Playing level is optional question... you can leave that blank or just pick the "Voodoo" answer, LOL. Doesn't matter really.

But a working email address IS necessary for me to send you the score results!!

If you don't want to use your "real" email address you can try using one of those disposable email address websites, but see the alert info on the quiz page about that. Using a disposable email address in this situation might not work... you might not get your quiz result at all. So some "real" email (if not necessarily your actual most-important personal email) is still a good idea to use for this.

(Honestly, who nowadays -- in this year 2013 -- doesn't have at least three or four "extra" email addresses they use for non critical stuff...????)

I answereddd the questions but was unwilling to give up my email and list my playing level.



Same here but I got them all right because I'm a smart fella. :-) What's the big deal? Just post the answers.

Awwww, why would anyone wanna do that? Where's the fun in giving away the answers?

SOME people have not taken the quiz yet, so posting the answers would RUIN it for them. So, no, please don't do that.

P.S. Seriously, this quiz is just for fun and we're not using it to "judge" anyone or anything like that. I'm not even bothering to collect email addresses from it since obviously the email used can be disposable or an unimportant email addy for people, if they choose.

Geez... y'know, some people are always just so suspicious of everything all the time... relax! LOL

For what it's worth: I took DBJT's quiz last year and got two wrong. One, I misunderstood the question, but the second, I forget exactly what the question was, I think a which is worse question, I got wrong. So, I was mistaken on which situation is worse.. I knew they were both negative. Lol.

Anyway, my point is this a fun little quiz. It's not reflective of all that much, as I do 'pretty' well playing blackjack for a living. :-)

(Although it should be noted that after I missed two questions, I did NOT receive an invite to join the Detroit blackjack team. Lol.)

Edit: in reading the thread, I see that I already made reference to this last year. Sorry for doing so again. (I must be getting old)

I took the test. I probably stank it up, but we'll see what the results say. If kewlj wasn't good enough, they'll just laugh at mine.

Heh... yes you do, indeed KJ. And your success and perseverance (especially as straight-counter-only) is one of my inspirations.

So can I put up an endorsement blurb on the quiz page as "Officially Approved By KewlJ"...? :)

Actually, no, you DID get an invite to join the Forum... and you DID register! Your last login was like last January time frame... if you forgot your login/password you can reset it from the reset link on our "log in" page. (I can't tell you your password, the forum encrypts that info, even from Administrators...)

BTW joining the website isn't quite the same as joining the TEAM... but the first is necessary before anyone can do the second. And by the way just being a "site member" alone is something that's worthwhile, IMHO, for any serious blackjack player. Especially those living near us, in and around the Detroit area... just FWIW, "just sayin'..." etc etc.

I took the test but don't know my results. I opted against providing my email address.

AAAAAA.... again, people! READ the info on the quiz page! Jesus-H... please! LOL

An email to receive results IS necessary. It doesn't have to be "real" email address or anything important to you, but I do need somewhere to SEND your score results!

That's just how this page's script works, and NO I'm not interested in taking the time to re-code it. I have better things to do. This page is DONE, it WORKS, and that's it.

So if you're not gonna put in a working email address, don't bother taking the quiz since you WON'T get any score result... LOL

I'm doin' it... fast as I can. Got like 11 files so far today since this thread has woken up again LOL

As it says on the page info, quiz results here are a HUMAN driven process and not a machine-one. That human = me.

I'll get 'em caught up for today in the next few minutes but I'm already late for heading downtown to the casino for a meeting... so any more quizzes today will get result back in email probably only later tonite!!

Ah, sorry; thought it was that in the beginning, but something you said made me think it was automated. Take your time, and thanks. I don't think you or JG will be knockin' at my door with recruitment papers any time soon anyway!

Again it's just a fun dumb little quiz... results indicate that you might just understand a little bit about this game!

Or you're a good guesser :-P

10/14. One I gave myself a "duh" on that I should've gotten right; the other 3 were new info/corrections to my basic strategy understanding (re: A/7...really?). So, better than I thought, and worth the effort to learn something. Thanks DBJT!
