I got a perfect score!







The 3rd time. Dang squiggly electrical crap!!! :cussing:
And those pulleys. I don't have pulleys in my garage!!! :cussing:

In my school, a 66 was considered respectable out on the playground, I tell you!! :hm:

Is there a spot in there that tells you which ones you got wrong? I didn't see one, but I'd like to know which ones I did get wrong.

I'm fairly confident I got that last pulley one wrong, I guessed 25 if I remember right. The other pulleys were easy.

I got a 92, but why doesn't it show which ones you missed so you can get better?
I thought I got them all right.
In fact I was sure I got them all right. :shock:
Maybe I should pull a Max and do it more than once.
Duh.

I'm not arguing with you. I'm just explaining why I'm right.
