As far as I know you can never take it again, but I suppose that might change whenever the test is changed. Either way it's probably a long period of time between tests.

In other news, I have an extra thread to brag in now!

The test isn't working at the moment. Is it only open to donators?

Anyone can take it. Why would you think that?

EDIT: Colder Than Ice: Eligibility for the test includes; how long you have been on DN, your stats, and your ban record.

Because you can use google and admins have google when they take calls...

**Jet-Black Nova** 2012-01-13, 01:28

I say that because a multitude of people are ineligible to take it and are receiving no answer as to why.

But if he used google than he has not Bragging Rights. I failed I got 13/20(damn confusing questions)

**Metta World Peace** 2012-01-13, 01:29

^That's what i was trying to say...

How much time do we have to finish it?

and I see that you looked up honest's rulings, so that means there is an honest question/s on the test so i know to be prepared for that Very Happy

**Twilight Sparkle** 2012-01-13, 01:31

I Been waiting so long to take this!!...
But im To Scared to take it >~>'
Knowing me i wont even be able to finsh it cause I panic on test xD

**AsherpotterCOPY** 2012-01-13, 01:31

First of all, there is no indication whatsoever I used google; links to the Wikia are in the test itself. Second of all, how the hell would google deny bragging rights? The tests says to use whatever nonhuman resource you want...

It was like 11/12 Something low ~>~"
I only got to question 18 I have a horable habbit of looking back at my work

**Eliwood** 2012-01-13, 02:35

I tried making a pattern like with those scantron tests I used to take in school. Make diagonal lines~ but then there was the multiple answer part which messed my pattern up :<

We all had to take it.

**TeamHOExD** 2012-01-13, 02:38

I have that feeling that some of the questions were a bit off.
IF they added more wording in CERTAIN parts then it would clearly conveyed what they were saying. Actually probably I'm going too much into it. Looking up the things that were unclear to me(after the test) and finding out if i was right or wrong. Learning is awesome, but sucks without a teacher. :/
(cannot discuss specific answers blah `-`)

Score: I dont feel successful.. I was aiming for 80%+.... puts it into calculator (YES!! Succeess Very Happy

)

Wait... what do we do after we are done?
We just wait for a reply right?

**ZombiehKing** 2012-01-13, 02:47

It wouldn't even allow meh to take it cause I'm awesome like that. It gave me an error message and told me I wasn't eligible. No biggie though.

Eh I figured It had to do with something about me being new to the forum. EH like I said no Biggie. Heck I didn't even know about the forum until like today. It's kinda sad since I've been going to DN for like 4 month-ish now.

**Tcbskater** 2012-01-13, 03:28

15/20. Hm.

I wish I could go back and review what I had missed.

Yeah, the Heads and BLS will review the applicants and do some background checks. Should be a while. People who stand out really shouldn't have to worry. By this I mean well known members with great scores and DN rep. (not the rep on DN).

**Joenen** 2012-01-13, 04:26

awww, my pojo rep won't count Q_Q

Anyways ,i got my 16/20. I REALLY want to know what i missed xD. There was one or two where i thought it could have been worded better, but for the most part i thought it was well done. Hence wy I'm surprised I only got an 80% I also think there's a randomiser and that there's more than 20 questions possible. Cause i received no question regarding (a certain card that someone may or may not have accidentally left open on their browser when they took the screenshot).

Is there a set method to how we'll be notified? I assume it'll probably be either a PM to our forum mailbox, or our accounts will be flagged and a notification will coem up wehn we Enter the Network itself.

**Adept VantageSP** 2012-01-13, 04:29

I am just saying, well established credibility and trust is good to have for something like this. The Test score can only get you so far.

**Joenen** 2012-01-13, 04:39

But of course. I'd be more upset otherwise =)

**storyteller** 2012-01-13, 04:59

19/20.
A few of the questions are worded in such a way you could take it one way or the other.

The web is your friend. It took me the use of the Japanese Wiki (who needs Wikia? Rolling Eyes

), but I got a half-decent score. Certainly better than my score from the last test. Hope it's good enough for me to get in this time.

**LittLeD** 2012-01-13, 05:52

Got 17/20. Would love to know where I went wrong. (Is there any way to find out?) Some of the answers were very confusingly worded such as the Dandylion question and some others.

Anyways, would love help out. I'm European as well so im oftenly online when there's only 2-3 admins online and 4k+ users. I could only imagine the stress on some of those admins.

"To Live is to Die, and to Die is to Live" - Resident Evil

Is becoming an Administrator really what I want? What are my motivations? What are my dreams? Am I taking this test for power? Money? Fame? All those can only be answered from within.

Everything I just said actually comes from something, but I bet no one can guess...
But I have nothing else to do on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays during 7:30-8:50 and 9:50-10:50, waiting for classes can be boring.

EDIT: Oh, I can't take it yet. Maybe next time. Good Luck to the rest.

**Adept VantageSP** 2012-01-13, 09:20

Being an admin aint all sugar and rainbows. You have to deal with people like this:

Dealing with idiots and keeping your cool is key.

I wouldn't get worked up by that, that person is anonymous to me and we all know trolls exist. Not that it matters for me anyway, i can't take the test.
