New Scaratings

Since I was one of the lucky few to live close enough to my ntn bar to play the games on 3/24/2020, I decided to screen capture the game on my smartphone, and post the questions and answers. Being new to performing screen captures while playing the game, I inadvertently logged out during question 10. However, I did manage to capture 14 out of the 15 questions, and all 15 questions for Glory Daze, which I will post on that forum.
