Heeee!!!! 3rd place! It's more than I ever ambitioned in life, let alone in this contest!!! But if we come to think about it, one Ninja organizes the contest, the other Ninja wins it... how can we be sure they didn't use their telepathic powers?

Me too - I solemnly promise I didn't check the internet or anything and at least three of my answers were total guesses so I was mostly lucky. I'm well chuffed Next time it will be someone else's turn....

This is a really old thread, but I decided to give the test a try. (Since it has been established that I'm not a geography expert, I thought I should try to regain my dignity on this forum somehow... I tied with HW and got 9 of 11 correct. I only missed grissini and jib. Respectable, I think!
