	Hi. Hope you enjoy. If you have any issues (about the quiz) let me know thanks.

	you couldnt come up with anything more significant than the departed winning best picture for 2007?

	manonthemoon:	Jul 29th, 2011 at 17:35 GMT	-4 points
	I'm not sure if that's a serious question.

	2007 doesn't work as a wrong answer for saddam hussein

	manonthemoon:	Jul 29th, 2011 at 23:07 GMT	0 points
	Thanks Leeny. It should be fixed now.

	@newenglander I just looked up what happened that year, and it was fairly uneventful. Most significant thing I found was the release of the final Harry Potter book.

	@loljunkie-benazir bhutto's assasination?

	It's better if there's a mix of political, arts, culture, etc. events. The Departed thing works fine.

	Stats are messed up

	JeroAdmi:	Aug 4th, 2011 at 11:54 GMT	3 points
	2000 is still 20th century, the 21st century started on January 1st, 2001. Great idea though.

	manonthemoon:	Aug 4th, 2011 at 12:42 GMT	1 point
	Well noticed Jero....I used some poetic license to advance the aesthetics.

	jonoob:	Aug 27th, 2011 at 07:34 GMT	2 points
	liked the quiz, maybe mixing it up a bit so that there is more (or none) for some years. I looked at the ones I knew and guessed from the ones I hadn't used

	cocky:	Aug 27th, 2011 at 18:16 GMT	2 points
	The year 2000 was in the 20th century.

	twelve12:	Aug 27th, 2011 at 18:58 GMT	2 points
	put all of the bonus answers at the end of the data section to make the stats work correctly.

	manonthemoon:	Aug 27th, 2011 at 19:28 GMT	0 points
	Thanks , I have done that.

	gttrsnp:	Aug 28th, 2011 at 13:28 GMT	0 points
	the first century was 1-100. there was no year zero therefor the year 100 would have been the 100th year of the century. next century starts at 101-200, etc. (hence why people argued the new millennium didn't begin 'til 2001)

	No Country for Old Men won the Best Picture Oscar in 2007. The Departed won it in 2006.

	manonthemoon:	Aug 28th, 2011 at 21:30 GMT	3 points
	Hi - it won the Best Picture Oscar in February 2007.

	To be precise, Bush didn't defeat Gore in the election, he defeated Gore in courts.
