These are the results of Gerald's Lyric's Quiz #09.
60 entries once again gave me a hard time keeping up with the scores :)
Just kidding! You folks always give me a big time!
Once again the Dutch Officials made it to another close victory by only missing out at Warren G. and Moon Martin.
11 contestants reached the magical 100 points border this time. Great job, y'all.
Thanks everyone for participating and let's make Quiz #10 another big one... I put a couple of questions into #10 that I had already considered for earlier editions but didn't use them cause I thought they might be a bit too tough. With so many entries coming close to a perfect score in the recent editions I feel now's the time for the test :) Therefore Quiz #10 will run for 4 weeks again. Don't be shy to enter if you only know a few - it's gonna be a real tough one.
