	I know some people will love this game and I also know some others will just hate it. Yes, it's designed for repeat plays. And it's bound to be frustrating. I will give you a hint and say that it's not really as hard as it seems to memorize (without cheating) the symbols that appear for about 2 seconds. This is a concept that's been percolating in my head for weeks. I've been trying to figure a way to test memory skills and concentration that didn't depend on knowledge or language. I've stuck to symbols in basic generic "Ariel" font so I hope you don't see any "dominoes" where the symbols should be. If you do, I'm sorry, but that's the best I can do. Feel free to cheer me on or curse me out. I figure the comments will break about 2-to-1. I just don't know which way.

	tiramisucheese:	May 28th, 2011 at 03:48 GMT	5 points
	I love the concept of this quiz. There is definitely a lot of replay value. The only issue I'm having is that I'm playing from a small laptop, so it's nearly impossible to see what the next sequence of symbols is when typing in an answer for one of the bottom rows.

	junebugfl:	May 28th, 2011 at 03:51 GMT	4 points
	I'm having the same problem as tiramisucheese. The whole quiz just doesn't fit on my netbook and I can't see the sequence in time. Great concept though.

	Hejman:	May 28th, 2011 at 03:59 GMT	4 points
	Absolutely brilliant use of the quiz set up. Great, great work rockgolf (as always).

	MovieGuru:	May 28th, 2011 at 03:59 GMT	6 points
	I liked it, but it would be sweet if you could end the game when the player gets the "perfect" 40/60 as 60/60. There's just an accomplished feeling ending a quiz with an actual perfect.

	rockgolf:	May 28th, 2011 at 04:07 GMT	4 points
	@MovieGuru: I'd like that too, but the "forced order" makes setting the rest of the answers correct impossible. (Unless someone has a really clever idea.) You'll have to take comfort in the knowledge that anyone getting over 40 on this quiz has to be cheating. Yes, that's a challenge.

	puckett86:	May 28th, 2011 at 04:21 GMT	4 points
	@rockgolf Since the order is the same every time, you could make the last one reveal a secret code that needs to be typed in all 20 remaining boxes. Then it's up to the player to find all the remaining boxes. And if you decide to do this, I have a really good idea for the secret code so let me know.

	rockgolf:	May 28th, 2011 at 04:22 GMT	2 points
	@tiramisucheese & junebugfl: Not sure if it'll help or make it worse, but I've changed the layout from 4 columns to 5. There are 60 cells, so I can split at 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 columns. #factorials

	rockgolf:	May 28th, 2011 at 04:25 GMT	1 point
	@puckett86: So they'd have to enter the same code 20 times and try to find the 20 combinations they hadn't previously selected? Nah, I'd rather keep the "40 is highest possible score" idea.

	puckett86:	May 28th, 2011 at 04:29 GMT	4 points
	But they wouldn't actually have to find anything. With answer in order, once you've answered for a box, you can no longer click on it. So it would just be a matter of copying and pasting (or typing the short code). Up to you of course...your quiz. Neat idea overall though.

	rockgolf:	May 28th, 2011 at 05:06 GMT	3 points
	True. True. But those few who've made it to the end would cry "foul". No, let's keep that last column of results permanently virgin territory.

	olegauchos:	May 28th, 2011 at 08:37 GMT	6 points
	This is a fantastic idea for a quiz...my only complaint is that it is too long. I was 22 for 22 and stopped because I was over it. Maybe it's just me, but otherwise an awesome idea.

	WyvernSabres:	May 28th, 2011 at 10:58 GMT	5 points
	If only they did appear for "about 2 seconds"! It was < 1 second for me, but that doesn't outweigh what a great quiz this is.

	godpaul25:	May 28th, 2011 at 11:30 GMT	1 point
	@rockgolf: Simple solution, you flash a unique code with the pattern that they have to enter for each answer. I.e (▼♥●♦ safe) (●◊■◊ code) (▲●♥● lock). You then program each wrong code as the wrong answer for each pattern... I.e (▲●♥● safe/code/rock/golf/etc/etc ee). Then you could do it 40/40, but that may be too much to read on a flash quiz. Only way you could do it properly though

	rockgolf:	May 28th, 2011 at 13:31 GMT	1 point
	To those who indicate the clock runs too long, you can always click the "Give up" button that appears after 17 seconds. Your score is still recorded.

	rockgolf:	May 28th, 2011 at 17:29 GMT	1 point
	Interesting that the "first step" in this chain is only solved about 75% of the time. I guess that means about 25% of people either aren't reading the instructions or starting further down the list.

	Very clever idea but as @olegachuos said, I think it's a little too long, I got kinda bored anyway. Maybe longer but fewer codes next time?

	Completely unrelated to the game, but how do you get the multiple lines in the game note? Even if that's just an editor ability is there a way to get a return in at least so that if I have two separate notes they don't run together so much?

	teh_DR:	Jun 4th, 2011 at 02:21 GMT	1 point
	This game... IS AWESOME!

	glyc3201:	Oct 30th, 2011 at 04:03 GMT	2 points
	Just memorize the first two characters. Never ran into any collisions with that strategy.
