	Ium ... ahh, now let's begin

	taylorswift12:	Sep 8th, 2012 at 16:23 GMT		33 points
	I have to say..."ium" really helped...

	AlexRandom:	Sep 8th, 2012 at 16:32 GMT		51 points
	Surely the only elements quiz where seaborgium and neodymium are in the Top 3 guessed.

	NyeTheSpy:	Sep 8th, 2012 at 16:32 GMT		4 points
	Got all of them except neon, of all things. "ium" and "num" really do help a lot.

	WyattsTorch:	Sep 8th, 2012 at 17:01 GMT		40 points
	Most science quizzes I start by thinking "I...um..." This is the first one where that helped me.

	Only quiz where more people got Darmstadtium than Lead.

	It's so funny that wolfram is named tungsten in English and not in Sweden even though the name come from Sweden :) (Tungsten = heavy stone)

	Sweeped... ironically I got tin last. figures.

	redhawk87:	Sep 8th, 2012 at 20:07 GMT		10 points
	so ~10% of people did not think to type "ium"?!? that surprised me

	socraticmethod:	Sep 8th, 2012 at 20:44 GMT		4 points
	Got them all except for... carbon. wow.

	sennomulo:	Sep 8th, 2012 at 21:49 GMT		21 points
	I had no bismuth attempting this quiz. I feel like a total boron. I was really sulfuring there, since all the elements without "-ium" that were once in my brain now argon.

	DrQuatsch:	Sep 8th, 2012 at 22:10 GMT		1 point
	Wow, how did I not think of ium o.0

	RobPro:	Sep 8th, 2012 at 22:25 GMT		7 points
	The weirdest bar graph of results I have seen I think.

	etes97:	Sep 8th, 2012 at 22:38 GMT		4 points
	This is a really cool quiz.

	ChileNoseJam:	Sep 8th, 2012 at 22:49 GMT		3 points
	This is basically the same as the "Elements which don't end with M" quiz, you just type "ium" and "num" first.

	jago706:	Sep 9th, 2012 at 01:25 GMT		1 point
	First, type in "ium." Then play the Tom Lehrer song in your head. Easy Japanesy.

	Sbb618:	Sep 9th, 2012 at 01:35 GMT		1 point
	jago706: did it, and finished quiz with 1:12 to go.

	Got 'em all... not often does Tin give me more trouble than Roentgenium

	jawa88:	Sep 9th, 2012 at 04:29 GMT		8 points
	this must have been a pain in the butt to make....all of the variations that have to be accepted for elements like mendelevium alone would be too much for me. major props

	Cirno:	Sep 9th, 2012 at 17:03 GMT		2 points
	-ium was a big confidence booster.

	chasmmi:	Sep 10th, 2012 at 04:27 GMT		5 points
	So 2% of the people who got Yttrium, could not find Flerovium. Who things of the 3 letter YTT but IUM never occurs to them?

	HectorVortac:	Sep 10th, 2012 at 10:05 GMT		3 points
	Omg, when it it hit me (IUM) I just had to play again; much higher score, but promptly forgetting Hydrogen.

	GuyWitBluGlasses:	Sep 10th, 2012 at 23:40 GMT		8 points
	Whoever scored 73-77 in this quiz: I salute you.

	Vails:	Sep 14th, 2012 at 17:45 GMT		2 points
	I'm down with YTT.

	hecuba:	Oct 2nd, 2012 at 10:20 GMT		2 points
	Fun fact: the fastest solution is only 26 entries. Here's one way to do it: ANT ARG BIS CAR COB COP GEN GOL INE IUM KRY LEA MAN MER MOL NEO NIC PHO RAD RON SIL SUL TIN TUN XEN ZIN. Anyone fancy creating a mnemonic for that?

	BladeSword122:	Oct 22nd, 2012 at 16:51 GMT		0 points
	was playing for a full minute before i remember ium #facepalm

	Acid_Snow:	Jan 6th, 2013 at 18:42 GMT		1 point
	Damn! I can name all the elements in full in 3:30 but not by 3-letter combos in 4:00!

	Zak6009:	Feb 4th, 2013 at 04:30 GMT		2 points
	Pretty sure the minimum you can do this in is 26. After IUM, the ones you gotta worry about are INE, TIN, NUM, ANT, GEN, RON, NIC, and SIL. That gives 101, and the remaining 17 have no overlaps so you'd have to get them individually with whatever.

	Ah damn didn't notice Hecuba. Haha.
