Correct! :)

And that makes it a wrap, folks! Now let's see how everyone scored. Please wait while calculating results...

...

...

1. Morkin/Rorthron (4 points each)
2. Daren/R-Tape/RWAC (3 points each)
3. Joefish/MatGubbins (2 points each)
4. +3code/Monkzy/MrBlaz/PQR/Stefan (1 point each)

Many thanks for playing, everyone. I'll try to put another alphabet quiz together soon. :)

Type "99" to continue.

Well, I don't really know what to say... <ahem>

"I'd like to thank my hands for always being at my side...

...My legs for supporting me through thick and thin....

...And my fingers... Because I can always count on them."
