The exam has been rewritten for several reasons but mostly so that Mad Hatter can get a better idea of what kind of people are joining the Fan Club. Members who have already received their Mad Hatter Matrix numbers are not obligated to take the exam again but are welcome to. Some of the questions may be familiar from the last one. That's only because he's too lazy to think of new ones. Deal with it. Mad Hatter is not giving you instructions for this exam other than that you're encouraged to add your own responses on multiple choice questions.

By filling this exam out and submitting it to Mad Hatter, you'll become an official member of the Fan Club AND you'll receive your fashionably unique Mad Hatter Matrix (MHM) number. Throw a kid and build a bong; there'll be a hot party on the big town tonight. Or whatever.


e x t r a c r e d i t

What is your email address? *Required field - Needed to send you your MHM!

Note: Although it might appear amusing to fill out the exam and submit it with an enemy's email address, it isn't when you really think about it...For all of your hard work, your enemy may receive an MHM, thereby becoming cooler than you.
