	12/15. I missed the one about the horse, country singer, and whiskey. I'm not typing answers...sorry! =]

	Tom:	Nov 28th, 2008 at 23:58 GMT	11 points
	I missed the whiskey. That's what I get for being a teetotaler.

	is it really necessary to type in 'black' each time?

	Tim Allen:	Nov 29th, 2008 at 00:30 GMT	5 points
	@Tom: I missed the whiskey for the same reason. 14/15.

	firenzie:	Nov 29th, 2008 at 00:43 GMT	7 points
	I love these kinds of Sporcle games! But I missed the country artist & whiskey. Also, I expected Lewis Black and the Black Eyed Peas to be on here. Maybe even Black Death/Plague, black humor, Black Adder and Black & Decker.

	Completely missed the magic one. I kept typing black arts.

	HollywoodLeo:	Nov 29th, 2008 at 01:27 GMT	4 points
	Missed 3, the same 3 Kris missed. Jack Black should have been an answer

	HollywoodLeo:	Nov 29th, 2008 at 01:28 GMT	5 points
	@yankeessuck, not all the answers start with Black, and others are compound words with "Black" being part of it, so I think it's necessary.

	Bethannie:	Nov 29th, 2008 at 02:13 GMT	1 point
	12/15 I missed the whisky too!and the country singer, and Christmas ones

	Trevor:	Nov 29th, 2008 at 02:19 GMT	15 points
	Shouldn't the first one specify that it's the American Christmas season? Because there's sure as hell no such thing as that anywhere else in the world.

	Nezu Chiza:	Nov 29th, 2008 at 02:26 GMT	3 points
	13/15. Didn't get the country singer or the whiskey. Nice short quiz though.

	lyttmabatr:	Nov 29th, 2008 at 02:29 GMT	5 points
	I missed the last 2, was so impressed with myself up to that point. Especially on the christmas thing since i read it on a blog for the first time today! Would it not be better to note in the instructions that it is necc to type the "black" into the answer. Good quiz though.

	SillyStokey92:	Nov 29th, 2008 at 02:39 GMT	3 points
	I missed the country singer, whiskey, profitable business and exclusion of a person. I kept trying to put black book.

	Good quiz, however, I thought it could have been a bit more challenging, as evidenced by the percentage of people who got 11 answers or more.

	ared:	Nov 29th, 2008 at 03:22 GMT	4 points
	I kinda missed "blackout", especially since that is what happened to me after about two thirds of the quiz :)

	ElDavo:	Nov 29th, 2008 at 03:52 GMT	3 points
	10/15. I knew what companies having positive profit margins for the year was, I just didn't know what the phrase they were looking for was.

	@Leo, I have to agree with yankeessuck, it really isn't necessary to type in 'black' each time. Only two of the answers do not start with the word 'black', and one of those is a name. I think it should be amended.

	HollywoodLeo:	Nov 29th, 2008 at 04:47 GMT	9 points
	I like how "black ball" is accepted for "black list"

	Seth:	Nov 29th, 2008 at 05:06 GMT	7 points
	14/15 I missed the whiskey too

	Vernon Gonsalves:	Nov 29th, 2008 at 06:19 GMT	3 points
	Got all. Would have missed Black Friday if I wasn't shopping on Amazon just an hour ago.

	HollywoodLeo:	Nov 29th, 2008 at 06:48 GMT	5 points
	@Chris, following that logic you shouldn't have to type in "Pro" in the "Pro" quiz.

	Father_Time:	Nov 29th, 2008 at 09:59 GMT	3 points
	I copied black and just hit control v all the time, saved me a lot of trouble. Anyway I too missed the whiskey (I don't drink), the country singer (again don't listen to countrty), and I didn't know the horse. I kept thinking it was black stallion for some reason. If you're going to make a second black quiz you should definitely include a certain rolling stones song as one of the answers.

	davidr:	Nov 29th, 2008 at 12:40 GMT	1 point
	@Leo: You're absolutely right: having to type 'pro' each time in the 'pro' quiz is tedious, too, and shouldn't be required.

	C_W_Browne:	Nov 29th, 2008 at 14:24 GMT	3 points
	missed whiskey and country guy

	Justin:	Nov 29th, 2008 at 18:05 GMT	3 points
	I was expecting Blackbeard and Black Label. Got 18/20. Missed the country singer, and the profitable business thing.

	Catherine_F:	Nov 29th, 2008 at 20:51 GMT	1 point
	I missed the singer and the whisky along with everyone else. But I only heard of Black Friday the other day myself. It is not well known anywhere outside North America.

	MickeyM2:	Nov 29th, 2008 at 23:02 GMT	6 points
	I feel like a drunk after reading the comments. I had no problem with the whisky. ;)

	radish:	Nov 30th, 2008 at 01:21 GMT	3 points
	Great quiz, but I thought it'd be about the tracks on the AC/DC album, that'd be great too.

	Haman Karn:	Nov 30th, 2008 at 06:23 GMT	3 points
	What about Blackheart, the Marvel villain? That's a possible entry.

	beckleyman:	Nov 30th, 2008 at 08:46 GMT	2 points
	nailed them all. the only one that gave me a real problem was the horse one, i kept wanting to go with black stallion. i guessed the whiskey on a whim, believe i drank some of it in my wilder days.

	MrEnglishman:	Nov 30th, 2008 at 10:49 GMT	4 points
	Got 19/20, but "Black Friday" means nothing to us in the UK. Nor indeed does Black Velvet. We prefer the Scottish and Irish stuff :)

	bag_a_chips:	Dec 1st, 2008 at 21:02 GMT	2 points
	i was all excited cuz this game is also the same title of the ac/dc album so i was hoping the game would've been to name all the songs from that record.

	topoisamouse:	Dec 14th, 2008 at 23:47 GMT	-2 points
	I was solid until the last two. Perhaps those should be omitted? otherwise a satisfactory game.

	getahaircut91:	Dec 14th, 2008 at 23:50 GMT	4 points
	i have to disagree, i think that they should be left on, so its not too easy. but maybe use ones that would have a wider audience.

	lakers22: Why?

	DerKomissar:	Dec 22nd, 2008 at 06:37 GMT	1 point
	What about the Stones' song Paint It Black or the great AC/DC album Back In Black????

	davidr:	Jan 16th, 2009 at 21:39 GMT	3 points
	@various: Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving so it's an exclusively US thing. I wouldn't have known it myself if I hadn't been visiting the US for Thanksgiving.
