Enjoyable quiz, would be perfect for a Hogmanay feature! Nice touch withbthe king's regal number, but a couple of type in tweaks would be appreciated eg not having to type "wall" and using the singular for the name of both clans.

Nice quiz but bit harsh/tight to not allow the singular of clans (eg MacDonald)
