Updated comments:
-) I was surprised to see the first 5 quiz-takers to get the same score  :o
-) btw, if you haven't figured it out yet, question 20 doesn't actually count  :P
-) Am thinking about invalidating #6 because it's hard to understand what it means to "instantly" kill  :-\
-) Am working on a chart of some sort to represent the score results  :D
-) Uhm, finished the chart...in QBASIC but can't get a screenie  :(  - will redo in something else...
-) After reviewing the results, I must say it's a rather well-made quiz seeing that people missed different questions rather evenly - of course some questions were missed by many people and two questions no one missed (5 and 10).

EDIT 2/19/2007 - 11:32 EST:
Question 17 edited from "game mode" to "game style"

Answers:
Sorry to have kept you all waiting...  I just wanted to make sure nobody's still going to take this for sure - and I'm pretty sure now.  As of this point, I will no longer accept anyone's answers (for obvious reasons).  Also, don't try to justify your answers for #6 - I'm going to make it not count (scores may be reupdated for this correction if I'm not too lazy).  Have fun:

*Applauded*

Some of these questions have different answers depending on what version you play, either from changes or other modifications.
Also, you can play any game mode on any map. Really. Try playing HTF on a DM map, it's a lot of fun.
Anyway, I took it. Some questions were a little obscure.

your answer:

version 1.3.1 with all default settings!

and about the ctf maps - only some of them are actually ctf maps... the fact that u can play ctf on any map doesn't change anything.  Also, i believe u cannot actually play ctf on any map b.c they don't have flags... unless u play r/s in which case u only have to kill enemies.  btw, gj xtishereb - u currently hold the highest score!

[Graham]

Not even gonna tell me my score?

[I_AM_GOD]

0.0 14/20... I FAIL! T.T

[Lord Frunkamunch]

20)  How many noobs does it take to screw in a light bulb?

2; 1 to screw it in and the other to accuse him of hacking because he sucked too badly to do it himself.

[SDFilm]

Had a go, but I might have got some wrong as I didn't go and conferm them all, so it was a fair test and because I need to quickly go off to media lesson now....

[NinjaGimp369]

Did it, took me about 1h 30m. (1h 29m was thinking, 1 minute answering).

[xurich]

I had to think for a few minutes on some of them. Cool quiz, but I'm sure I missed quite a few.

[ultraman]

Booyah! I rule ^___________________^

[Snipufin]

I think I got pretty good. The stat gun question was hard. Can anyone PM me the answer?

[FliesLikeABrick]

Wow I don't know the answers to most of these questions, good choices

[Graham]

Seriously I don't want to know my score.... I forgot I even took the quiz...

[zyxstand]

haha, i'm thinking about invalidating #6...  I'll think it through later

btw (esp †), everyone's scores are displayed at the end of the quiz - uhm, i just signed on today and received 9 pm's...of quizzes...  so that should be updated in few mins

[Graham]

Woohoo 13
