Funfact: @o_e_l_e_o become user who has the highest and also the lowest IQ
So when can I expect my profile badge certifying me as simultaneously the smartest and the dumbest person on the forum? 
Topic: IQ testing now required before posting - page 2. (Read 4486 times)
I knew it was April fool, because the length people were reacting on implementation of this or not, was so curious, because i know every April theirs always a prank of April fool by theymos, thanks, because this one is a very strong April fool
April fools! I hope that people had fun. It's always funny how many people are actually fooled.
Credit to Halab and Cyrus for the idea. The triva questions were from the OpenTriviaQA database by uberspot.
How the IQ score worked was that it was impossible to go above 200 or below 0, and it was supposed to be centered around 100, so it got easier to lose points and harder to gain them the higher your IQ got above 100, and vice-versa for below 100. The questions themselves all had the same weight. It was very easy to cheat (not least because the answers were all public), but just for fun, here are all of the final IQ scores: https://bitcointalk.org/af2022.txt
Would you consider implementing something like this, even if the scores are meaningless using bitcoin-related (and potentially crypto-related) questions? I think it would increase the engagement of newer users, and encourage newer users to learn more about bitcoin than their original reason for posting. Credit to Halab and Cyrus for the idea.

I was a bit disappointed with this one.
Based on this data there are 1620 users which have IQ below 120 (including me), so we will see a massive auto ban in the next week. I thought this event would lasted for 7 days since you said "next week" so I don't force myself to get more IQ to join High IQ Gang. However it was a good event and I don't see any problem if you want to implemented that on this forum, just to make sure who created the post ain't a bot

Awesome!
I love this community even more and even though we will not have all the ivory things
Have a beautiful day yall
I didn't even make the top 25 and I have nobody to blame except myself - Thanks for another interesting April Fools.
It's staggering that the amount of people that took this seriously is above zero, but I guess I can't be surprised after that year with the selfies.

Do you know what is this? Today is April fool and that is why forum admin Theymos made us fool. Nothing is going to happen just wait few hours and final result will come. Already several people became fool. I had also but latter I remembered to know today is april fool.
As it is started 2nd April on the forum I have just checked and came to know that the iq ranking has been vanished as I told earlier that it is for April fool and that has come in front that my imagination is true. Now all can feel free that there is not such a option for now. Who have enjoyed the feature? 
That it turns out that in the world there are people as stupid as me in answering questions. Lol
When there is a question about ants walking 5 meters/day and back 4 meters, so in how many days 20 meters will be achieved. I immediately took notes and drew this

But it is good idea against spammers and bots
Keep up good work guys

This IQ question is very interesting, I really like it to be honest. Every time I post there is a question that must be answered fortunately not an essay, will take a lot of time 
I Love Bitcointalk
I Love Bitcointalk It will depend of what rank do we have on the forum? I mean if there is a Legendary account with an IQ below 120, still gets banned?
Depends on the one who are posting. Expect newbies here to have a higher IQ compare to the high ranks.Google can works for this, so be it.
This is the funniest April fool’s entry I’ve experienced here in the forum so far and luckily not an intense one compare in the past where many are afraid for their accounts.

All Fools' Day 
Who told you that? Theymos is testing his alpha version of ivory btctowertalk in his holy fight against idiotism 
Am I the only one feeling that he gets smarter with every post I made starting from today?
BTW for unknown reasons, once I finish the text, it took a couple of minutes before I could post it. Hope this situation *cough* gets fixed by tomorrow
The questions are as easy as the official residence of the French PM. At least you can embarrass yourself with that, imagine failing in bitcoin related questions
Ok who can confirm this? Any one from US, South Africa, Thailand or Poland can confirm this?

I pity the fool who is unable to post.
Ironically Stephen Hawking would not have approved of such a thing, IQ tests ultimately are quite dull as a measure of people and what they are capable of. I know its a joke but elitism is self defeating for a number of reasons mostly that as humans mistakes happen no matter what and there is more we dont know then what we do. Mainstream is essential to me, BTC I'll never believe it can succeed without the Hoi polloi, the commoners it has to serve society I dont see that as idealist just realistic sorry I know this isnt serious :p
My IQ score is being wrecked by my diabolical trivia skills. I could google the answers but I refuse to dodge the test in this way. People will just have to suffer my ignorance of the state flower for Mississippi I apologize.

I've always feared this would happen.
