This is really funny  Wink I've already started looking for a topic on how activity, merit and IQ would be mutually coordinated.
I also wonder, why in this thread I don`t see IQ under member`s stats?

I'm seeing it right under merit Shocked

Also the answer to this question is where I live :O


In 1908, this city became the first in the United States to institute chlorination of its water. Prior to this the death rate due to water born diseases, such as typhoid fever and cholera, were extremely high.

Astoundingly, its just as difficult to get below 70 as it is to get to 130.  Roll Eyes

But lets see how long we can get it. Lowest one wins.
It's almost impossible for me to answer the question correctly without using the google search feature or GitHub, theymos was absolutely brilliant on april 1st this time as i'm sure those are some tough questions to answer. ha ha ha.

Thanks theymos, those are some silly questions for me. Admit that my IQ is too low to find the right answer without help. Grin

I have find a solution if you take seriously about your privacy and don't want share with others such delicate information. Tongue

You can bypass IQ Test using "Quick Reply" form Wink

no question appears, no one would know if you are a complete idiot or a total genius Roll Eyes
Of course you stay below 120 points but at least this protects your privacy
Wow!  Just wow.  I am a privacy advocate myself yet theymos outsmarted me straight away.  Was so blinded by this forum's cult I never even thought about the privacy issue with this entire IQ thing!  This is creepy.  A creepiness level right next to EU's crack down on Crypto anonymity!  Theymos must definitely be part of this entire plot to overrun the world by controlling our minds.

Now I have to dispose of my account and run away.  Any ideas how I can safely dispose of my Bitcointalk account?

What happens if my IQ goes to ZERO?
am i being stupid?

The forum automatically locks your account and you will have to bribe @LoyceV or buy IQ points from someone.  Cool
Be careful!

many say it's just April fools but others say something else.  for me, theymos is always full of surprises that make our heads explode LOL

No its literally an April Fools joke my man. He does this every year!

You definitely got me. Even this morning, knowing it's April 1,  the first thing I did was search for "What National Day is it" and only then realized it was April Fools, then fast forward to this post and was thinking "Great...I am bad at IQ tests and trivia"  Shocked

Something quick theymos whipped up, don't try to put too much thought into the questions being a little bit off course now, and then. Its a bit of fun, and the IQ rating is meaningless. As far as I'm aware the questions were submitted by anyone. Obviously, going through some sort of approval process to remove some of the duds. I do get the frustration when you've gone past the 170 point, and then one of these questions tripped you up, and your back down to 160/161, which then takes a lot of questions to get back to where you were.

A quick review of so many high IQs is showing me that theymos has really caused a lot of us to truly waste our time on this precious day..

What else could we be doing?

If you regard the questions as trivial you are are not alone but to some thee questions are anything but trivial... just look at the IQ levels next to the profiles  Grin

I do agree with you there is cultural bias in the questions, they seem to be about all things related to the USA. Here is the one I was forced to search online for in order to post a reply to you:

What are the colors of the official state flag of the U.S. state of Georgia?

Red, white, blue
White, green, red
Blue and yellow
Red and green


After that I had another test because new replies were posted  Smiley

We are now only allowing smart people to post. To prove your intelligence, you must answer the following question:
Richard Gere is a direct descendant of the Pilgrims who came to the Western Hemisphere on the Mayflower.

Yes
No



Yeah, that's the other thing; these questions all seem culturally biased (and trivial). Sad Why can't the questions be more along the lines of "Who built Osaka Castle?"?

I had been hoping for a wrap-around to IQ:65535 or something, but it seems like 0 is the floor.

Damn you, it seems I needed 7 more wrongs to get 0. Not sure I'm prepared to do 17+ more wrongs to see if negative is possible but I believe you will discover if this is

it's known that you need a big head to post on forums, social media apps should take notes
I have it on good authority that you need a planet sized head, in fact.

I'm pretty sure "in theory" that there may well be something out there, no?

The amount of correct questions you need rises very quickly above 170.
No wonder my brain is as smooth as my... never mind. Here I was thinking we needed correct answers. Embarrassed

You are become too smart for us mere mortals.  I have been making some pretty simple mistakes, and sometimes just some awkward phrasing of the question causing me to make a wrong selection.    Cry Cry Cry

Of course, any wrong answer results in BIG ASS time-consumption to catch up (get back to the previous place), especially for us members who  happen to not be bots... #justsaying.
Yeah, there's a lot of inconsistencies especially with how the question is asked. Some go on to explain where they're asking the question from, then others just say some random name, and hope you'll know what its from. I guess to be a part of the elite you need to somewhat psychic.
