Half the questions under 60% correct, crazy. As for me, I got 3/10 lol.

edit: why did I pick Macedonia when there’s literally a country called North Macedonia 😭

If it makes you feel any better, Macedonia is also a region of Greece so you were 2/3rds right!

Yea, that’s the reason why I picked it. I was between Thrace and Macedonia and I chose wrong sadly.

Woah I got SUPER LUCKY on some of these questions. The last one I had no idea about, just guessed and got it right! I was about to call an ampersand an octothorpe, but I had this little niggley thought that a hash was perhaps not the name for it?

Probably should have remembered that Anatolia didn't have Greece or Bulgaria on it...

Some tricky ones here, had to take my time with a couple, particularly T.S. Eliot, but managed the 10/10 in the end

As an aside, I'm genuinely shocked at Tenacious D having the lowest correct% so far, I thought that was a lot more well-known! 😅

Knew the TS Eliot one right away but this was the first time I heard of Tenacious D. Takes all sorts.

I only managed to get Eliot through process of elimination haha, funny how these things can just slip under our radar sometimes

I knew the last one had to be a comedy rock band, which is why I eliminated Led Zeppelin immediately. I was between Tenacious D and Spinal Tap and I chose Spinal Tap. Have never heard of Steel Panther.

8/10. I'll console myself with the fact that one of my wrong answers had a higher percentage than the correct answer.

6/10 I was so sure it was Macedonia on the geographic region question.

Very off topic, but has anyone played EVERY single daily trivia from start to now? I've feel like there are other people who have done that other than me, so if you have then let me know!

9/10 - best score in a long while! Never heard of an octothorpe…

‘The octothorpe is believed to have been adopted by the telecommunications industry with the advent of touch-tone dialing in the 1960s, but it remains unknown how, exactly, the symbol got its odd name. The octo- part almost certainly refers to the eight points on the symbol, but the -thorpe bit is mysterious’

Bad news: worst score I ever got.

Good news: I'm still #1 on my leader board!

I'm surprised octothorpe threw so many people, not because I knew the answer already, but because it was the only option that clearly (to me anyway) had 8 instances of a visual characteristic (i.e. the ends of each line).
