I'm awful, I thought everybody was lying. Then when I kept guessing wrong I kept with tthe same answer because I figured in the end I'd average out. :(

3/10. I refused to believe the penultimate/poetry guy was lying because what he said appealed to my beliefs. Another danger - flattering ourselves.
