Hopefully you see the difference heywoodu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From all questions, I think the hardest should be the Vojvodina official language thing, because not everyone can know that, but for the others I think it´s more or less easy even to guess correctly. No I honestly don't see how these questions are 'more or less easy to guess correctly' - Whose declaration of independence on 25 June 1991 was followed by the Ten-Day War? - World-renowned artist Andy Warhol was born as Andrej Varchola to parents who emigrated to the United States from which country? - Who was chosen as one filming location of Prince Caspian, the second in The Chronicles of Narnia film series due its resemblance to New Zealand (where the complete first movie was shot)? - Who is home to the highest wooden altar in the world in the Renaissance church of the medieval town of Levoča? - Whose major international airport is called Jože Pučnik Airport and has the three-letter code LJU? - Who is home to the Society for the Recognition of Roasted Potatoes as a Distinct Dish that organizes the the annual World Roast Potato Festival? - Whose official name in its native language is Slovenská republika? Varchola sounded Czech to me --> Slovakia Levoca sounded both Slovak and Slovenian to me Joze Pucnik, no idea how that sounded Slovenska, I only knew because you once said it here. How would I know where a random movie I've never even seen or had any interest in was filmed? Or how would I know which country has the World Roast Potato Festival? hckošice 1 If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!
