Finally back to 10/10 after a long drought, but some very tricky questions here, so finished with 9,847. I especially struggled with deciding between India and Ethiopia for the Ghats.
But… but… Barry Allan! I mean, I’ve never watched a movie or show or read a comic book with The Flash, but I know his name is Barry Allan in the modern shows.
BTW I thought Q8 was a bit mean. My colleague was telling me just yesterday about the film Westworld that takes place in the future in a western-styled themepark, we had been talking about films involving time travel although admittedly he did say this film wasn't strictly about time travel as such.
9/10 :) and only 2 on my leaderboard at the moment, but I am actually faster than them *shock* ! Normally I can only beat them (most) if I have more answers correct. Plus I took forever on question 6, I was trying to figure it out on my own before looking at the answers.. given the options it was a quick decision.
Edit I was nearly as slow on the Wally question btw, 947 and 949 respectively. I did not know the name so had to work it out by elimination and likelihood.
I had a very similar experience with Q6, lost quite a bit of time working out it was somewhere in southeast Africa, then saw only one of the options fit that description lol
I didn't know the Northwest passage was in North America. Was thinking of "Mutiny on the Bounty" associated it with south Pacific -> Australia/Cook Islands -> Captain Cook. Absolutely illogical but there you go.
I did however get lucky on guessing the Westworld question

The missed one was nr 10
