I'm curious what people think about this. It's a little different because you can't look ahead to see what to type next. It would be cool if the question marks went away with this format, but only a minor annoyance I suppose.

It is odd how the question marks won't go away, but like you said, only a minor annoyance in an otherwise great quiz and fun challenge. Looks great, and this format is perfect for this sort of quiz.

The columns didn't fit on my screen. Which made it more difficult.

It says at the top by the typing box what word you are on. You don't need to see all the way down the column.

43/52 the first time, 44/52 the second time. @WyvernSabres. As far as i got, I can hypothesize that the theme was 1st letters in order they come in in the english alphabet then the order they come in on a qwerty typewriter.

I noticed that the answers got more significantly more difficult as the quiz went on. You might want to change that.

I think that's the point... supposed to get harder as we get to the end. I got to generic (41) the first time and then freezer (40) the 2nd.

Fun quiz, and Im apparently not meant to get past freezer. Did anyone else try to jump the gun by typing "fail" after typing epic?

What worries me is that after the fact I looked back and didn't remember typing half these words.

i think the question marks are good and make the quiz more of an enigma (if you don't mind me reusing one of your words!) because it makes me want to keep trying so i can finally see what the last four words are that i still cant get. favorited!

Got 44, but the first couple I was looking down and my reaction to actually type was off LOL. I could have gotten 50, but great quiz anyhow!

Tried twice and finished without completing 'generic' both times. Hopefully this time...

The columns are too long, so I had to keep scrolling down to see the next word. I imagine others had this problem as well.

I like the pattern in this quiz a lot! It helped when I went to redo it. (first column alphabetical, second column started with letters in keyboard order, qwerty etc.)

@schmarah01: No need to scroll. Just look right above the answer box; it prompts you for each word.

@schmarah01- I kept scrolling too. And I feel real dumb now knowing the word pops up.

I really DIG this EPIC quiz. I'll JUMP INTO its QUAINT QUERY and YEARN for my DESIRED UPWARD SUCCESS. I WOULD do better but my HULKing APE-like fingers might suffer INJURY if they PRANCEd their ROUTE any faster. (Ugh. I'll ZIPPER my GENERIC JOCULARity now.)

You dont need to scroll down, the question is also above the typing box. so you dont have to glance/scroll far to see the question. vote this up so people will know.

The mainstream browsers - IE, Firefox, Opera - also support a full-screen mode accessed by pressing F11.

kinda disappointed that antidisestablishmentarianism wasn't a bonus. also my computer's spell check doesn't recognize the word.

Ugh I can't get past 50. This would be so much easier the other way. My wrists are too tired in the end and I end up hitting every letter but the one I need. Someone do this same quiz backwards haha.
