Last spam today, I promise!

However, in the end I got unstuck. It's still not working entirely, but now I know where it is.

...What I don't know is the solution. I think I got it all wrong. I'll ask the professor tomorrow. Again.

A MENSA intelligence test. I got 14 answers ¬_¬U (1-6, 9, 11, 16, 18, 21-23, 25, 27, 32) Some of them were too country-specific for me to know. Answers? Here.

I got 14 too, almost the same (13 instead of 5). I know these things always seem more "obvious" than they are when you have the answers, but I can't believe I didn't get 28... *headdesk*

You're right about the country-specific, and I'll add "thinking in English" to the extra difficulty. :/ Who knows what we would get if this was in Spanish!

Who the fuck knows about the provinces in South Africa, by the way? I mean, except for the ones living there, and they might not get the question right. "Bah, that's not possible! Gotta be something else!"

...I sort of cheated on 5 and googled it. So I got 13 by myself. But I knew the number sounded familiar! Stupid nun school.

Yes, thinking in English is hard. I was trying to remember the Anglosaxon measure system. F = foot? O = ounce? That's why I got stuck.

Well, #28's letters are not so helpful. Especially the B.

Cheater :P

Well, it's a MENSA test. They're not known for making things easy, after all.
