What current score box? I can't see that at all on my screen
and yes I use IE6.

I use IE6 and can see the score-box and the figures therein!

I've found and fixed the IE6 scorebox bug. It's also now possible
to view how well you've done by line and by zone.


Yep now visible. For some reason I've apparently got one Jubilee
Line station wrong but I'll be damned if I can see which one.
Bizarrely the grand total is showing 324/324 and 100% correct.


I think that means that, while you ended up with all 324 names correct,
there was one Jubilee station that you had to have two attempts at.


Ah that would be St Johns Wood where I spelt it with the " ' " but this
was rejected. However the same happened with Heathrow and Kings Cross
and yet the running totals for these were fine.

Very impressive nevertheless!


To be fair though I did have to look a few up (DLR Beckton and KGV
branches in particular) and I also got some stations in the wrong order
initially. Not that impressive but it is one hell of a test though.
