The Star Trek Discovery thread is haunting me.  We're almost at the end of the season so clearly some shit is going down, but I can't watch the show till tonight.

I quit the test near the end where they had you select the country in which you received your education and the US wasn't listed at the top like it usually is.  Homie don't play that.

Just kidding.  Got 82%.  Only one I got a perfect score on was South Africa-Australia.  It did give me Japan-China twice, which had a slight negative impact on my overall score.

Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

It loaded without any delay for me.

I got 76%.

dps

79%  Got at least 7/10 on everything except Sweden/Congo, where I overcompensated for being so used to looking at Paradox maps.  Only got 1 10/10, though, on Colombia/Canada.

And it loaded quite quickly for me.
