Interesting test. I took it twice since I didn't quite understand the instructions the first time.
Word of advice they dont put in any hyphenation which is what tripped me up the first time meaning sleep-walk is sleepwalk and I was scoring those as not a word which screwed up my score
I got a 90% what do you think this nefarious crew of rum swilling grogs can do?

Me fail English? That's unpossible! :P
Only managed 80%.
71% for a non-native speaker ... just enough to post here I hope.
89%. I question "dishful" and "imagability".
At 77%, I have to say that this test is rigged, rigged, I tells ya.
I got 87. I managed to avoid choosing any of the phony words at least.
What did I score? I take that to the grave.

Cromulently so
You said yes to 66% of the existing words. <-- yes, i knew "braless" ^-^
You said yes to 0% of the nonwords. <-- when in doubt i had hit NO, as ordered
This gives you a corrected score of 66% - 0% = 66%.
This is fairly high level for a native speaker <-- what ? i am not a native speaker
Actually with so many newly made-up words (e.g., selfie, tweet, bling, noob, etc) I found myself hesitating and second-guessing over several of the "words". Fake test words today, accepted English and in the dictionary tomorrow.
