This quiz was posted mid-July on the Live Journal Austin Improv community site.

Back then I scored "More Like Improv-Weak".

Tonight I scored "Improv Geekalicious".

I can't vote because you didn't put "Geekarino" as one of the options.

It has almost been 1 year since I started taking improv classes, so I thought I should take this quiz again. I just scored: "30% Improv Geekactular"

I scored 76.81818%. I should have scored more than that as that is close to what I scored over a year ago when I last took it. Oh well.

80.45455% - Improv Geekarino

A perfect score is now my goal. I have to get some government restrictions lifted if I want to perform in a high school troupe now, though.

Justin, I am wondering what you have above me to get your score higher. How long have you been improvising again?

47% - Improv Geekarama

I guess not taking any eight-week long improv classes set me back in the geek-quiz. And I don't know some of those chicago-related inside jokes.
Though, I have performed on a high school troupe. Not the best 'prov, but a nice springboard.

I think i'm somewhere between %50 - %65. I don't keep track of things or know the names of things. I just like to improvise more than I like to do most other things.

They call me Dollar Bill 'cause I always make sense.

How many bonus points does one get if they love improv as much as the next guy but don't need a quiz to verify it?
