Not a bad score, I think to myself. Then I see I beat only 35% of people and that over half know a Swedish backpack company 😭.

Level 68

I was one of the ones that did not know the Swedish backpack company. Fortunately I made up for it by getting every other one correct, although I was guessing on Obama and Indiana Jones

Everybody around here wears those backpacks.

Where I live people wear the Jansport backpacks.

"Everybody" is an exaggeration, but there used to be one of their stores on a rather posh thoroughfare in town where I lived. Of course, people here wear Jansport, too.

I just read yesterday who owns more than 50% of satellites in the orbit.

The real name of Indiana Jones is of course Henry Walton Jones, Jr.

"We naned the dog Indiana, Junior"

"You were named after a dog?"

As far as I know Tolkien's son, Christopher, wrote the silmarillion based on hos father's notes.

Level 77

Nov 15, 2024

No, most of it was written by J.R.R. himself. Christopher compiled and edited the material after his father's death, and wrote some passages himself to connect the stories and resolve gaps.

Level 66

Nov 15, 2024

From what I can tell Christopher was more of an editor than an author.

95% of the sentences in the book were written by his dad, however in many cases JRR had written multiple drafts for the same thing. Christopher's job was mainly to combine the various drafts of each chapter into something coherent.

What* word

Question 2 has a typo. Who word means "to read an internet forum without posting"?

Level 70

9/10. Absolutely lucky guess on the backpack thing. Based on fjall, sounds like fall, you go hiking in the fall, you need a backpack to hike. Whatever works, right? I almost said SpaceX, but decided that couldn't possibly be right and went for China. So, that didn't work.

Exactly the same for me.

My first 10/10, GG!

Level 89

Nov 15, 2024

Not a great showing for me today - 8/10

Level 36

Nov 15, 2024

I was actually proud of myself for getting 8/10! I usually do far worse!
