yay, I got them all :) 2+mins left even. not often I get 100% second time this week now. I was actually surprised at the average scored. usually I am right around or slightly above average. But the average for this one is quite a bit lower (24/32) so I wonder what the reason is. If/why it was extra hard for others or less so for me. It is not a specefic subject I am good at or something. So the difference with the average public surprised me (more than my personal score)

Ah... come to think of it, after reading the comments. Maybe most didnt read instructions? About it being a chain. Not that for many I needed the letters. But still. (tokyo, tango (several 5 letter ones), blank, kanji, and yemen (as others have stated, not the only 5 letter option). But well then after some tries I still would ve gotten tango and yemen. (and good chance for tokyo)

I feel like 'empty' or 'unmarked' would be a better clue for 'blank.' Blank is usually an adjective, so having the noun 'nothing' as the clue can be misleading.

The 'exile' clue could be worded better. Exile is 'the state of being barred' from one's native country (noun), or 'to expel and bar someone' from their country (verb). Such a person would be an expatriate, or expat.

"Someone who is banished from their home or country."

Furthermore, an expat is not an exile. An expat can return to their home country while an exile cannot.

The notion that Romans signaled disfavor--or, more to the point, death--for losing gladiators by giving a "thumbs down" is due to a mistranslation of the phrase "pollice verso" ("with the thumb turned") used to describe the gesture made by the Emperor (or whoever was presiding over the contests) to call for killing a gladiator. That gesture involved pointing the thumb at one's own chest--a far more evocative way to tell whoever was waiting for instructions to finish off the loser than turning one's thumb down would have been.

But a popular Nineteenth Century French painter thought "verso" meant "turned down" and produced a painting showing that. Too late to undo that mistake now, not that historical accuracy matters all that much in this context.

"Eight" and "ate" aren't homonyms in any dialect of English. They are homophones in American English though.

I mean, I wouldn't say it makes NO sense. Sure, there are breads made without yeast, but I think you can still understand the intent of the clue in general. For that reason it actually does make a lot of sense.
