Topics, hints and selected answers

01

Time-travel cinema

A gentle hint +

Recall a film where moving through time affects the story. Space travel by itself is not enough.

A stronger nudge +

Try a comedy whose heroes are television actors mistaken for real space adventurers.

OFFICIAL REVEAL · 2026-11-15

Galaxy Quest 100 pts · Krillion gem

Another accepted example: Avengers: Endgame · 10 points.

The film’s Omega 13 device can reverse thirteen seconds of events, which supplies the time-travel connection. The interesting move is to check the plot, not the genre label. A comedy can satisfy a time-travel category just as well as a serious science-fiction film.

Two checked examples, not the complete accepted-answer list. Scores belong to this dated official dive.

02

Countries with official French

A gentle hint +

Look beyond Europe. The condition is official-language status, not simply a large population of French speakers.

A stronger nudge +

Think of an island country in the South Pacific.

Vanuatu 100 pts · Krillion gem

Another accepted example: Canada · 10 points.

French has official-language status in Vanuatu; the country is not simply a place with French-speaking visitors. Split your mental map into regions before choosing. The Pacific can lead to a less immediate answer than a familiar European or North American country.

03

Animal emblems on brands

A gentle hint +

Picture the actual logo rather than a product with an animal-themed name.

A stronger nudge +

Think of an East African beer and a very large land mammal.

Tusker 100 pts · Krillion gem

Another accepted example: Ferrari · 10 points.

Tusker’s elephant emblem is the animal connection behind this accepted brand answer. This prompt rewards visual memory. Picture the bottle or label first, then retrieve its name; a brand association alone may not meet the logo condition.

04

Subjects studied as a degree

A gentle hint +

Search your memory of arts and performance courses as well as science and business degrees.

A stronger nudge +

Think of a traditional musical instrument played with an air bag.

Bagpiping 100 pts · Krillion gem

Another accepted example: Biology · 10 points.

Bagpipe performance is a degree specialism at Carnegie Mellon, making this more than the name of a hobby. Narrow performance specialisms can be valid subjects of study. Starting from broad departments and then branching into instruments is a useful recall strategy.

05

Things that can be lit

A gentle hint +

Explore unusual fuel sources as well as familiar household objects.

A stronger nudge +

This surprising choice is an oily fish, also called eulachon.

Candlefish 100 pts · Krillion gem

Another accepted example: Candle · 10 points.

Candlefish is another name for eulachon. Its oil-rich dried body can serve as a burning light source. The useful distinction is between something that can burn and an everyday object designed to be lit. The selected answer illustrates how broad this particular accepted set is.

06

Dishes with deep-fried chicken

A gentle hint +

Focus on the cooking method. A chicken dish is not automatically a fried-chicken dish.

A stronger nudge +

Look for a Chinese dish whose name also evokes a gourd.

OFFICIAL REVEAL · 2026-11-15

Hulu chicken 100 pts · Krillion gem

Another accepted example: Chicken nuggets · 10 points.

Hulu chicken is a fried-chicken preparation associated with Xi’an; its gourd-related name is a useful memory cue. Organize food answers by preparation and region. Remembering a dish name is only the first step; checking its cooking method helps avoid a plausible but off-category choice.

Two checked examples, not the complete accepted-answer list. Scores belong to this dated official dive.

07

Jobs with a uniform

A gentle hint +

Sport has recognizable professional dress too; do not stop at emergency services.

A stronger nudge +

Think of the referee in a sumo ring.

OFFICIAL REVEAL · 2026-11-15

Gyoji 100 pts · Krillion gem

Another accepted example: Construction worker · 10 points.

A gyoji officiates sumo bouts in distinctive formal attire, linking the specific job title to this uniform category. Try a different workplace when familiar occupations run out. Sport officials provide a useful branch of this category, and the job title can be more specific than “referee”.
