Preseason Day 5 - "In the Heat of the Night"

Housekeeping
First, a note: I grade the quizzes manually. The "check for accuracy" page after you submit your answers should only be used as an answer key. Bookmark the leaderboard page as I am updating scores continuously throughout the day there.
I am thinking about splitting Season 1 into 2, 3, or 4 divisions, depending on how many players we end up with. I will look at things this weekend and update you when that decision has been made.
We've come to the end of Preseason Week. Thanks again for being here, especially those of you who have already signed up for Season 1. Starting on Monday (other than the occasional one-off) the questions will only go out to paid members. If you're on the fence at all and have any questions, comments, requests, etc., feel free to reply to this email or message me on Twitter. And that of course goes for the duration of your time here. I hope I can keep improving the experience as I incorporate your feedback.
The link to become a paid member is below. Please know that I don't take asking for your money lightly. If at any point you feel that I haven't lived up to my part of the bargain for some reason, that you haven't gotten what you paid for, or what have you, I will refund you. But I hope you won't have to take me up on that.
