I immediately got that one without thinking, had no idea about shinto though. And I am pretty sure I came across that question earlier today haha didnt stick aparently...
"Oliver or Annie" is way to vague. I kept thinking about 6-letters synonym to "name", than to "hurricane" and several other words. No, knowing the answer, I believe "Oliver" refers to Oliver Twist, but that could be given in full, not only his first name. And still I have no idea about Annie
I also read it as professor the first time, and for some reason that seemed like a plausible question, so i didn't re-read it, and then i never figured out the answer.
and as it has to connect with Q1 "Opaque," because in a chain quiz the last connects to the first, your options are limited... have you never done a chain before? they are brilliant!...BUT, QM for the benefit is the newbies, maybe add something in the instructions to effect that the first and last connect also..
I also wish the question had been phrased "a color of the rainbow" or "one of the colors of the rainbow". It's very obvious in retrospect, but I was trying to think of some kind of term that represented the whole rainbow. I first tried ROYGBIV, but that obviously didn't fit. Maybe there was some kid of scientific name for the refracted light that makes the rainbow? Anyway, I was way off. I also didn't get the previous answer, so maybe if I'd had the "i", it would have smacked me in the head.
"The Oracle"? There were several oracles in antiquity, Delphi is (and was) just the most famous. (In fact, the second most famous is Dodona, which coincidentally also has six letters and starts with D.)
I don't think Maglev is the best answer to the prompt. "Magnetism" or "Magnetics" are better answers to the hint. I suggest a different word for starting with M and ending with V. Molotov comes to mind. All I was able to go off of was the M.
I really don't like being one of those people but Indigo is not technically a color of the rainbow anymore. It was omitted from the visible spectrum in 2016 because it was hard to differentiate from blue and violet. I don't really care either way but just thought I'd share the one thing I learned in science class lol :))
How quickly will I be cut back a level??
