No worries. I thought you were just adding suspense :cry:

Not for that long, I was about to log in. We'll solve that mystery at least.

 

You're right, Kala Namak is a type of black salt harvested in the Himalayas.

You are on Pts. 32,000 and I hope to be back soon, otherwise we'll have to resume tomorrow. 

 

Sorry about that...

Okay, let's make this official. With mrv's help you made it to 32,000, so that's guaranteed.

   Kala namak ...?

 

 

  A: is an Indonesian honorific   B: blows in the Kalahari         
  C: requires 32 cards   D: seasons dishes

@OlympicIRL

Awesome. Then let's have a look at question 11 right away. You do have 2 lifelines remaining.

A wrong answer won't drop you down. Here it is:

 

 

Lasers-Q11-14-1

 

 

Pts. 64,000

 

   In an average human lifetime of 70 years,

approximately how often does the heart beat?

 

  A: 250 million times   B: 2.5 billion times
  C: 40 billion times   D: 1.5 trillion times

@QuasitI take it I am not allowed to use a calculator right? :d

 

Because I would multiply 78 (a somewhat average adult heart rate) x 60 (minutes in an hour) x 24 (hrs in a day) x 365 (days in most years) x 70 (number of years). There's no way I can do this in my mind.

 

So the answer is I don't know off the top of my head so I will have to switch.

    • Totallympics Annual International Song Contest 2025      Welcome back to the final session of the Totallympics Annual International Song Contest 2025. Over the course of the next hour and a half we will crown the winner of this year's TISC Annual.   Right now, Ireland are in pole position to claim a sixth TISC title. They are holding a 28 point lead over 2nd placed France with 3rd placed Italy a further 6 points behind.   Ireland still have to vote and there is a maximum of 96 points on offer so theoretically, 26 nations still have a shot at winning from here.   The battle for the podium is also fascinating as 4th-placed Argentina sit just 6 points behind Italy, with Romania, Albania, Spain and Germany tightly bunched behind.   Or will another nation come from the depths to climb the heights of the podium?   Let's see how it all develops! Kicking off the voting in session 4 will be Turkey. Good evening Turkey, can we please have the results of the votes of the Turkish national jury?      Juries Voted: 26/34    1  Ireland   136  18  Guatemala   53  2  France   108  19  Netherlands   51  3  Italy   102  20  Tunisia   50  4  Argentina   96  21  Denmark   49  5  Romania   85  22  Poland   48  6  Albania   85  23  Sweden   46  7  Spain   84  24  Lithuania   45  8  Germany   84  25  Malta   43  9  Canada   74  26  Turkey   43  10  Mexico   73  27  Greece   37  11  Serbia   66  28  Slovenia   36  12  Kazakhstan   65  29  China   34  13  Portugal   65  30  Bulgaria   32  14  Great Britain   63  31  Indonesia   30  15  United States   62  32  Slovakia   28  16  Ukraine   57  33  Brazil   28  17  Israel   55  34  India   15
