Welcome to my 10,000 post contest of Impossible Trivia. Everybody who has been here at least 90 days and made at least 50 posts can play. Like the last time you need to get a passing grade to win the contest. So the first person to get 10 points will win. For every correct answer you get one point. For every incorrect or skipped answer you lose one point. Question 15 has an extra credit question which will not count against you if you get it wrong or skip it but will count for you if you get it right.

Post your answers and I will give you a score. I won’t say which are correct or which are wrong, just a score. Let’s just see if you can break some of my “Google proof” questions. Good Luck to all!
