Good way to waste a few minutes during a boring lecture. Only got a 53/106 though. It's harder than I thought. There were about 10 I got, that I didn't even know were words.

69 dude!

Only about 7 or 8 of the ones I missed were words I knew. So about 30 words on there I've never heard of...yikes.

71 on part one. Missed several very obvious ones.

73/106, looking at the answers there are only 21 other words there that I really could have gotten without randomly mixing letters.

Part 1: 91
Part 2: 91

Not too bad. I found part 2 significantly tougher - more obscure words on that one.

Apparently playing Scrabble helps on a quiz like this. I play relatively often.

I found myself mostly spamming plausible sounding words at the end.

75. Had I been given a couple more minutes I probably would have had most of them.

This site is addictive. I found it a month or two ago when someone posted a hockey one. I am sure I have answered all the sports ones and most of the rest of Sporcle. It's a great site to kill some time on.
