The garbage pail kid thread was a nice quick post count builder for you... just need some new themes for similar threads

I thought the thread would have some takers, but I guess not?

I have evey post in that thread except for 1.

I've been playing online games concerning the elements all day. Here's one of them:

Can you name the abbreviations for the elements of the Periodic Table? - sporcle

They also have one to fill in the Periodic Table, one that's opposite the one I posted, one for elements by letter, elements that don't end in m or n, elements that don't end in um, and various groups of elements.

I think they're fun.

=)

you would. our teacher made us play games to learn them.

59 / 118 abbreviations, 50%...I suck.

Wow, it's deader than Geor...

Eh, I'll save that one for another time.

I just found another one for S.I. units. I only got 15 out of 29, though. I totally blanked on farad and lumen, and misspelled Celsius on accident the first time I typed it in and thought it was just the wrong answer, so never tried it again. Oh well.

The abbreviations were my best, besides the easy ones like naming the alkali metals and the Nobel gases. And I did really well with the ones that didn't end in "m" or "n" or the one for "um." But I got 102 on my first try for the abbreviations. I only got like 55 on filling the Periodic Table, though...

 

[Darkstone42]

And I just aced the one on the top ten atmospheric gases. Woot!

OK, game's over. I'm here.

 

[dare2be]

If I could type faster I might have done better, just typing all the first 2 letters of the name for the ones I didn't know, and then going back in filling the ones I do remember (Au, Ag, Pb, Fe, Cu, K, Na, etc.) For the life of me I couldn't remember tin.

 

[scottflyers88]

i have over 3000 posts.

 

[scottflyers88]

what is tin again?

 

[Darkstone42]

what is tin again?

Sn. And it's conveniently located next to antimony (Sb), which makes memorized those two abbreviations easier, at least for me.

 

[scottflyers88]

now i remember.

 

[IPostedWhat]

what is tin again?

IDK, what is Google again?

 

[scottflyers88]
