I guess I’m a cool kid (87%).

I’m sure Martin would be proud. :smiley:

I got 87% after making a fast click mistake… still good for a quasi noob :smiley:

Nice - I enjoy stimulating the brain in the AM. I can’t get 6/8 to submit though, so I’m stuck.

Edit: It worked on the second try so I’ll blame it on our saturated connection. 100%!

Damn multi-choice question, would have gotten 100% if I hadn’t missed that it was multi-choice. Just goes to show me, read things just a little bit slower :slight_smile:

6/8 · Scored 75%

Result: PowerShell Pro

I need to improve. I know a fair bit of it but need to learn and utilize it more.

woaaah!! 87 % in fast Go mode.

The quiz says I am 100%, but I am by no means where it thinks I am.

I have room for improvement…

Always have room to improve.

I like the PowerShell koolaid…87%

Ugh…

Only 75%. I have brought dishonor upon my house.

Where’s my sword? I can’t fall on it unless I know where it is. Get-Sword…

Hmmm… No results.

You might win a “Nice done” from Martin9700

That was way easier than I thought it was going to be… 100% but I’m definitely no jaykul

100% - but I would have been disappointed with less.

100% - But i think it’s rigged…some of the choices are blatantly obvious that it doesn’t pertain to Powershell, or any other scripting language for that matter.

I did have something happen during the quiz. On the first question I was reading it, and then hovering over what answer I wanted, but before i clicked it, the answers shuffled around and I had to chose the proper answer again.

As for the questions themselves…I don’t think getting a 100% would really consider you to be a “PowerShell Expert” by any means. It was a very basic general (beginners) knowledge quiz.

Hmmm
