bridge too far Posted 28 May, 2014 Share Posted 28 May, 2014 http://www.theguardian.com/education/quiz/2014/may/28/national-spelling-bee-quiz It gives you the result but I can't see that it tells you what you did wrong. This is annoying because I scored 10/12 and I want to know why Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNSUN Posted 28 May, 2014 Share Posted 28 May, 2014 On the results page there's a 'show results' button near the bottom. i got 8 ffs. And spelling was always my strong point... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rallyboy Posted 28 May, 2014 Share Posted 28 May, 2014 I got twelve. Course I didn't! But some smug fantasist always comes on claiming to have done better than anyone else. That is a tough set of words, some of which I would avoid using as I'm not certain how to spell them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buctootim Posted 28 May, 2014 Share Posted 28 May, 2014 (edited) I got twelve. Course I didn't! But some smug fantasist always comes on claiming to have done better than anyone else. That is a tough set of words, some of which I would avoid using as I'm not certain how to spell them! Too true. Like the best holiday or worst airports threads - people try and compete for the most obscure location to prove what a Bear Grylls jetsetter they are (aka stay in Holiday Inn). I got 8 when I thought I'd got 11. Edited 28 May, 2014 by buctootim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearsy Posted 28 May, 2014 Share Posted 28 May, 2014 I got twelve. Course I didn't! But some smug fantasist always comes on claiming to have done better than anyone else. That is a tough set of words, some of which I would avoid using as I'm not certain how to spell them! I got 13, they awarded me special bonus point for getting them so quickly. Anyone who can't get all 12 ought to be embara- embarrase-... ashamed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamilton Saint Posted 28 May, 2014 Share Posted 28 May, 2014 That was a tough set. I am an excellent speller, but only got 8 correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bath Saint Posted 28 May, 2014 Share Posted 28 May, 2014 That was a tough set. I am an excellent speller, but only got 8 correct. Then you are not an excellent speller. Piece of the proverbial ****. I got an easy 12/12 - made all the easier by it being multiguess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
