Woah. a slightly flukey 9/10.

It was a four way guess for the Shanghai question, and also for the composers question. Coin flip on the Cannes Film Festival.

I should have spent more time thinking about the Mad Hatter disease, I thought lead

I got the Cannes one wrong because I confused it with Balloon d'Or, the FIFA trophy. And then after I clicked it, I realized that d'Or means golden. Facepalm.

Facepalme d'or

The results of the Dutch question are really interesting as a Dutchie :)

For those wondering what the other words mean:

Gracht - type of canal found in cities

Klompen - wooden clogs

Zeeland - a province in the southwest (literally sea land) mostly composed of islands, also the one New Zealand was named after

I knew the answer was polder thanks to Civilization V

Since the decline of the Dutch Empire, the Netherlands gained renewed notoriety for the quality of their legalized marijuana. Millions traveled there to partake.

With broad-scale legalization across the world, the Dutch cannabis has been surpassed, particularly in the United States, and accordingly the Netherlands has become obscure outpost once again.

Wow, that's fascinating. To be honest, though, the stuff in the US is hardly even a drug anymore.

Ik loop op klompen naar het Zeelandkanaal dat op een polder ligt.

East Frisian guess at Dutch

Level 44

Dec 2, 2024

10/10, best for a long while, couple of lucky guesses on the Dutch word and Q10.

Level 43

I got it right but I think it's misleading.

Berber people quite famously migrated from eastern europe (such as caucasus) to the magreb region.

Level 91

"Quite famously migrated from eastern europe"? I've never heard that before. Wikipedia states they are indigenous to North Africa.

Level ∞

Maybe they are thinking of the Vandals? 🤷

Level 70

8/10. Missed the last 2 questions. I can't be the only one who thought bund sounded German.

Level 89

Dec 2, 2024

I definitely did, and then thought it was probably a trick and went with Shanghai.

Level 47

Dec 2, 2024

I did, too.

Level 89

Dec 2, 2024

9/10 today because I was very silly and picked January for the start of Australian summer 😅 Would've equalled my best ever streak of 10s if I hadn't slipped up there (5)

Level 49

Dec 2, 2024

Just 7 today. Funnily enough the Bund question was easy - bit surprised at the Hamburg majority pick. My daughter lives in Hamburg - in fact we are visiting her right now - and we stayed in the Bund on our way home to New Zealand from our 2018 visit to Hamburg. Easy Peasy.

Level 37

Dec 2, 2024

For all the people who always look in the comments and only see scores of 7 or higher, I got 4/10.

Level 80

Dec 2, 2024

I got 6 with some REALLY lucky guesses. Could have easily been 3/10

Level 68

Dec 2, 2024

I got 9, but three ultra lucky guesses and two I didn't know but had to figure out. Could have easily been 5

Level 91

Dec 2, 2024

I got 6, low for me but genuinely didn't know some of these.
