The thing is the tests work by comparing apples with apples and when you get to very high scores there AREN'T any other apples for a comparison, so the values you get become increasingly bad measures of IQ. Certainly to the point that 314 vs 315 would be a pointless difference. https://www.quora.com/How-do-people-of- ... e-past-150 http://listverse.com/2013/05/19/8-reaso ... aningless/

So we must assume that in the Keeniverse IQ tests measure some rigidly defined property, such as how many math questions someone can answer correctly in 10 minutes. This would translate to the Vorticons easily enough.
Which means Mort has no reason to keep bragging about how he is smarter! :p

Yeah....I figured that would be the case since they and humans have similar societies.

But... did his first adventure involve getting stranded on Vortimars?
What you really need, not what you think you ought to want.

Actually I was planning on Vinn's first adventure to involve him going to Neptune :)
