You just have to let me know that you're interested (which I see you are) and we'll arrange a quiz day/night.

I won't be doing this every day though, it took 5 hours for two people. So probably on specific days. :d 

Great, just let me know when you are able to, and if I am too, then we'll play :d

Yes. Surveying, movies and geography would be in that list too. :mumble:

As a bonus, I'm throwing in an inofficial final question. You rarely get to see them in the actual show. ;) 

This one wouldn't have appeared in mrv's or Vojthas' original stack but it would have been a switch question, if anyone ever got to that position.

Pretty sure that’s a level one question for @Vojthas, since that was his main field of study at university.

I think @mrv86 also volunteered his services for tomorrow. So hopefully I can choose between both experts :d

mrv86, what is your area of expertise? :d

Well, legal, geography, history & art topics are my strongest topics.

 

 

But I'll be glad to assist in any other question.

After doing a web search for the correct answer (after I gave my advice of course), I’ve never been so happy to see someone go against my advice. 

 

I was correct about India though, they are the Blue Tigers :d

 

@MHSN I gonna need to knew the story/logic behind “Melli”

I just saw the notification without knowing what's happening here :d

 

Melli means "national" . the word "team melli" some websites wrongly uses as the nickname simply means the "national team" !

    • I think the reason is that it's generally preferable to have a fast shooter in the 1st leg, and especially in the prone shooting, where Hofer is quite slow.   Now, I'm not saying I agree with the choice, because I don't. I think it's going to neutralize Giacomel's skiing skills in the 1st lap at least.   I guess the idea is to try and set a very fast pace in the 1st leg, which is usually quite tactical, but I'm afraid that's going to force Giacomel to risk too much because he will feel he has to make some time somehow.   Regardless, Italy must be on the podium tomorrow. I think that would be crucial for the following races as well. I think France is the clear favorite, but the other teams are not stronger than Italy on paper.
