Wow - people are struggling a lot today - a 9/10 beat 96% of people

Level 58

Mar 19, 2026

It's down to 91% now which is more reasonable

Level 61

Mar 19, 2026

yeah. 7/10 today, but the toughest question I answered was also answered by 60% of others. All the tough ones, I failed. badly.

"What do you mean Italy is an answer for Galileo?!?!"

4 8/10s in a row #consistency

Level 53

Mar 19, 2026

Oops Qs 1 to 4 seemed so easy but I got them all wrong. Redeemed myself by getting the next 5 right. Never heard of Terence Tao.

Level 54

Mar 19, 2026

I hope all the Australians got Terence Tao.

Level 61

Mar 19, 2026

I didn't. Also had a brain fart on Galileo. Sigh...8/10

Level 92

Mar 19, 2026

Damn, last question, never heard Terence Tao. 9/10 8843.

Level 65

Mar 19, 2026

You got 7 of 10 correct

Level 85

Mar 19, 2026

I'm sorry to say I'd never heard of Terence Tao.

Level 30

Mar 19, 2026

Well he's heard of you, and when he gets there then you'll realyl be sorry

Level 33

Mar 19, 2026

King Kong, Addis Abeba, Galileo's birthplace and Bunny was betrayed me. 6/10

Level 74

Mar 19, 2026

8/10 I don’t know Terence Tao, and I do know that Galileo was born in Pisa, but I inexplicably chose Genoa instead.

Level 70

Mar 19, 2026

don't you hate it when that happens. I thought the answer was Pisa, but wanted to say Genoa, but decided to say Pisa instead, so it worked out for me, somehow.

Level 61

Mar 19, 2026

I missed the exact same two as you, and for the same exact reason. As soon as I chose Genoa I wanted to slap my own forehead.

Level 37

Mar 19, 2026

I'm sure it was because of Columbus

Level 70

Mar 19, 2026

9/10. Never heard of Terence Tao

Level 43

Mar 19, 2026

4/10 - That's all folks!

Level 30

poky pig

Level 42

Mar 19, 2026

Tao is the man. If I'm not mistaken, they named 2pi after him (6.28318...) and were considering changing the circle formulas to use tao. (2(pi)(r) to (tao)(r), e.g.)

Level 42

Mar 19, 2026

Disregard above comment! I looked into it, and this is misinformation. As often happens, I combined two trivia bits.

Tau is the greek letter for 6.28. It has nothing to do with Tao, although he is a great mathematician.

Carry on

Level 44

Mar 19, 2026

What an honorable man! Not often do we see the same guy fact checking himself.

Level 66

Mar 19, 2026

The unfortunate thing about tau = 2*pi is that the symbol for tau is the same as pi but with a leg missing

τ = 2π

They should be the other way round!

Level 64

Mar 19, 2026

I think this is my worst performance yet lol 4/10

Level 30

Mar 19, 2026

keyword: yet

Level 95

Mar 19, 2026

Is there a formula for measuring mathematical greatness? Did Tau invent it? Possible shenanigans...

Level 24

Mar 19, 2026

6/10

Level 89

Mar 19, 2026

9/10, fell at the final hurdle. Never heard of the guy but was able to rule out poker. Thought going for maths might be leaning into stereotypes too much, and that I'd be more likely to have heard of a mathematician than a juggler 😅

Level 68

Mar 19, 2026

Ironically the stats on Q10 mean he is perhaps not known for being the greatest mathematician alive

Level 85

Mar 19, 2026

I didn't do particularly well on this (6/10). Took me a while after I was done to figure out today's theme (same letter initials in the clues after the first answer) too!

Level 33

Mar 19, 2026

2/10 lets go I'm amazing

Level 66

Mar 19, 2026

Had the wrong address for King Kong & didn't know Tao but watched some of his recent interviews on AI algorithm, very interesting. He is a little hard to follow, besides the way his brain works in one of those savant ways, he talks fast.

Level 80

Mar 19, 2026

6/10 must be my average at this point. I may never see another 10/10. 9/10 is the new 10/10 for me.

Level 66

Mar 19, 2026

Oh stop it! You'll be just fine....9/10 is lovely! I'm an 8.4/10 average🤓

Level 80

Mar 20, 2026

I just checked, my average is about 6.5/10. i had nine 10/10s last year. It's the end of the world... 😃

good day
