What's your Geek IQ?
Daily Mail UK ^ | 08/08/2013 | Victoria Woollaston

Posted on 08/08/2013 9:31:29 AM PDT by DFG

Do you know your cobalt from your carbon? Can you identify planets from close-up images? Do you you know the difference between Assassins Creed and Thief game characters or name the eleventh doctor in Doctor Who?

To celebrate YouTube's Geek Week the video site has created a quiz designed to help you find out exactly how geeky you are.

The questions are generated at random and use clips from YouTube videos, TV shows, How-to instructional clips and more to create a Geek IQ score.

I hit 213 out of 300. Not too bad.

Kinda fun for those without a lot of time to waste reading questions.

HA! To demonstrate just how much of a geek I am. The Doctor Who answer is WRONG, as we learned in the season finale, Matt Smith was the 12th doctor NOT the 11th because their was a previously unknown incarnation of the doctor, presumable between the eighth and ninth that is being portrayed by John Hurt.

I have no doubts as to my Geek cred, but if they pull questions from the TV, movie, and pop culture wasteland, then it’s not the test for me.

Something’s wrong with the screen size. I can’t see all of it.
