/western europe, not that i understod that problems just that there was problems. Non the less i answered to what i think is correct tho double reading some of the questions brought to special interrest per above.
Either they have fix up some stuff as i found no particular faults in the test now. Or my knowledge about WW2 is baaaaad.

I got 50/50, but im a dane and would certainly define Denmark/Norway as part of western europe in a cultural/east vs west europe understanding, while maybe more questionble geographicallly. When answering such a test i would answer it by using the "discovery methode". This isnt a ubah nerdy per say test, more of a what would u have u learned if u had seen enough of discovery channel some 5-10 years ago. In that sentiment i found all questions/answer reasonble.

Kind regards,

Rasmus

But 47 out of 50 and one was a fat finger error.

It was the conferences that got me.

Curiously I was only reading about Churchill's long flights to Tehran and Moscow a little while ago.

I still don't get it because I see posts with links and no issues. Did you have one of your links removed? That would not support a blanket statement that anything with a link is removed.
