Surgiac : I hear you on that one. I think I had less than 20 seconds left, and I guessed on almost all of them. I do think I got a few right as well, but I'm pretty sure that my score will be negated because I did guess on so many. You're pretty good at this, though! Don't know if I'm gonna catch you, but it's still fun to try!

play4fun : I completely forgot about the Viz aspect of these quizzes. I'm just blessed and enjoying the questions, even if I don't know the answers. They're really thought-provoking and help to establish more of the Bible in my mind! Keep up the good work!

Day 9 has ended. Among today's participants, only one person got all of them right, but the rest of you were very very close, which is pretty impressive. The good kings in this list are:

Asa, Jehoshaphat, Uzziah, Amaziah, Hezekiah, Jotham

Current Standings:
Surgiac : 590 (+45)
Light Knight : 564 (+69)
Singelli : 363 (+57)
pray75 : 289 (+10)
Eva-Janova_: 191 (0)
mrfe_: 180 (0)
Hoochman_: 131 (0)
Kathrine May Thomson_: 90 (0)
thing1 : 71 (+71)
Eirinn_: 49 (0)
Pokefreak219_: -55 (0)



We welcome thing1 into the competition, who has a strong start with 71 points. Light Knight's perfect round boosted him to move closer to Surgiac, while Singelli rans away from pray75.

And now, today's question:

10. You know what? Women are amazing and beautiful creations of God.









Yep, I just said that. That is seriously the punchline for my question today. I have nothing else to add. (I either get admired by all the ladies by this genuine compliment, or hate mail by how creeped out they were by my comment . Whatever, let's move on)


The following question will list 6 descriptions of notable women in the Bible (good and bad women). Please match the correct descriptions to the correct figure. Every correct match is 10 points, every incorrect is -10 points, with bonus points from the time remaining. Time will be 2 minute. (Ladies, this should be easy as apple pie to you. If you get this wrong, you need to seriously go to the repentance corner. jk)


Ready? Set? GOOOO! Link: http://quizegg.com/q/70731

play4fun : just took the test... and what was my actual percentage for the 6 kings? It looks like most of my points were from time. XD


You keep getting the ones that only Bible Nerds (a joke... not an insult) knows. I think most of my points are going to keep coming from timage. XD

thing1 : Believe it or not, you actually got 5/6. Plus the 31 points for having that many seconds remaining on the clock.

Also believe it or not, Day 10's question is technically easier than the previous couple questions.

I think I did alright. I just hope it's enough.... *eyeballs Light Knight*

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: April 15 and 16 is the halfway mark of the month for this competition. Starting April 15th, point values for the questions of each day will be DOUBLED. This means that those who do well are more likely to take the lead, and those who don't do well are more likely to fall down the ranks. This point value change will be in effect from April 15th to April 28. 

April 29th and April 30th are our final two days of competition. These days will be known as "RAPID FIRE SUDDEN DEATH." Information about these two days are TBA.

play4fun : Really? 5/6? That is crazy. Educational guesses... XD. And day 9 or 10 was the day I got 5 out of 6?

thing1 : It was Day 9

Surgiac : You still have a great lead, you wont loose it.... today!

play4fun : I am moving up pretty fast. At this point, I might take over Surgiac in the last few days. XD

Light Knight :
thing1 :

Them's fightin' words, mai boiz! *cracks knuckles*

Wow, talk about fail. I doubt I got more than 2-3 right. And it took me almost a minute! I'm slipping...

Surgiac : That was not very Christian-like. XD

thing1 : The challenge or the knuckle cracking?

Surgiac : the knuckle cracking, and the "dem is fighting words". XD

Day 10 has ended. I got to see a little bit of trash talk going around here. Hehe, let's see how you all did. 

Current Standings:
Surgiac : 687 (+97)
Light Knight : 644 (+80)
Singelli : 440 (+87)
pray75 : 306 (+17)
Hoochman : 224 (+93)
mrfe : 212 (+32)
Eva-Janova_: 191 (0)
Kathrine May Thomson_: 90 (0)
thing1 : 62 (-9) 
Eirinn_: 49 (0)
Pokefreak219 : -65 (-10)

Light Knight could have joined Hoochman in achieving a perfect score, but sadly he accidentally answered Rahab twice in the quiz. Hoochman has now entered the Top 5 and has passed mrfe. He is also edging closer to pray75 and threatening the 4th spot. Surgiac and Singelli were also perfect and remain in their places. Some of you struggled in this quiz. It might be due to the fact that some of these descriptions are not as obvious as you would think, but most of these female characters are very notable. Don't believe me? Check these answers. 

Tent maker, recognized by an Apostle for her mission work, and explained to an evangelist the way of God more adequately.
→ Priscilla (Mentioned by Paul in some of his letters. Also mentioned in Acts)
Prophetess, sung a victorious poem relating to the sea, and suffered from a skin disease for opposing his brother for marrying a Cushi te.
→ Miriam (Moses' sister)
Mother-in-law, renamed to "Mara" after her losses, and was the great-great-grandmother of a king.
→ Naomi (Mother-in-law of Ruth, ancestor of King David. Some argue she is the main character of the Book)
Judge, decided disputes under a palm tree, and commissioned a general to drive the Canaanites out of Israel.  
→ Deborah
Queen, promoted the worship of Baal, and was killed by falling out of a window and eaten by dogs.
→ Jezebel (Queen Jezebel, wife of King Ahab. Many literary works use this name for an evil character.) 
Prostitute, hung a red cord at her home during a battle, and was considered a person of faith in the Book of Hebrews.
→ Rahab (I think everyone got this right)

Day 11 will be up in a little bit. I'm a little tired right now and will need some time to recover.

play4fun : I lost 9 points? Wow, I must have really done bad... *looks at the answers to the questions*. Mmhmm. Mmhmm. Mmhmm... Yeah. I think I did alright. I do not see why I lost points, when I had so much time left on the clock. Could you tell me my score whenever you get the chance?

play4fun : Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Miriam Moses' sister & not brother?

thing1 : Well, if I read my report correctly, I think you only got 1 out of 6, which caused you to have -40. You have +31 from the clock.
