I'll go with @mrv86 since he is online and I remember yesterday he kindly offered his services for my run. I am not sure who would know this. I wish Griff was a phone a friend as it would help a bit :d

 

But very happy to discuss with @mrv86 please :)

You may discuss with @mrv86 then. :yes

Ok @OlympicIRL I’ll do as best as I can

 

That word doesn’t sound like a Bantu word, so that’s no for Kalahari; plus that would be an easy coincidence

 

As for the card game, I’m not a professional gambler, but it doesn’t seem likely.

 

As you’ve already guessed, it seems like an Indonesian word, but instead of a title, my hunch tells me is a spice

@mrv86 any thoughts on this one? I don't want to influence you so I will put some input after you tell me your thoughts.

Look above :d

 

I’m enjoying my paella too much, so that’s why I didn’t answer quicker

You literally read my entire thought process which is both a little scary and re-assuring :d

 

The one I was ruling out right away was the wind in the Kalahari. I have never heard of a card game by that name before and I would be stung if it was that for 32,000. It really sounds Indonesian to me but I have never heard of that title either.

 

And I have never heard of a seasoning with that name but I am terrible at food and drink questions. I am afraid if I do 50:50 it will leave me A and D so to hell with it, let's go for D. Forgive me @Griff88 if I got it wrong :d

    • 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.
