Now and then I announce a prize for the highest scorer on a particular test before a particular date. This is to encourage people to take that test, so that more data will come in for norming and other statistics. Below is list of awards thus won; the first was called Prize For Genius, the later ones will be called Prize of the Beheaded Man, after the winner of the Prize For Genius.
