Thanks, tried that and logged in with password refresh. Then Arbiter said error and will not do anything else (numerous times).

I guess if TASO wants us to take a test they need to put it on their website! I am done with Arbiter

Go to arbiter, same place you went to renew dues to TASO. I'd wear a helmet. Some of these questions will make you want to bang your head on the desk.

Tried Arbiter all I get is an error message. If TASO wants me to take the test they can put it on their frigging website

I thought it was pretty straight forward.

I took it and thought it was the best test yet. Read the questions, don't read into them too much.

Was wondering how long it would take Mike. There was a question that states defender was "directly in front." That doesn't give the distance from the kick returner which is the most important piece of information for that question.  One version was much better than the other.

Don't get me wrong, this was better test than in the past. It's just kinda fun to rag on the test and get mike all worked up.

I asked for an example. That is getting "worked up" ? ? ?

Took it an hour or so ago. It took me about 20-25 minutes with no book. I'd budget 45 minutes if you like to check yourself with the books -- which I recommend. An hour if you take tests a little slower than average. There aren't any additional points for finishing fast, so budget an hour, check things out, and you will get a good score.

There are still a couple of questions in my opinion that are a bit on the vague side. But then, I missed a couple because I was a dunderhead, so I guess fair is fair. The best advice I can give is to BE SURE AND READ THE QUESTION AND ANSWERS VERY CAREFULLY BEFORE ANSWERING. One of my misses was a multiple choice that I got right, but there was a better right answer.

If you're nice to Mike, perhaps he'll let you download his brain.

There are likely some issues.  One of the fellows told me one today offline and he was absolutely right ....it had to be changed.  I think it has been along with the one mentioned earlier re the kick returner.

As I mentioned earlier I took it in the Houston airport because I had a 3 hr plane delay. Other than slow internet, and my free internet expiring had no problems. None of these was TASO or the men putting the test onto the Arbitor web site. Good job guys.  aWaRd
