I have no idea. Not even the slightest. Quasit, I came here with zero points. I'm really happy to get to this point in the quiz, but I will stop and keep the points I have for now. Another 250,000 Points it is then right after toulousain last time. Congratulations and I hope you enjoyed.

Quasit 849 Posted January 30, 2021 Author #713 Share Posted January 30, 2021 And that would have been the right answer. It can also be the window right above the door.

Wumo 2,791 Posted January 30, 2021 #714 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Thank you for the explanation @toulousain . As you wrote, this question would have suited you very well as a 500,000 points-question. It has been a real pleasure participating in this, @Quasit. Thank you so much for taking your time to organise this. It's a really fun activity and good questions by you and @OlympicIRL. I will definitely give it a second run at some point and see if I can improve my result. toulousain and Quasit 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, for now I'd prefer as many first runs as possible before having a return, so we'll have to wait for that a bit. Olympian1010 1 Stopped watching sports, there are better things in life.
