	If anyone has suggestions about phrasing, let me know. Some of it can be awkward, I know.

	Might want to allow just "Reptilians." I'd suggest adding The Family/Fellowship House, seeing as they've been in the news a lot lately due to their connection with the John Ensign affair.

	you might want to add the builderberg group-i think thats what its called. Its when a bunch of leaders of powerful nations get together at some obscure hotel in europe or north america and discuss "things" but nobody really knows what they talk about.

	Great idea! I think the phrasing is very good on all of these, so no problems there. I agree that just "reptilians" should be allowed. Suggestions for additions that have not been mentioned: 9/11 "truthers", Obama "birthers"? Quibble: the moon landing one is a bit easy, you really only need to know what happened on July 20, 1969 to get it.

	I wanted to stay away from the more overtly and immediately topical or political subjects (The Family, 9/11). I was even hesitant to include the Protocols. I also omitted some ideas on the grounds that there were too many similar answers. For example, the Bilderbergers and the Trilateral Commission are often mentioned in the same breath as the CFR and Bohemian Grove. Similarly, MK Ultra and Watergate vs. Iran-Contra or Northwoods. Perhaps a sequel?

	Generally the term conspiracy theory denotes that it is nothing more than a 'theory' and is unprovable. Project MKULTRA is not a conspiracy theory, nor was watergate. They are both well documented to have taken place.

	14/20. I feel like the Brown, Eco, and McCartney questions don't really fit. And does Watergate really count as a conspiracy theory? Either way, I like the idea of the quiz a lot, and I think it has potential. :) Nice work!

	Uhh... when I topped in the word "the" the moon landing answer appeared. Must be some kind of glitch. You should probably fix that.

	Does the Skull and Bones society really count as a conspiracy? Its existence has been fairly well established.

Comment below threshold: show it

	@Stellarbird, Pete_Lawton, etc.: I suppose I could create a better description. It's more about things RELATED TO conspiracy theories. Almost all of these things "exist". Bohemian Grove, the Freemasons and Area 51 are all as real as MK Ultra and Skull and Bones, but conspiracy buffs claim there is much more to the stories than what is "officially" said. The Knights Templar were certainly a powerful organization, but do they still exist today, working with the Illuminati to blah blah blah? Who knows.

	@wikywakywu, WickyWachyJoo (that's strange): What didn't you like about it?

	scarequotes:	Jul 12th, 2010 at 16:52 GMT	3 points
	Fun quiz. None of the phrasing stuck out as particularly awkward to me.

	A secret society quiz would be fun.
