I went to type "metal thing" and was pleased to see that it was accepted at metal.

Depends on your pencil, doesn't it? Also, it should really accept "graphite" for "lead".

Wouldn't take eraser holder or graphite - it should. Fun quiz.

"Ferrule" is my word of the day. And -- as I just discovered while typing it -- points to Firefox for having it in their spell-check!

What a shame. It took us long enough to get "paint." Great that you accept "metal" for ferrule.

I put "bite marks" just to be funny to my friends, until I realized it was bonus. I also put metal thingy and surprised to find out it still accepted it. 4/5*.

How about Parts of a Ballpoint-Pen for a sequel? More answers, a bit harder. On this quiz, you can add mechanical pencil parts as bonus answers.

Writing shouldn't be a bonus as pencils have an inscription on them saying the company and number. Also, I'd add wrapping as a bonus, as on some childrens pencils, outside the wood is a plastic like wrapping thats decorated. Good random quiz though

this is most insanely addicting, weird, fun quiz and most unique, enjoyable idea for such a simple concept.

i love the acceptance of wood and metal instead of making us know the actual names! Awesome job.

@Doubleblack - have you never seen a pencil without writing on it? Also, you obviously GOT the bonus, so why complain? Why would you want to add one more thing for other people to lose points on rather than accept bonus points for yourself? That's just cruel, man.
