This page shows the stats of each game and high scores. When the same nickname plays multiple sessions, their scores combine to form the overall high scores.

The statistics reset in 2020, because the point values went up for puzzles and questions. The previous statistics moved to the bottom of this page for preservation.

Statistics File Explanation

Each game has its own stats stored in an INI file. The file is divided into sections, written in order of occurrence in the game but shown here alphabetically:

Game Statistics and Adjustments

Each game session's INI file appear below: Because these are considered internal links, these files will not open in a new window. Please use the browser's back button to go back to this page.

Individual Game High Scores

The high scores for one game appear below:

  1. (No games yet.)

If a player shows up late or is a non-member, it appears after their score. Mentioning tardiness means their score could be even higher, but they missed out for whatever reason. Mentioning non-members may give them bragging rights if they do better than members. In the first iteration, one player was a non-member and did pretty well.

Overall High Scores

This high score list is for players that played more than once. Multiple full sessions' scores go here.

Database Stats

Question Counts

The following are the number of questions in the database:

Levels

  1. 1,080
  2. 2,266
  3. 2,336
  4. 2,067
  5. 363
  6. 379
  7. 303
  8. 304

As shown above, the number of questions for levels five to eight are low. These are the questions that are hardest to write. When writing questions, there's no plan to write a certain number for each level. The objective is to go through material and write questions while studying.

Bear in mind that these numbers include duplicate questions in different formats. For example, one question can appear three times: one with two choices, another one with three or more choices, and one with no choices. There can also be questions with multiple answers and then the same question requiring only one. There's no tracking the number of duplicates. It would take too long.

There may be questions waiting for choices and randomization and not included in the above numbers.

Puzzles: 1,137

Puzzles have a minimum of four words, and scrambles have a maximum of three words, ignoring articles, conjunctions, and some prepositions.

Database stats as of 11 Aug 2024.

Archived Statistics as of End of 2019

This section preserves the statistics before changing the scoring in the game. The objective is to give emphasis before the changes, because it was harder to earn points.

I do not talk about the questions with anyone that I feel may end up playing the game, especially my wife, whose name won't appear here for privacy reasons.

Mailing Lists

There are two mailing lists: newsletter and notify. They're separate just in case a person only wants one. The newsletter contains a summary of the game, the scores of everyone who played, corrections to scores, updates to the game, and a high score list. The notify list announces the time for the next game. Due to email sending quotas, the host will send the three random questions two days before the game session. Answering these three questions before the game officially starts will earn points.

There is a page on Facebook about the game, and I post when the next game will be and updates to the site/game.
