I remember hardly anything about the test now. In fact, I remember the Local test better than the Nats test. xP

Lol, me too. =P

Oh, well, I thought we started about 9:00 am, and were finished somewhere around 10:30...? Anyway. xD 4 weeks ago. Wow. *wants to go back*

No, tomorrow will be the 17th, when we got to Nats.. So in two days it will be when we tested. ;P

Today is Wednesday. :P

But it's not the 18th. :P

She said "28 days", which is four weeks, not a month. ;P

^ xD

Who knows. Maybe they'll post them when the rankings are released.

I guess not. xP

Yes, me too. I remembered a lot right after the Nationals test, but I don't any more :). I just remember that I kept on starting to answer one thing, and then realized that I was wrong.

I'm waiting to look at scores until my family's all around, but I think that they're released!!!!!!!!!!!!

Go this link: http://www.biblebee.org/page.php?name=nationals.scores

Yayy! xD Where did you place? =D

#46. Moved up two spots. What did you place?

Yay! Great job! xD
I was #34th, Praise God! :) I moved 12 places down from locals, lol. xP

Thanks! Great job to you too!

How did you do in orals? :)

Wow. So I don't get how the scores work… does anyone know what a perfect oral score would have been?

Yay that the scores are out - incredible job, everyone!!!

@Katrina: Someone on G+ said that orals is worth 4.5 points, if that helps.

Oh, thanks, Elizabeth!

Yayyy! Congrats guys!!! :D

BB sent out an explanation for the score mix-up, so you can check your emails for that :)

Some friends of mine are hoping to do a Bible memorizing program for their church, and they were wondering about how the Bible Bee does the judging for thw oral round of the BB. I was unable to accordingly explain it for them :/ I was wondering if someone here could either type up the jist of how the judgeing is done, or give me a link the the 'rule book'…. something like that?

Here's a link to the rule book: https://www.biblebee.org/userfiles/famdocuments/Rule%20Book%202015%20V3.1.pdf. I think it will work even if you are not logged in to your Bible Bee account.

Bible Bee season must be over…no one has posted on a BB topic in 5 days. :'(

It's so sad :'(

Not quite sure where to ask this.

I noticed (ages ago when I was studying John 12) that it seems like there would be a really enlightening cross-reference for John 12:20-23(etc). It sounds like the event of the Gentiles asking to speak with Jesus was some sort of sign that "The hour [had] come for the Son of Man to be glorified." I looked for a prophecy that would indicate that, but didn't find anything. Does anyone else think that there is a connection there? Any suggestions?

The fact that Gentiles were coming to Jesus was a fulfilment of prophecies like Isaiah 60:3 and 42:6. Most prophecies about Jesus needed to be fulfilled before He died (and the rest afterwards). Other Gentiles had come to Jesus before (like the nobleman in John 4), but maybe John was trying to emphasize the fact that even the Gentiles were coming to Jesus before he started talking about the final hours before Jesus' glorification.

I'm still in shock =/

I am too. =/

What? The Upton Empire was so short-lived! Did he not like us? Was he given the foot? Does he not like cacti? So many questions remain unanswered…

And…. I don't know who the Uptons are. Would anybody care to enlighten me?

I would guess that he is not bothered by cacti- they lived in SA before he took the job with BB! :P But I'm guessing that you're right about 'the foot'- Katherine F said that he appeared to think he was going to be with the BB for a long time a few weeks ago at the GS, so….

gasps Whaat?

*gasps* Whaat?

Yep. =/ Did you not get the email?

I doubt it is, but is there any chance this is a prank? I don't see anything on the website, and it seems quite suspicious that some people got emails, while others didn't.

I obviously didn't get the email which doesn't help, did it come from an official BB email( if that even exists…)?

No, it's not a prank - it came from a biblebee.org address. You're probably not signed up for their email updates.

^That. And also, on his LinkedIn profile, it says he is "Seeking New Opportunity".
