Sandflies threw me off, and apparently most others. Only 9% so far guessed snakes.

Level 70

Mar 13, 2025

I said hippos.

Level 18

Mar 14, 2025

I really thought it was dogs. I didn't realize dogs were only half as many as snakes! That one was a great question!

Oof. Missed three in a row. Why’d it have to be snakes?

Level 62

THIS IS BEAUTIFUL

Level 40

Mar 13, 2025

Snakes are only behind mosquitos and humans themselves

Level 20

Mar 13, 2025

Snakes seems like the logical answer, but I over thought it

Is that why Gary, Indiana was featured in the Music Man? I don't remember the movie at all, or can recall ever hearing Gary described as that.

Level 74

It’s where Professor Hill said he hailed from and he was originally a swindler, so maybe…

Level 91

Mar 14, 2025

Harold Hill claimed he had graduated from the Gary Conservatory of Music in 1905, but that statement revealed his duplicity, as the city was only founded in 1906. I don't recall anything negative being said about the city itself, though.

Played my 100th game. Average score 8226, 8.36 correct. Got 10/10 21 times, 9/10 33 times, 8/10 19 times. Any way to find out how this stacks up?

in 'Your Stats' you can compare with your individual friends using the dropdown menu.

Level 79

Level 74

Mar 13, 2025

Average: 8.45

10/10: 16 %

9/10: 39%

Level 89

Mar 13, 2025

Looks like a solid average, that would put you towards the upper tier of my friends list, I only know a couple of people with an average above 9,000

Level 53

Mar 13, 2025

5/10 the

Level 53

Mar 13, 2025

4/10. It was 50/50 on 4 questions and I chose wrong on all of them. 2 I just didn't know (Gary and Qing).

Level 68

Mar 13, 2025

of COURSE it was gonna be snakes, but I was trying to speedrun and I clicked hippopotamus 😅

7/10

Level 66

Mar 13, 2025

Missed the last 4, 9 and 10 I should’ve gotten though.

Level 46

Mar 13, 2025

9/10 Good :)

Level 60

Mar 13, 2025

decent 5/10 (yeah that's decent for me)

Level 47

Mar 13, 2025

7/10…kicked myself about the snakes and Antarctica, but I didn’t have a hope of knowing Pele’s real name.

Level 64

Mar 13, 2025

3/10 welp

Level 69

Mar 13, 2025

I guessed Vlad for the Pelé question...

Level 34

Mar 13, 2025

I don't think Vlad is a very common brazilian name hahah

Level 70

Mar 13, 2025

That's why I almost answered it. Because it's the one you think couldn't be right. Ended up guessing right in the end, though.

Level 71

Mar 13, 2025

Actually is not that unusual, you can find some lol

Level 64

Mar 13, 2025

8/10. Blew the last two. Silly.

Level 30

Mar 13, 2025

Finally,i solved 9 of 10.That's okay for my first time.I proud myself.

Level 89

Mar 13, 2025

8/10, went for Fort Wayne instead of Gary, and like a lot of people I fell for the sandflies trap because insects usually kill more people (if you count the kill for the insect rather than the microbe, at least) - although in this case it seems snakes are still ahead by about 30,000

In other news, I've already dropped as many points this month as I did in all of January 😅 Definitely feels like we've gotten some harder questions of late, I need to shape up haha

Level 47

Mar 13, 2025

I picked Gary because I've heard the city name a lot and it seems miserable. Also I picked dogs because I hear a lot about dog attacks happening.

Level 74

Mar 13, 2025

For what it’s worth, Gary IN was Michael Jackson’s hometown.

Level 89

Mar 14, 2025

That's literally the only thing I knew about Gary before this quiz haha

Level 55

Mar 13, 2025

I've watched quite a few YouTube videos about how depressing Gary, IN is.

Level 72

Mar 13, 2025

Have an 8/10 today too.

Somehow snake feel like the obvious answer but the trickiness when the quiz are about to end had fooled a lot of people (me included)

Level 84

Mar 15, 2025

Gary is a very sad story. In its heyday it was one of the best places to live in the country...my great grandfather moved there from Russia and my family afterwards spent three generations trying to leave. Despite this, it's still one of the biggest steel producers in the country and you can find Hoosiers all over who worked in the steel mills.

Level 27

Mar 19, 2025

fun fact, that question i submitted was part of a cluster of 10 steel-related questions i submitted at once in case QM wanted to do another themed DTC

Level 88

Mar 13, 2025

A very slow 10/10 beat 99% of takers. For the Pelé question I eliminated the first answer because Lima is in Peru, the second answer because it was mostly Russian, the fourth answer because it was too obvious, thereby getting the right answer for 900 points.

Level 89

Mar 13, 2025

You might be interested to know that "Ronaldo Luís Nazário de Lima" is actually the name of a different Brazilian footballer haha, but I can see your logic there!

Level 83

Mar 13, 2025

I followed a similar line of logic. It actually worked, to my amazement.

Level 70

Mar 13, 2025

8/10. Missed the first answer. I said New Zealand. And I remember reading that hippos killed a lot of people, so I said that. Would have answered mosquitos if that had been a choice.

Level 62

Mar 13, 2025

I also said New Zealand and I was also looking for mosquitos!

Level 91

Mar 13, 2025

Same, but I missed the Pele question too. Based on the scores on my leaderboard this was a tough one for a lot of folks.

Level 89

Mar 14, 2025

Even now, nobody on my friends list has gotten 10/10 on this one. Really low average too (5.57 at the time of writing), definitely one of the hardest of the year so far.

Level 55

Mar 13, 2025

As a New Zealander, I know that Chile is closer. Most of the cruises to Antarctica leave from Chile or Argentina.

Level 47

Mar 13, 2025

Thijmen staal what was your score??

Level 50

Snakes! Why did it have to be snakes?!

Level 55

Mar 13, 2025

Ha ha!

Level 89

Mar 13, 2025

Fell right into the hippopotamus trap.

Level 66

Mar 13, 2025

9/10, 8803 Missed Pele, a couple good guesses

Level 74

Mar 13, 2025

6/10 ouch

Level 66

Fun fact about Pete Best, he released an album called "Best of the Beatles" which as its cover had an early picture of The Beatles with Pete Best faintly circled. The album itself contained zero Beatles songs (leaving the thousands that bought it disappointed) and it was instead just songs from Best's new band.

A lawsuit tried to sue Pete for deliberately misleading the public however he successfully argued that since he was "Best, of the Beatles" there was no misinformation and the lawsuit was dropped.

Level 23

Mar 13, 2025

Best album I ever bought...

Level 60

Mar 13, 2025

I'm here to complain about the new recommended quiz layout

Level 47

Mar 13, 2025

I am very surprised that many people don't know what the last ruling dynasty was. I feel like that's pretty basic knowledge of China.

Level 55

Mar 13, 2025

Yes - I used my knowledge of the film 'The Last Emperor'.

Level 91

Mar 13, 2025

Was 9/9, then had to guess on the Chinese dynasties and missed 😔

Level 80

Mar 13, 2025

10/10. I didn't have to guess on any of these. I thought it was kind of easy. Not bragging, I just think it's strange how I get a lower score when you all get high ones.

Level 55

Mar 13, 2025

Answering quickly earns you more points.

Level 65

Mar 13, 2025

How tf do people have such high averages I've done 105 of these with an average of 6,066 and 6.14 correct

Level 83

Mar 13, 2025

Tradeoffs. You probably have a more interesting life than the rest of us.

Level 44

Mar 13, 2025

DEER kill the most humans each year...by far. This should be corrected.
