To be completely honest, I did cheat a bit.

Given that I got all of 3 on Sunday and 5.5 yesterday, this is a nice surprise.

As soon as I finished today, I knew there would be at least one 10/10 on here.

I got 8, but should have had 9 (put the NWA song, not album) and easily could have had 10 if I actually slowed down and thought a bit.

After a 4 or something yesterday it was a big shift for sure.

Guessed the wrong cartel. Realized just after submitting I’d guessed a Mexican cartel.

I only got Lake Baikal because last year I got sucked into Spooky Lake Month videos and learned about it there.

My knowledge of any videogames issued after the arcade era is woefully lacking.

Man, you guys are really good at this.

Some days, yes. Some days - not so much.

Shoulda stuck Tokugawa in front of shogunate. Also said Byzantium instead of Istanbul.

A lot of prolonged mental cudgelling to remember names I haven’t thought of in years (or even decades). I hate that annoying β€œI can remember what letter it starts with but it’s not the word that has immediately popped into mind” feeling.

I spent like ten minutes going ”It’s not Hapsburgs but it’s something like that and I can’t think of it because the word Hapsburgs is stuck in my head now!” . Got there eventually, at least.

Holy Christ, I’m fucking stupid. I got 1 today.

I don’t know how you people get 8-9 with regularity. I have never heard of most of these people or things.

Well…
