Brilliant! Such fun and well thought out and ordered clues. Loved "I appear in court", "find me in a Jiffy", vowels in consonant/consonants in vowel, blood groups, compass directions...! Thought it was going to be really taxing with lots to remember but it worked out fine just going step by step while still being a good challenge. Easy nomination :)

really loved this! the only thing that caught me out was getting vertical and horizontal mirrors the wrong way round. i don't know if it was deliberate to have something like that where people have to try and figure out which is which - it might be more clear to say something like 'I have horizontal symmetry', unless you were intending it to be harder than that

some of the answers could be worded a bit better, maybe try "I am a vowel in the word 'consonant'" instead, otherwise it's a very good quiz and the right balance of answers.

For some reason I've been putting off doing this quiz for quite awhile... I thought I'd need to take notes with a pen and paper, but fortunately that wasn't necessary! Fun quiz! Did you go through and map out a particular path for quiz takers to take? I felt like you must've purposely planned the elimination of letters in a very strategic way for it to work out so nicely. It was pretty satisfying seeing all those letters with vertical lines of symmetry get used up!

What I wanted for this quiz was a resolution that necessarily involved a process of elimination but that did not require taking notes on paper. It definitely takes logical skills to solve the whole quiz, but no need to have 3 doctorates either :)

As to the path, I built it on a spreadsheet so that the questions come in a very specific order. It was quite fun to do, and it is even more fun to read that users like the final result!

Thank you for this comment :)

It was a lot of fun (I went wrong on the first question, just clicked a vowel before realising my mistake. So I restarted) I had to cycle through it many times (sometimes because I didn't know the answers, sometimes, simply because I failed to notice that I eliminated enough letters to solve a previously unsolvable one. So I was rather afraid I would run out of time! But that was in no way the case luckily ( 4 mins left I think).

This is really entertaining and I would love to see a whole series of them :) (Maybe this will finally get my sister and father over the edge to take some quizzes on this site too haha)

So another (probably not necessary anymore, you're on top of the list atm) nomination

Am I the only one not seeing the questions in the order they are supposed to be in? Is the first question “ I am a vowel” for everyone?

Level 71
Feb 26, 2024
That's totally normal. The point of this quiz is to test your elimination process skills. to do that, you have to skip questions until you find one that allows only 1 answer, then go on until the end of the quiz.

Same. Would make more sense if they had a pre arranged order instead of being random, since I can’t get a logical answer if I get “I am a vowel” first.
+12
Level 72
May 29, 2024
It IS prearranged and not random, everyone got I am a vowel first. It is done deliberately that you can't immediately fill in answers.

Look at it like one of those cryptic crosswords, it is unlikely you will know the first question, but once you get one of them, it starts to give you more clues for the others. So it is not solving top-down.

Edit; and the logic is, that (since) the first question needs a vowel, but there are several vowels so you don't know which is needed, therefore you need to wait until you have more info so you could pick the right vowel. It only makes sense.

Great quiz, but I couldn't get there by narrowing it to a unique letter each time. I got to two spots where I got it down to 2 choices then had to take a leap of faith. Can it be solved uniquely without having to guess between options at any point?
+4
Level 71
Jun 5, 2024
Yes, this quiz can be solved without having to randomly choose between 2 answers. The quiz relies on logical thinking and not chance.

As a starting point, there are 4 seperate questions that can be answered in the first round. Then the remaining choices narrow down quickly once you have them.

Nice quiz but here is a correction for you. You determined the answer to the question "There is only one capital that begins with me" as the letter Q because of quito, but this is wrong. Because there is only one capital city that starts with the letter Z, and that is Zagreb.
+8
Level 71
Jun 5, 2024
There are 4 capital cities that begin with a letter that no others do. Solve the other questions until only 1 of them remains, then you'll know it's the good one.

Btw, this question is one of the last to be solved in my logical progression.
