I wonder if that would change my performance…. For me it’s like “well, JetPunk’s changed to tomorrow, time to take the Daily Trivia!”

I should do them after I've been awake more than five minutes in the morning. I missed some easy ones today!

9/10, had no idea on the orchestra one, guessed the smallest instrument but no dice. Can't complain though because the Brat one was a total guess too but that one paid off 😂

It helps if you have a former oboist in the family. But trivia about contemporary music will always catch me out.

Dang. I could hear the timbre of the instrument in my mind’s ear and knew it wasn’t a clarinet or a bassoon… for some reason I thought oboes were lower pitched and picked flute, but that’s stupid since flutes are too quiet to be a good choice for tuning the orchestra.

Only 7 out of 10. Waffled between Greek and Russian and oboe and clarinet and chose wrong in both cases. And I'm too much of a brat myself to know anything about other brats:)

Question 4 is wrong... Bolivia has a star on its flag - the Sun.

Level 80

I only know the Sun as a British tabloid paper. If you are talking about the actual sun - or the image of it - there is definitely none I can see on the Bolivian flag - just three horizontal stripes. Unless you mean it in another obscure way which I haven't grasped.

Yep, my process there was Bolivia has a star, Brazil has stars, Israel has a star, so I just clicked the last option by process of elimination. Had I stopped to look at it, not sure what I would have done. Probably gotten credit for a "right" answer, but much more slowly as I debated between Bolivia and Israel.

Alas, I have no such excuse for missing the easy (for an old person) question 8.

Later edit: OK, apparently Bolivia has two flags, one with the coat of arms and one without. Perhaps not the best option for this question.

The simpler national flag is distinguished from the 'state and war' flag, which has a coat of arms in the middle. That one shows the sun, as you say, and also has a series of stars in the blue oval.

I was looking at the flag without the coat of arms. Honestly I don't know how anyone would notice something like this, but maybe I should put a bit more thought into my questions

I don't even mean to be dull or anything, I understand it was bad luck in choosing the option - Peru has a similar question with its flag as well.

Bolivia has stars on its state flag.

it shows the sun in the middle and also smaller stars running in blue circle.

the question was

"does NOT have a star on its FLAG in ANY FORM" so surely the state flag must be included since they have one

8/10 - not too bad. Couldn't think of the flag question and didn't really know about the Panama invasion. Guessed on the Brat question.
