Guess that Friend meme
After the second person to do this meme, I decided to give it a shot.
You have a total of 100 friends
You requested to guess 100 entries.
7 were skipped due to invalid content (surprising?).
You made 93 guesses.
You got 90 correct.
Doing the math for you, that means you got 96% correct
This would have been much harder if it hadn't been multiple choice. A couple of thoughts on it:
Yes, I really do read my friends list. In case you were wondering.
[Edit: actually, eleven cases. One of which was one that I got wrong -- an entry with the title of "snatched from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
damienps" and no body displayed because it was a .jpg and the engine doesn't display links or non-text content.

This would have been much harder if it hadn't been multiple choice. A couple of thoughts on it:
- You people rock for posting your own content and not just quiz results. Even when you do post memes, you're distinctive about it. I think I got all the meme entries right. In those memes that did turn up, the author had a distinctive subject line, or comment about it, or I remembered which of my friends had done a particular meme. 'Course, the "Name needs" memes were even easier than regular entries. :D
- At least three of my friends have a single "This journal is friends-only" post, which the quiz perforce produced. I actually recognized the style of each of the "I'm friends-only" posts, including aloyen's, which was only one line.
- The quiz engine chooses from recent entries where possible. In at least four* cases, it picked entries so recent that I hadn't read them yet. (I'm about a day behind on my friends list.) I got nine of these right. My friends have distinctive writing styles, not to mention subjects.
- So what ones did I get wrong? IIRC, the ones I got wrong were one-line entries that I'm guessing were links. Entries like: "Taken from [unfamiliar LJ username here]." Since the display engine for the quiz strips out links, I couldn't tell what they were links to, which would've made it easier.
Yes, I really do read my friends list. In case you were wondering.

Congratulations on your score. I got a 97% on my 45 friends, though this was admittedly easier than it could have been because I had just finished reading my Friends page. :)
Incidentally, your entry is broken by your misuse of the <lj user="someone"> tag. There is no hyphen.

It IS an easy mistake to make. Just remember that "lj-cut" and "lj" are the names of the tags, while "text" and "user" are the properties of those tags. :) I used to keep trying this variant: <lj-user name="someone"> ...Heh! Actually, it makes more sense to me, that way.

lj-user name= would make more sense to me, too. :D But "lj-user" by itself wouldn't do anything, and what other parameters would it take? Hmm. :D
no subject
I would suggest <lj-user> by itself would simply insert the dodad for whatever user you had signed on as. :)
