8/10. not a great score, spent too long on remembering Ernest Hemingway books and thinking about the Aeneid. One paid off, the other didn't

I read both For Whom the Bell Tolls and the Aeneid last year, so those questions were no problem. I missed the tricky Jewish population one and the flamingo one in turn.

Same here but I managed to guess the Hemingway one. It was the China flag and the atmosphere layer that got me. The latter I had a hunch on but I ignored it because I was fairly sure I'd heard exosphere in a different context, whoops 😅

Wasn't the bird question featured before? Mostly tricky but fun questions today

Edit: Turns out there was a 'Which of these birds can fly?' question on September 4th, however the options were different.

We need a new nearly flightless group of birds every few weeks I think. Would probably be pretty fun to have sub-series within the daily (and ofc easier to think of)

I would adore that, please Quizmaster, do it

I remember ostrich being an answer choice on that one, but I thought the question was "which of these birds can't fly" and I clicked on ostrich for both questions.

Oof, this was a 5/10 and a bad day for me. For 3 questions it was a toss up between two answers. I got them all wrong.

4/10, by far the worst I've ever done :) Loved the jewish question, though.

7/10 and the Jewish one got me good. I did not know the Ainead one. And the Hemingway books. The quiz was pretty fun!

My first 10 in over a month, albeit my second slowest (I really had to think about the biggest group lol). Thought it was over with Hemingway but saved by a guess

The distribution of people who think that lawyers, miners, Americans, and lefties, are the largest group of people is surprising.

Seemed like there was only 1 sensible answer to me, but I was moving pretty slowly

I shouldn’t have missed that one. I knew the percentage of left handed people, but didn’t think about it long enough. I should have known that there weren’t 800 millions miners in the world.

9/10, not bad at all! The jewish one got me...

Argh, got 6/10 for 5944 points, my second-worst score ever. Two of the questions I guessed at and got wrong, and another two I knew and should have gotten, but I clicked the wrong answer because I was going too fast. Oh well, hopefully I'll do better tomorrow.

9/10 and I missed the left-handed one. I guessed miners 🤦‍♂️
+1
Level 70
Sep 10, 2024
I reasoned that one out. 10% of people (supposedly) are left handed and the US doesn't have 105 of the world population and i just didn't think 1 out of 10 people could be miners or lawyers. (Although with all those ads I was tempted to guess lawyers).

It resets at 4am UTC. Quizmaster lives in Seattle so it would presumably reset 12am where he lives

I was doing so well, but I do so hate Hemingway and thought 0% sounded a bit low. Ugh.

I'm a day late on this one, but really enjoyed this particular set of questions. A couple surprising and tricky ones that didn't strictly depend on knowing obscure facts. Kudos to rabble and JuliusLang for writing interesting questions.

I guess it is obvious, but was confused for a while as to what the groups were referring to. I wasn't sure what group of lawyers or miners were being referred to, so that took me ages.
