Regarding #4, was anybody else wondering whether the question was about Bayern Munich and not any other club, because their logo reminds the shape of diamonds?
Actually, I’m surprised Jack Kerouac was on question 3. I was pretty sure by that question that we were on a playing card theme. Still took a couple seconds to think about it since it’s April Fool’s and I didn’t want to be bamboozled.
Strangely easy 10/10...not exactly sure why I knew Q4 but I do play card games....What's the highest possible score in a cribbage hand when you are also holding the crib? (excluding pegging points)
Including the crib, it's 53.....the cut card is a 5, 555J for the hand with the J being the same suit as the cut card, and 4466 in the crib = 29 for the hand and 24 for the crib.
I thought too hard about the Hearts question. I know if you end up with the Queen of Spades you lose 13 points, but felt like the question was asking which Queen adds 13 points to your score.
But if you have queen of spades and all the heart cards then you get the achievement “shoot the moon” - you get 0 points while all your opponents get 26 points - which is awesome as hell
8/10, and I think this may be my longest streak without a 10 now. Never played hearts, went for the obvious [wrong] answer; and had no clue on the card brand but guessed caravan in the hopes that Fallout New Vegas would lead me to the correct answer (it didn't 😂)
Same. I haven't played Hearts in a while, but I've done so often enough in my life that I should have known better. I guess I was going too fast to properly consider all the options.
things that sound obvious but aren't (ex. Airplane Black Boxes are orange)
or
things that are over/under exaggarated (ex. Four Leaf Clovers are 1/5000, not 1/10000)
I don't see any correlation between the questions
2. Ace
3. Jack
4. Club
5. Joker
6. King
7-8-9. Cards game
10. Heart
I heart this quiz.
Don't know anything about the card game Hearts or brands of playing cards.
You don't "lose" 13 points for a queen of spades. You get 13 points. Which is bad.
You also get 1 point for each heart you take. Also bad.
I should have gotten the three I missed right. This is what I get for saying, "you have a few minutes, you can squeeze this in now"
