Well, on the plus side, the only team that got the question wrong -- that is, that didn't put "Norway" -- guessed France. So it didn't really cost anyone a point. Had I discovered this while writing the quiz, however, I would've ditched the question, because it strikes me as one of those "gotcha!" questions that really annoy me as a trivia player. But I'm glad you mentioned it -- if it ever comes up when I'm playing somewhere else...well, I'll have to try and figure out if that quiz master is going with the easy-to-find answer or the tricky answer. </p> http://seattlest.com/2006/08/23/last_nights_trivia_quiz_the_answers_the_scores.php#comment-316202 http://seattlest.com/2006/08/23/last_nights_trivia_quiz_the_answers_the_scores.php#comment-316202 Comments Wed, 23 Aug 2006 19:52:05 -0800 <p>On Round 1, Question 8: "Not including the British Isles, Scotland's nearest neighbor is what country?"
