[center:qnjs26fz]Pretty simple here. Take the quiz, do the math, find your 'level'..

After taking the quiz, attribute each answer with a number

A = 1
B = 2
C = 3
D = 4
E = 5


Add all the answers/numbers up.[/center:qnjs26fz]

Level 1: 20 - 36 = Bottom feeder, good start but plenty of room to grow!
Level 2: 37 - 52 = Getting your feet wet, building some cred.
Level 3: 53 - 68 = A valued collector / collection, but perhaps still a bit lacking.
Level 4: 69 - 84 = A highly valued collector / collection to any community. Well done!
Level 5: 85 - 100 = What a remarkable collection and collector you are, top shelf stuff!

Take the quiz and post your score! :)

I got a 74 but only if you count the 5 points I got for collecting for as long as I have been.I collected somewhat when I was younger but its not necessarily a hardcore type of collecting.I only got what my grandmother gave me and what my parents would buy me at the local grocery store when I was that old so take it as you will.

Just a 46 for me.

I have to say though, on the how many people do you "let" enjoy your collection question, my wife may disagree with the let portion, and would argue it's more of a "make" situation. :)
