Pts. 500 Where are you most likely to find a lookout post called a "crow's nest"? ♦ A: Train ♦ B: Ship ♦ C: Airplane ♦ D: Tractor Question by OlympicIRL Magpie's nest in French

I can also help if the expert team isn't already large enough. Strong fields : geography (like everybody in here it seems), movies, food, animals...

Yeah it was really fun but now I'm exhausted !

That was quite a journey !

If I had to guess, yes.

Nah, this time I'll be wise and end it there.

What can 108 righteous outlaws do except a Journey to the West ? 1

My Chinese literature knowledge is quite rusty... In this case rusty means non-existant.

I'm levitating.

I understand the risk and yes, B is my final answer.

I know the answer !!! Bonjour Roger Bambuck. He's a French sprinter who had the world 100 m record during a few minutes in the 60s. Mennea was an Italian 200 m world holder and Borzov a Soviet Olympic champion. And the right answer is the Australian Peter Norman. Answer B !

My thinking was mostly wrong but I'm right ! Yeah !

A person. And a Germanophe one. Great.

For B, C or D, I would expect the name of a famous person in those fields. Walo seems strange, maybe it's a brand. And that's why, with that really weak logic, I'll answer A: show business (and yes, we use the English expression in French)

That's ok. Technically I live closer to Switzerland. Gamble or not gamble ? I think I will try it !

If it was a literature prize, I would expect the name of a writer (maybe Rousseau ?).

Walo doesn't ring a bell at all. It does'nt sound very Swiss, maybe an acronym ? I would lean the answers A or D, don't ask why.

Meanwhile, I will think. It must a French-speaking part of Switzerland award cause Prix is a French word. Yeah, it's not helping.

Ok, let's talk to @Olympian1010. How is your Switzerland knowledge ?
