Yeah a couple of those were tough. I'm pretty good on the maps, after spending hundreds of hours playing grand strategy games on PC. Literally got so many questions right just from videogame knowledge alone

I went to Reading, we got destroyed dammit they were so shit. 295 is an insane score though.
Goethe - 10 Mali - 5 Tulips - 10 Jupiter - 5 Mitochondria - 10 Tom Waits - 5 Marvin Gaye - 5 Senate - 10 Baobab - 5 Cicero - 5 Joan Rivers - 5 Komodo - 5 James Mattis - 5 Emission - 10
Only 14 this time. 95 in score so i would have dicked Reading on my own

Ahh you got different ones than i did, i got the music and well.. others, my memory is shit..
BUT.. cicero pissed me off, i kept coming up with cassius when i knew it wasn't right Cicero was a badass schemer
I don't keep track of score though, just how many correct..
BTW.. that was an ass kicking.. 295-50 or whatever.. holy cow.. Paxman was giving way too long for them to consult each other though.
