I got 30% percent right but then again I was never a big fan of dragons.

80%, I'm sure the two I missed were from the console game questions, since I've played so few of them. But D&D and WoW? I'm there. :)

Damn you trixy people, I came into a quiz thinking it would be mostly about dragon lore, to find it's about video games. What blasphemy, what video gaming site has a quiz about that stuff.

Gah me and my 40%.

80% on first try.

Not too shabby.

Was going to ask a friend who plays WoW about the Onixa/Nerarian one, but he wasnt online ;(

Awesome, awesome quiz!! I just *love* dragons!
Also, just because I'm a stickler: before "Drakan: The Ancients' Gates" (2002, on the PS2), we had "Drakan: Order of the Flame" (1999, on PC). Gosh, I played Order of the Flame to death. There's something pretty sweet about being a warrior with a glorious red dragon. Very empowering! =D

60%, and I only knew two of the answers. (Spyro and Double Dragon)
Which is a shame because dragons are my favorite mythical animal, and overall favorite animal if you include mythic.
Still, 50% of my guesses were right, so I guess luck was kind of on my side.

That was the worst dragon quiz ever! You guys need to stop making quizzes where the "subject" represents a word in a question rather than questions about the actual subject. I mean seriously it's a dragon quiz. The subject has so many vast giant depths to plumb why can't we see questions about it? Not one question about dragons in actual real mythologies?

That WAS a great game- a little unpolished by today's standards, but oh so much fun. Glad to see others enjoyed it, too!

Only got 1 out of 10... Not at all interested WoW or D&D, so I guess I was doomed from the start in hindsight.

Although, 10 questions about dragons and not even one related to Monster Hunter? Half the big-bads in those games you could describe as a dragon!
Actually wyverns are a completely different mythological creature then dragons. Look them up. Though I DO think this quiz was unfair due to it being about pop culture references pretty much. If it was on the actual mythology I could've totally aced this!

Will there be a Starcraft quiz later this week or next week? I've been brushing up on my lore in preparation for SC2, and half-expected that to be the theme of this week's quiz.

Quite right. I was really excited for this quiz but it was a real letdown. Maybe someone should submit a "proper" dragon quiz and ask for a badge to go with it?

Some sample questions might be:

Q: Blue Dragons in the D&D Lore tand to live in which area?

a. Mountains
b. Deserts
c. Oceans
d. Tundras

or

Q: What is the name of the principle Dragon Diety of Sumerian mythology?

a. Marduk
b. Habbakuk
c. Cyenka
d. Tiamat

I only knew one question answer just right off the top of my head, and that is my childhood dragon friend, Spyro. He was the most badass dragon of all time when I was a kid.

Indeed, it was a bit. That cliffhanger at the end was particularly unnerving. But still, it had decent voice acting, the gameplay was easy to get into, and it was just plain fun. I mean, seriously... A giant, red dragon... That you're *bonded* to!... How cool is that, I ask you!

Badges? Do we get any stinking badges???
No, no badges for this quiz.
Darn. While I usually don't care about badges, I really would have loved a dragon-themed badge. =(

Anyway, I got 6 out of 10. Not too shabby for someone who didn't know most of the media involved. That said, dragons are fascinating creatures and it's little wonder that they have been explored so many times in various shapes and sizes.
