I had some lucky guesses.
Answer:
3 out of 10 I'm just happy that I haven't scored 0 out of 10 yet!!
Answer:
Hey, I got 4 out of 10 and I am completely clueless.
Answer:
Only 6 correct and I'll be honest, 4 of those were guesses because I was only confident about two of my answers. These questions were way beyond my limited knowledge.
Cut us a little slack here, Professor, and ease up on the hard stuff.

Answer:
7 out of 10.......I keep saying I know a little about a lot, but not a lot about anything in particular
Answer:
Only 35 more minutes left to take the quiz. Will "maybe" be the winner of this week's pottery quiz or will someone come in at the last minute to snipe her/his score of 8/10?

I promise, I'll try to make it easier next week in honer of it being Thanksgiving. I do have to be thankful that at least 7 people took the trivia quiz.

I'll post the Q&A's later.
Answer:
You all did great!
And the winner is: Drumroll Please: "maybe"
