9/10...Q1-4 easy, I was slow on 5 then it was duh...Q6 fine, 7 had to go through the elimination process, Q8 somehow Gary rang a bell + it was the A answer, Q9, I started with WWI but moved onto WWII...Q10 another process of elimination...not too bad

Drunk, 8/10. The pasta, never heard called that before. In the US that type are just called shells. Learned something new today!

Dang. I was thinking of Chinese for #10 and went Norse because they were so oceanic. But then there probably aren’t too many oceanic turtles in the North Sea…

Exactly, that was my thought, where are turtles most likely, so picked Chinese.

9/10 for me today, messed up the pasta question, saw shells and went straight for tortellini because it sounds like turtle, then immediately realised my mistake 😂

...and then the next question basically gives the answer. Crafty placement!

7/10, I messed up on Mother of pearl and Tortellini, then misclicked on WW2 😭😭

lol. I screwed up the pasta question by clicking on the one closest to my name, which actually means little ear.

9/10

Missed the mother of pearl one. But, I missed it really badly, getting the least guessed answer - woo hoo?

That always feels like a weird achievement, kinda like getting a 2 or less overall, where yer outplayed by basic probability

Agreed. For those of us who play DnD, and your have to make a skill check or saving throw that you are told is "really high", and you roll a 1. Yep, i failed, and I failed GLORIOUSLY!

Missed the first question… and got everything else. Rushed and picked flounder, even though I know the definition of a shellfish and flounder is certainly not one.

8/10 for me. Knew the first 6. Went for A on Q7. Chose Patrick quickly for Q8 then remembered he's the sea star; to be honest I didn't know any of the other names, should have paid more attention when my kids were watching it.

Knew Q9 was WW1.

Chinese was an educated guess for Q10.

9/10, decent although I missed the 7th question.

Missed out on 10 because I read the first question as fish and not shellfish…

Level 76
Aug 29, 2025
7/10 not bad but not great, I could have gotten 10 if I was more patient. Because in hindsight 1 I knew (nacre) 1 I could have known (pasta, it has the word conch..) and 1 I should have know (shellshock, chose vietnam, but I actually know it has been around longer than that..).

The other 7 I had no doubts or hesitations. (still slow as usual, other people seem to get 995 on the ones they are sure on, I get like 980-990 haha)

8/10. missed the last 2. World war 1, world war 2. What's the difference?

One took place between 1914-18, and the other between 1939-45. I also think it was called combat fatigue in WWII.

WWII happened for a good reason (stopping Nazis); WWI was the most senseless waste of life in human history.

9/10 because I stupidly clicked on The Hobbit, of all things, but I am pleased that I was able to guess what SpongeBob would call a pet snail just from knowing the tone of the show. Maybe I'm better at my job (writing kids' TV) than I thought!

Damn, a fairly slow 10/10. 9866. Had to guess a lot, was sure I’d come undone at some point. Apparently not. I guess I know shells.
