The current "average scores" of all guest users is currently 66%:

The current "average scores" of all registered users (not including Neo) is currently 80%:

I don't include my stats because it would skew the results up, since I submitted all the questions so far. But on the other hand, I often select the "wrong" answer intentionally because I am testing the system for bugs.

Right now, still see some occasional decoding bugs where the answer in the DB is not recorded properly in the Javascript, and so a wrong answer occurs. So, the code is still not 100% bullet proof; and the debugging needs to happen in the web dev console, for the most part.

NAME
CPAN::Meta::Feature - an optional feature provided by a CPAN distribution VERSION
version 2.133380 DESCRIPTION
A CPAN::Meta::Feature object describes an optional feature offered by a CPAN distribution and specified in the distribution's META.json (or META.yml) file. For the most part, this class will only be used when operating on the result of the "feature" or "features" methods on a CPAN::Meta object. METHODS
new my $feature = CPAN::Meta::Feature->new( $identifier => \%spec ); This returns a new Feature object. The %spec argument to the constructor should be the same as the value of the "optional_feature" entry in the distmeta. It must contain entries for "description" and "prereqs". identifier This method returns the feature's identifier. description This method returns the feature's long description. prereqs This method returns the feature's prerequisites as a CPAN::Meta::Prereqs object. BUGS
Please report any bugs or feature using the CPAN Request Tracker. Bugs can be submitted through the web interface at <http://rt.cpan.org/Dist/Display.html?Queue=CPAN-Meta> When submitting a bug or request, please include a test-file or a patch to an existing test-file that illustrates the bug or desired feature.
