Oh that was disappointing - I hadn't heard of one of them so I hit what I thought was the "skip" button, and it took me straight to the results of all of the questions without letting me try any of the rest.

I realise that this is because I am stupid - there is a warning, but I thought it was just warning me I wouldn't be able to try that question again, not that I wouldn't be able to try any of them. (It said that you wouldn't be able to go back again, but I didn't want to go back - I wanted to go forward.) Boo.




No, you're not stupid.

"Skip" implies moving to the next item "Skip to results" is a confusing way to phrase it. I guess "Go to results" would've made more sense. Weirdly, the actual skip button is labeled "Show Me Another".

Apparently, it happened to a lot of people. It's bad UX in an otherwise amazingly designed article.

Yep, deleting cookies via dev tools brings back the quiz.


Yeah, I fell victim to that as well. Had to open in incognito to get round it. There's also a really annoying scrolling feature where when you click in the text box the page scrolls down to hide the person's photo. No idea why they implemented that.


The same thing happened to me
