We need an ooh there. You know like an ooh? A moving ooh!

@CountMoriarty 10, although the harp was pretty much a complete guess.

Getting a question wrong on the periodic table is going to annoy me for far longer than not going with my instinct on the cricket question 🧠 Quiz of the Day - Apr 12 🟩 🟩 ⬜ 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 ⬜ ⬜ Score: 7/10 Think you can do better? quizoftheday.co.uk

@ArianeSherine I pretty much only do haha emojis. I wonder if I'm giving people the wrong message.

Boyfriend: How many men put fire emojis on your thirst trap? I want them all to get run over by a bus Me: An atheist bus? Boyfriend: Sure, if you like. I don't mind what kind of bus

@CountMoriarty Ah, Djibouti is one of perhaps fifty that I can recognize instantly from the shape.

@youngrat Well, I couldn't work it out so decided on where the coastlines were and guessed at Djibouti and was very wrong so tried South America. But I really couldn't guess which of the random small countries it was going to be.

Better. Foiled by leopards and French food. 🧠 Quiz of the Day - Apr 10 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 ⬜ 🟩 ⬜ Score: 8/10 Think you can do better? quizoftheday.co.uk

@CountMoriarty I vaguely recognized the shape, but got the wrong continent. When pointed to the right continent, only one it could be.

@youngrat No, I meant Worldle. I got 5 on it and you got 2 I think yo said. For Wordle I did it in three.

@CountMoriarty My normal first two gave me three letters, all wrong places. Third go gave me another. Then I just thought for a long time.

@youngrat 5 on the worldle. How did you get that quickly?

@Speed_of_smell @CountMoriarty Then why do you play it?

@youngrat @CountMoriarty I don't play Wordle because I am strong

@CountMoriarty Wasn't sure about 9. Confident about the rest.

@youngrat Guesses?

@CountMoriarty I have, but I know the answer because I know its Welsh name.

@youngrat I didn't know the football one so I had to deduce it. How do you know the others? Have you been to Swansea?

Tough today. Starting off tricky is never a good sign. 🧠 Quiz of the Day - Apr 7 ⬜ ⬜ ⬜ 🟩 ⬜ ⬜ 🟩 🟩 ⬜ 🟩 Score: 4/10 Think you can do better? quizoftheday.co.uk

@CountMoriarty I got five and seven wrong. Not ashamed.

@youngrat The Infant, Schoolboy...etc I didn't know. And the -, +, x, = which is not surprising because the answer repulsed me. Which ones did you struggle with?

A special tricky one today. Two that foxed me but I guessed one correctly. The Gen, Ex, Lev one was obvious but I couldn't remember which one came next. 🧠 Quiz of the Day - Apr 5 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 ⬜ ⬜ 🟩 🟩 Score: 8/10 Think you can do better? quizoftheday.co.uk

@CountMoriarty I just had to picture where the Oresund was, which also helped with the quiz.

@youngrat I have just done Worldle having not seen it for ages. One of those where you instantly recognise it. But I couldn't work out which of the two it was and I guessed incorrectly so I got it in two.

Harrumph. A 50/50 on Caesar and I picked the wrong one and I kind of knew that as well. 🧠 Quiz of the Day - Apr 4 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 ⬜ Score: 9/10 Think you can do better? quizoftheday.co.uk

Didn't he die, like, forty years ago?

@CountMoriarty I obviously knew one real name, and assumed that two of the remaining already were real names or adaptations thereof.

@youngrat I'd seen the name of the answer somewhere before so it at least had a slight familiarity.

Odd. But I'll take it. And who the hell are the first three people here? 🧠 Quiz of the Day - Apr 1 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 Score: 10/10 Think you can do better? quizoftheday.co.uk

@CountMoriarty Ten today. Not displeased.

My random guessing skills are seemingly back. I'm annoyed at question 2 because I had ruled out what turned out to be the actual answer by deduction. 🧠 Quiz of the Day - Mar 31 🟩 ⬜ 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 🟩 Score: 9/10 Think you can do better? quizoftheday.co.uk

@CountMoriarty Yes, either you know them or don't, and most aren't a thing here.

@youngrat Avis was the easy one for me. But I could only find three so fourth was a guess. I didn't think enough about what ersatz meant because of brain fog. Got there eventually. But you have to admit the snacks was nonsense.

Impossible today. Unless of course you've spent a fair time in the US. Connections Puzzle #1023 🟩🟨🟨🟨 🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟦🟦🟦🟦 🟪🟩🟩🟪 🟩🟩🟪🟪 🟪🟩🟪🟩

@CountMoriarty I don't normally do it. On this occasion, the group that included ersatz was easy to me, as I just looked for other words that mean the same. I guessed what meaning of 'avis' we wanted, so then that was, as long as you've heard of them.

@youngrat I didn't think any were easy but my brain struggles with this sort of puzzle as I have poor recall and poor working memory.
