Roaring Twenties Manners Test

[Tourbillion]

See if you have what it takes to survive the Roaring Twenties!

I found this interactive quiz on the Internet it is from the McCord Museum of Canadian History. I expected it to be really easy and for kids, but it was harder than I thought!

Well at least I know that I know how to dress myself! I think my score was 873 (I erased it though), anyone get a perfect score?

 

[CharlieH.]

Not exactly perfect - 942 points. That was a fun test, thanks por posting!

 

[Maj.Nick Danger]

Wow,...that was wild.

But I scored 923 and was made CEO of the company, despite a few mistakes. Not bad for having not lived in that era I guess. lol

What a cool find! Thanks for the link!

 

[Adelaidey]

903

Hahaha, the animations crack me up!
Especially if you get one wrong! lol lol lol

 

[happyfilmluvguy]

942. What a great test!

(The museum has a Victorian manners test too: http://www.mccord-museum.qc.ca/en/keys/games/17)

I got annoyed and gave up, so who knows what my score would have been. I was at the office and had to hire a typist and picked the married woman, and it told me something like "whoa, a married woman typist? Married women stay home and don't work." So I was like, well, why is one out there with loads of experience ready to work? And the game was like "..." and then I hit the "X" button in the corner of the screen.

 

[Shearer]

Ha! Very cute.

884... as in real life I did smashingly in the Nightclub portion of the test and not so great at Uni lol

Anyone else notice Mrs. Garrett in the University common room?

 

[czack]

884. That was hilarious.

 

[Tourbillion]

942. What a great test!

Yeah, I did a lot better on the Victorian test, almost a perfect score. Not sure why.

I should have warned you guys, the test is an interactive game, and so it takes a bit of time to complete.

Still no perfect scores? I thought you guys were experts.

lol

I got 1000 on the men's section, I'm still not quite sure how I did that good. I only got 884 trying to be a lady though. I did much worse trying to be victorian.

 

[Lady Day]

Got an 884, but got all the outfit choices right. Thats all that matters in the end.

[Mr. Steve]

Good Times

I got 903 points. Great link-

 

[Elaina]

I got 942 for male and female. Hubby got 884, which isn't bad considering he has no interest in the era.

 

[Amy Jeanne]

I got a 1000 as a Roaring 20s woman!

I got a 394 as a Victorian woman!! lol

 

[LadyStardust]

I got an 865 for a 1920's woman. I took the Victorian woman one about a year ago, and got 1000, and I took it now and still got 1000. Guess I know where I belong!

 

[jake_fink]

I scored 1000. Perfect?

If only I knew as much about the manners and mores of 2007.

 

[Naama]

If only I knew as much about the manners and mores of 2007.

What do you want to know about the manner of 2007? There are NO manners in 2007..........

I did those tests last year or so, sure, I was pretty good on both (the 20's and the victorian) Those are my times

I got 865 as a woman and 942 as a man. But in my defence I can't even point out Quebec on a map, never mind know it's laws :eusa_doh: Were it the UK I may have stood a better chance...I like to think that anyway...
