By the way: The way that Julius Caesar defeated the united Gallic army is pretty amazing. Vercingetorix had massive numerical superiority, but Caesar Fortnighted him (I think— I’ve never played the game). Anyway, if you want one of the most outlandish military strategies to ever work, go watch a documentary on how Caesar defeated Vercingetorix. 👍

Yes I love that episode of history. What do you do when you are far outnumbered while surrounding an enemy army while being surrounded by another enemy army?

Attack on all sides!

Incidentally, I’m pretty sure that the episode of I Love Lucy where she gives birth is reported to have been broadcast to over 70% of American households. That was in TV’s infancy, though, so maybe it was just 70% of TV-owning households.

Nooo my lack of car knowledge has come back to bite me once again 😅 Thought I'd lucked out there as well because before today I would've got question 9 wrong too but I very recently learned that fact 😆 Still, a solid 9/10, and one of my faster showings at 8,938

I appreciate the physics and mechanical engineering style questions. Probably as valuable or relevant to daily life as Pyongyang, the Rhine river, Taylor Swift, etc. And often omitted from trivia sites. Nice questions today, good job everybody

Wow. Is it pure coincidence that I submitted question 8 (with slightly different wording) for review just yesterday, or was it stolen?

I was wondering how on earth I wa ssupposed to know where the Olympics would be held in 20 years. Imagine my disappointment to realize that 2032 is only 8 years away. Still didn't know.

QM please please bring back the general leaderboard. I don't have any friends here! It's more exciting to make it a Jetpunk-wide competition.

8/10 today. I didn't know the answer to the car question, and I misclicked on Onassis when I knew her name was Bouvier. Drat!

Small suggestion: "What body part produces most of the insulin in humans"... key word being in humans, in other animal species the cells that produce insulin are located elsewhere (in the liver, gut wall, etc). Some (very limited,
