The clock malfunctioned Sam.
You "and all your links" lose.
HA HA!
foolish time travel "warpies".

Here is a very simple little test comprised of four questions to
determine the level of your intellect, Spaceman. Your replies must
be spontaneous and immediate, with no deliberating or wasting time.
No cheating.
On your mark! Get set! GO!!!
1. You are competing in a race, and overtake the runner in second
place. In which position are you now?
Answer: If you answered that you're now first, then you're
completely wrong. You overtook the second runner and took their
place, therefore you're second.
For the next question try not to be so dim, Spaceman.
2. If you overtake the last runner, what position are you now in?
Answer: If you answered second-last, once again you're completely
wrong. Think about it...How can you over take the person coming
last? If you're behind them then they can't be last.
It would appear that thinking is not one of your strong points,
Spaceman. You would make a good weak link!!!
Anyway, here's another to try, don't take any notes or use a
calculator, and remember your replies must be instantaneous.
3. Take 1000. Add 40.
Add another 1000.
Add 30.
1000 again.
Plus 20.
Plus 1000.
And plus 10.
What is the total?
Answer: 5000??? Wrong again, Spaceman!!!! The correct answer is 4100.
Try again with a good calculator.
Today is clearly not Spaceman's day!!
Although you should manage to get the last question right...
4. Marie's father has five daughters:
1. Chacha
2. Cheche
3. Chichi
4. Chocho
5. ????
Question: What is the fifth daughter's name?
Think quickly you'll find the answer below...
Answer: Chuchu??? WRONG!!!!! It's obviously Marie!!! Read the
question properly!!!!!
Spaceman, you are clearly the weakest link...
Spaceman
>1. You are competing in a race, and overtake the runner in second
> place. In which position are you now?
I am not in "your silly race"
> For the next question try not to be so dim, Spaceman.
<LOL>
Ya Sure Sammy.
>2. If you overtake the last runner, what position are you now in?
again,
you stupid fool.
I am in first in "my race"
your race is irrelevant to my position in my race!
DUFE BALL!
>3. Take 1000. Add 40.
> Add another 1000.
> Add 30.
> 1000 again.
> Plus 20.

who gives a shit.
irrelevant crap from you is just that, "crap"
> Answer: 5000??? Wrong again, Spaceman!!!! The correct answer is 4100.

WRONG,
I gave no answer to be wrong asshole.

As usual
Who cares
Your irrelavance is saddening.

fuck Off idiot!
You clearly have no links to reality.
anbd only to crappy and WRONG sites.
simply because you "and the wrong sites"
have no clue about clocks faults.
Sammy,
you are an ignorant, mechanically illiterate, time travel, dipshit, asshole.
and nothing more.
HA HA!
and
for your records dingbat...
I did not answer any question so,
you are wrong each time you said I was.

Sam, this is brilliant :-))
You had me fooled with the first question, and *almost*
with the second, but I got a bit more careful and did
okay from then on. So I got 75%, or okay, let's say 60% ;-)
In a live face-to-face and more stressy situation I guess I
would have scored a mere 25%.
Real nice.
But what is *really real* nice and even more brilliant,
is Spaceman's reaction! Now that is what I call AFP,
meaning Absolutely Fucking Priceless :-))))))
I hope you don't mind my taking it on the list?
One of the best until now:

I would have you put to sleep for being

Oh goodie trick questions. Why should Mr. Wormley and
Spaceman have all the fun. And wait a minute is there some scientific
law prohibiting Maria's father from also calling her by her cute nick
name, chuchu, like his other four daughters may have instead of her
official religious or civil name? Can't a person generally be known or
have more then one name? How do we know whether Maria is an alias or
cute name and is in fact not really her official name but always
capitalized by custom so also wrongly assumed by the questioner. Maybe
Maria's father is trying to learn the English language and so officially
named his daughters with vowel endings but always liked his fifth
daughter for especially looking like the Virgin Mother he sees in
paintings and statues at his church so he always calls her Maria simply
out of respect. Also because of this you may assume Maria is her
official name because it is capitalized before father in the question,
and aren't we technically here in the US, under separation of Church and
State, never to suppose or to assume important names, even if they are
capitalized, as always official civil ones? Remember, Tricky Nicky for
President Nixon and Slick Willie for President Clinton, both known
religious and civil public men but their common capitalized names are
not their official names? Why is normally serious Mr. Wormley trying to
trick Spaceman with funny bias questions when math itself is filled with
paradoxes? And why did he assume the brilliant Spaceman would fall for
the trick questions posed by the brilliant Mr.Wormley himself? We know
languish can be just as ambiguous as math. Respect for frame of
reference like customs is very important, your frame may not be the same
as mine. Intelligence comes from hopefully objectively understanding
those differences and seeing the whole picture. Trick questions can be
fun if you're doing the questioning and know the answers. But like
serious Spaceman indicates don't assume everyone is willing to play
student that you have by the known logic tail, for they may just turn
out to be a tiger.
Trick physics question with intelligence respected:
What is visually Earth space totally invisible but smells like a worm?
Answer with intelligence respected:
After morning meal happy flatulence of " Early Bird " indiscretion.

Note:
The " Early Bird " is not the official name of any pertinent species
referenced to but is commonly called as such and used and in particular
to this post for satire purposes only. No birds or animals were hurt in
the making of this post.

Technically correct on both counts Spaceman, and it depends on
frame of how high above and close you are to each subject. Big A for
you, science can be fun. If you can't trust your senses it may be
Relativity.
