  1. 78% for me. I guessed well on the ladies.

  2. 72%. Yes, the ladies were generally easier. Also the papal portraits stood out a bit to me for some reason. It's interesting how little one's visage was relative to one's notoriety. Rather different today, isn't it.

  3. 89% for me, but I don't think I spend as much time studying the Middle Ages as Grimm

    81%, and the only history course I took in college was American History to 1877. One mistake I made on Pope Innocent: I should have chosen the Pope who looked innocent.

  5. 81%, better than I expected, because it took me a lot of tries on several of them.

  6. 86%. (Two ancestors and my name-saint, though. I'm not sure whether that's cheating.)
