      @deborahfields2226 History SUCKS! However, I have a head full of worthless facts and useless information. 95/100
      The ones I missed were ones I'd never heard of and 3 I got by deduction. So 92 "factoids" were stuck in my head.

    In the number 8 I was shouting from the top of my lungs: Aachen! Some of the best memories I own are there. I really miss the city and the people. Elisenbrunnen was my favorite place, and walking trough the countryside on Eilendorf, and the nights with friends at AZ, Musikbunker, skating with the guys from Burn, and walking on Adalbertstraße ;) . If there's any aachener reading, just know there's a cuban that loves you all. Klenkes für immer!

I did get 44 right in the end but honestly, the sighing and groaning at my ignorance was audible. Don’t worry, I’ll keep plodding on and learn a great deal along the way thanks to you. Have a lovely weekend everyone xx

  • @nox8730
    @nox8730 Před 3 měsíci

    75/100. From 93/100 on the first one. Much more difficult than the previous one. Obviously i couldn't answer any question about Australia, battled with all these all too many english names of people i never heard about, and struggled again with those related to the USA. Interestingly, as a European, those on Ethiopia and asian countries proved to be easier for me. Speaking of commercial companies, i was surprised that the question was about the UK and not the Netherlands. At least, there was one question on The Netherlands. One of the major difficulty i find with quizzes made by english speakers is that everything is translated in english, plus the focus of the questions tend to come from a different bias (compared to mine :)). At times, they refer to people i know of, but i don't click immediately because the name is anglicised. Which is very unusual. There are some names here i couldn't find a translation for, and so i couldn't tell what the question was about. The dictionary saved me when it came to "longships".
