9/10 today, fell at the last hurdle, decided to go for the one I hadn't heard of, must've got Mahler mixed up with Marlowe 😅 Shame as well cos I might have been on for a new personal record there

I missed that last one, too. I knew all the previous ones (somewhat confidently). It took me way too long to shake Turkish loose from the recesses of my brain considering I made a quiz called “Belgium… or Yogurt” a month ago and DEFINITELY looked up the etymology of both. 😂

Glad you liked my question. Now I shall have to go and play your quiz

Level 68

8/10, I don't know about playwrights, and I have never heard Coldplay's Yellow

Level 65

Dec 7, 2024

Same except I got 9/10 because I randomly guessed the right playwright.

Level 58

Dec 7, 2024

You mean the wrong playwright

Level 47

Gustave Mahler was a romantic composer!

No, I think Aenin wrote that exactly how they meant to. Like McKenzie, they didn't know the answer to either question, but got lucky on one of them and therefore got 9/10.

'Yellow' is a great song. I saw Coldplay perform that song in concert at the Buddokan in Japan. It was fabulous.

Good questions today! 10/10 without any guesses for my 5th best score

Specific questions about the US are tough as I don't live there and have only made a few tourist trips. What is Area 51?

Level 68

Dec 7, 2024

Supposedly where the US Government keeps secret stuff like alien spaceships, etc

If I recall correctly, a bunch of Redditors tried to storm it earlier this year for some reason

Level 71

Dec 7, 2024

It wasn't earlier this year. It was 2019. And nothing much came of it. But while I think the alien claims of Area 51 are fake, there's a part of me that thinks the US government *is* hiding something there.

Level 86

Of course they are hiding something there. It's a secret base. Everything on it is hidden by definition.

Level 47

Dec 7, 2024

It's probably really a missile base.

Level 58

9/10 - aaah got Triton (Neptune) mixed up with Titan (the largest moon of Saturn)!

Level 83

Dec 7, 2024

Funny enough, someone questioning me calling the trident a weapon on a quiz got me to read the Wikipedia page for trident. There, I saw that Triton was a sea god related to Poseidon, so I figured it probably was Neptune’s moon. Otherwise I bet I would’ve guessed Saturn, too!

Level 89

Dec 7, 2024

That's how I remember Triton is Neptune's moon - sounds like Trident, Neptune's weapon.

Level 86

Dec 7, 2024

You're welcome! I still missed it though

Level 83

Dec 7, 2024

Ha ha, thanks

I was one of the 3% that went for Uranus, for some reason I thought Triton sounded like a Shakespeare character (which a lot of Uranus's moons are named after).

Level 75

Dec 7, 2024

There's Titania, a moon of Uranus.

Level 47

Dec 7, 2024

Triton is one of Neptune's sons in Roman myth.

Level 70

Dec 7, 2024

8/10. Missed 3 and 4 and got a little worried I would miss the rest, LOL.

Level 64

first time i could attempt my submitted question ... wooooooo...
