Ramius Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 why dont we make every poster take the wonderlic test and then post it next to your name/avatar...would definitely make things interesting... I'd say also put in an ignore filter based on score, but setting it at <20 would probably eliminate 3/4ths of the board... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly the Dog Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 AKC and I were discussing that this weekend. Have everyone take the test. Someone has to be able to get an official copy. Unfortunately, how would you monitor it? We certainly cannot trust each other. Someone would have to set up a part of a site where you sign in, take the test online and your score will be documented. Surely, when some posters saw their scores and it was a public admission, we would lose about 75% of our know-it-alls, I mean posters, including perhaps me. I know, I know, we can only hope.

Surfmeister Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 I got an 8 out of 9. They say it equals a 44. But I would still get creamed on the football field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eball Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 why do i have the feeling this would be similar to the "how do you shoot in golf?" thread from last week? TSW would be full of scratch-golfing geniuses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do offer an online version, but I had forgotten to ask about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartyBall4Buffalo Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 To Be fair we should be allowed to take it twice, Once this year and once again next year, and those with more posts aka our "higher touted posters" should receive copies of the questions and answers before taking the test a 2nd time next year. This is the only fair way as I'm pretty sure that's how they do it in the nfl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
