3. would be better written as

How many total dots are on a six-sided die?

10/10, maybe first time

I did the math: opposite sides add to 7, and there's three sets of sides. 21.

My own fault, I misread question 3 because I was too hasty, my brain immediately, did the equation for a *pair* of dice, whoops

Question for QM: Would randomizing the questions AND the answers for each question be sufficient to stop the cheaters and bring back the leaderboard? Or is that technologically unworkable.

Level 68

I'd think most people probably know 5-8 questions, so they'd only need to memorize the answers for the 2-5 they didn't know. I think they'd still cheat successfully to the leaderboard if they wanted to.

I vote for a cheater badge, like the Premium badge

Why did QM get rid of the leaderboard? I was never on it anyway, except for when I did it within ten minutes of it being posted, but it was interesting to see.

I got 9/10, I got the ruminant one wrong, but the last one was a guess.

Level 70

Bad actors cheating to climb up the leaderboard, which is too bad because the daily quiz is less interesting without it.
