I agree, a lot of these quizzes have become a typing competition rather than knowledge quiz. I do not see the point in every quiz being rushed. Surely knowledge of a subject is not time limited. Too many people think that being a quick typist is more important than actually knowing the subject....... pity

couldn't agree more, I don't understand the need to rush through it, some people who are fast at typing could probably do this in a breeze but I don't see why that should be an entry grade to take these quizzes, they should be open to anyone to take to test their knowledge and maybe learn something, not a frantic typing test with a bit of random knowledge thrown in as a sideshow. (rant over!).

I agree for the most part. My only exception would be, for example, if enough time were given to type every country in each continent. Faster typists will always have the advantage, and I don't see how anyone does it on a phone without turning off the timer, but a fair balance should be the goal. I finished this one with 28 seconds left so it was adequate time for me, but no bragging rights. Along with the button to turn off the timer what I really need is a button to turn on my brain.
