No Penny interest has not dropped but by the time I got back home the only questions I knew the answers to had been answered and as I don't believe in Googling I had to pass, sorry.

No interest hasn't dropped as far as I'm concerned. Why not let each quiz run until the next morning before giving us the answers?
