Make a text quiz and go to type-ins. You can now open an “Options” tab. It has a Whammies toggle there

I wasn't wrong about you coming up with great ideas! Love the creativity here!

Two things I was thinking: I was naturally being careful with my answers, so for the Utah question I put Water because a lake is filled with water right? But then I tripped the Jupiter whammy.

Also, I realize maybe this is overly pedantic (but likely due to being a mathematician), but circles and squares refer to the boundaries of the shapes, meaning that half a circle (i.e., semicircle) is like a smile (and hence not a closed region). Thus half a square wouldn't be a closed shape either. Do with that as you will, just thought I'd share my thoughts on that
