Coming from a Premium Member, this needs more time. I ran out of time very early and that was with my premium advantages.

This quiz is impossible now if you’re not a premium member. I believe you used to get a time bonus for completing a number but now the only bonus I get is at 250. There may be one at 500 but I can only get in the mid-300s now in the time provided.
