I've been busy, I hope to do a better post on Saturday.
Meanwhile, follow the link on my sidebar to James' Junker's blog (also called Percy Jackson Fans Unite) to read his predictions for BoO. I think that it's spot on.

Current Standings (Now that I've recounted.)

Okay now that I re-counted to make sure that I didn't miscount like I thought I had here are the current standings for the quiz.

Since I e-mailed in results you'll know where you are since you know your own score. :)

The person in first place has 43 out of 53 points.
The person in second place has 42 out of 53 points.
The person in third place has 40 out of 53 points.
The person in forth place has 28 out of 53 points.

Thank you all for entering! The quiz will be open until someone gets 53 points or until January 30.

Current Standings

EDIT: I'm stupid. I think I've been miscounting points this whole time. I think that I counted bonus points twice by mistake, marking them as correct answers and as the bonus 2 points. Oops. So now I need to re-count everyone's scores. I'll be doing that tomorrow. No need to send in a new entry, I didn't delete the old ones.
Sorry 'bout that.
And I was right in the first place you can only get a maximum of 53 points. I had thought it was wrong because someone had gotten like 5 questions wrong yet had almost all the points they could get. That was due to my double counting of bonus points. Again, oops.
I feel stupid now. :)


Here are the current standings on the quiz. (Sorry ignore these, they're wrong.)
(I re-counted and saw that the maximum amount of points you can get is 59 not 53 but that will not affect your score so no biggie.)

The person in first place has 50/59 points.
The two people tied for second each have 40/59 points.
The person in third has 29/59 points.

Thanks for entering everyone!
And remember, you can send in another entry to try and get more correct answers!

Just letting you guys know that it might be a few days to a week before I post again.
I'm getting all four of my wisdom teeth pulled on Monday so I won't feel like doing much of anything right away.
If you sent in a quiz form and I didn't answer, don't worry I'll get to it. :)
I've got a cold today so I have just been laying around then I decided that since I don't post on Sundays I might want to tell you about my being gone.
TTYL!

12/27/13

Three people have entered the contest so far but nobody has gotten a perfect score.
I won't give out the names but here are the rankings so far.

EDIT: I decided that half-points are unfair and could possibly be hard to calculate so I'm not going to do half-points. If you got a question almost right it will still be wrong. Sorry. 

There are two people tied for first place with 40 out of 53 points each.
The person in second has 29 out of 53 points.

Feel free to enter again and try and get the right answers to some of the questions you answered incorrectly.
If there's a tie I'll some up with some sort of tiebreaker.

Micheal Vey

These are great books, if you like Percy Jackson you will probably like this.

I was hooked as soon as the main character (Micheal Vey) said that he doesn't look for trouble, it finds him.

Now who does that sound like?

I really enjoyed this book.

In this one Michael's mom is kidnapped and he sets out to rescue her but ends up getting captured himself.

It's a very action packed book and I loved it.

Now since I'm not very good at reviews I got the Barnes&Nobel description from the website.

(And if anyone didn't know, a $10 Barnes&Nobel gift card is the prize for my contest.)

My name is Michael Vey, and the story I’m about to tell you is strange. Very strange. It’s my story.

To everyone at Meridian High School, Michael Vey is an ordinary fourteen-year-old. In fact, the only thing that seems to set him apart is the fact that he has Tourette’s syndrome. But Michael is anything but ordinary. Michael has special powers. Electric powers.

Michael thinks he's unique until he discovers that a cheerleader named Taylor also has special powers. With the help of Michael’s friend, Ostin, the three of them set out to discover how Michael and Taylor ended up this way, but their investigation brings them to the attention of a powerful group who wants to control the electric children – and through them the world. Michael will have to rely on his wits, powers, and friends if he’s to survive.

Merry Christmas!

Hey Merry Christmas everyone!
(Happy Holidays to you if you don't celebrate Christmas.)

I hope to get lots of entries for my quiz so if you haven't entered you should!
I wont be online tomorrow or Christmas so if you send in an entry I won't see it until the 26th.

Percy and Annabeth say Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you!
(I don't know who drew this but I sure didn't)
