It's time for Quiz of the Week again!



Welcome to the 153rd installment of the Quiz of the Week series!

Be sure to visit the master thread for more details of the series, and to sign up for notifications when a quiz goes live!

How it works
This quiz is conducted via Google Forms and there is no need to prove your score for this, as the quiz asks for your TSR username and I can see all responses.

Filling in a valid TSR username is a requirement for being placed on the scoreboard. Please feel free to comment your scores below!




Scoring
The form will automatically score the quiz for you. The prizes awarded are as follows:
100 rep
50 rep
30 rep


Happy quizzing!

Unfortunately I do also have to say that the Quiz of the Week team suspects someone in this quiz has cheated and looked up answers. The user in question got a score significantly higher than both the average for that quiz and the next highest score, and also got the free-form tiebreaker question spot on. We also had suspicions about the user previously but there was not sufficient evidence at the time. With a pattern of behaviour now established, we have therefore taken this action at this stage. This user was consequently removed from the rankings and the running for the rep prize. As a reminder, please don't look up answers when you play the Quiz of the Week as it only spoils the fun and denies people who play fairly their chance at winning the prize.

@Pwca could the rep prizes be given out to those in podium positions tagged above please?

Ah that was you? Please could you put your TSR username down in future? I had thought it was someone who had deleted their account. I'll amend the results post to add you in properly.

Congrats on getting third! @Pwca could you confirm you awarded Lugg their 30 rep?

Yes sorry. I think I kept typing it in wrong when I did the quizzes. I’m sorry about that. I only just realised this week but I will try to remember for future!
