I was just wondering what happens if you start doing the quiz and get disturbed, as this has happened twice to me.
Today I had to step away from the pc then rush back to it, and I just picked the rest of the answers without even reading the question just to get it done.
What would have happened if I'd have just closed the page down instead? Would that be seen as only answering the first 3 questions and getting the other 7 wrong? Or would I have been able to restart?

Sorry Sam but once the timer starts, it doesn't stop until you press the submit button. Even closing the page won't prevent it ticking as far as I know.

No problem. Best to do what I do...make sure you can sit down with a cup of tea/coffee for a couple of minutes.

I've just done a test:

1. Started a game
2. Read the questions
3. Closed the browser window
4. Waited for 5 minutes

I then went back to the site and clicked play. It came up with exactly the same set of questions and it told me I'd taken 348 seconds so that's the 5 minutes plus the time taken to read the questions first time around and answer them second time around.

So the clock definitely keeps ticking :)

Thanks Glos, that would probably work out worse than getting 3/10 so if it happens again which I hope it doesn't I will keep answering blind.
