4/5

I think, I had 1, 2 and 5 right.

But the score did show just 2?

Was it my thumb or is one answer not right?

Also I think, we had a couple.of the questions some month ago, in another/the other 7/11 quiz?

(Which makes just 3 or only 2. right really bad! ;-)

 I checked the algorithm and it’s all good, must be a thumb issue…

Interesting point RE: the 7-11 questions. I checked the back end question database and found this:

 

From quiz #65 some time ago:

 

Related to 7-11, but not a dupe as the five questions in the current quiz are different. Thank you for pointing this out though, it helps to improve the quizzes and keep the content unique.

Same here

 

5/5 but a lot were educated guesses...........

 

PS........The ham and cheese toasties in 7-11 are sublime!!!

[MrStretch]

Thought I had all 5 right...but my score was 4.

I don't see what question I missed. Ah, well.  Not terribly important.

[Wackamole]

ok so I had to look up the biggest 7 11 in the world just to be sure, cause I couldn't think of a 7 in Pattaya that would dwarf the rest.. Apparently it's that boat thing in Pattaya Tai.. It's different for sure but it doesn't even feel like one of the bigger 7 11s in Pattaya. All it has is a terrace and an upper floor for people to eat I guess, which I'm not sure anyone ever goes up to (not sure if it's ever open actually). The store in itself is actually quite small, the kind of small where some stuff you'd find in other 7s is missing. There's no way you could call this the biggest 7 in the world with a straight face unless you're trying to bait people into visiting it, and they're in for a disappointment.

Ah yeah it's also home to the worlds most useless/pathetic humanoid "robot". think doll suspended on a rail with 1 catch phrase and zero interaction possibilities. "arai a" is what it says as it moves along its rail randomly.

roughly half the time there's only 1 staff working the counter, almost never more than 2.

biggest 7 in the world!

[Vigo]

2. My worst score ever and I am a frequent visitor to the 7-11s.  The shame..............

Mine may not be a 711 but I have some doozies. 

[Bertik]

4 of 5 and then saw the extra question re: who has more 7/11?  I'm guessing USA  but really don't know.
