Yeah tbf Shaun if you're allowing United Kingdom as a ****ing city then Niamh's answer shouldn't be causing too many issues.

I don't know if I already clarified for the moons question for Pointless, so here goes since it'll need more explanation than most. The idea of what does and doesn't constitute a "moon" is confusing as hell; anyone who watches QI will know that astronomers love to pretty much make it up on the spot and change their mind all the damn time. SO... to avoid confusion, but without spoiling potential answers for either game, I will say that the following planets have the following numbers of moons (ignoring Earth because our moon doesn't count for the question)

Mercury - 0
Venus - 0
Mars - 2
Jupiter - 79
Saturn - 82 :omgno:
Uranus - 27
Neptune - 14

and Pluto isn't a planet any more so its five moons do not count :(

I will only accept answers from the above numbers

Oh and for "renewable energy types"... there are six of them, and that is that :ninja2: again, can't say what they are because influencing answers etc, but if you google "renewable energy" then 6 types come up at the top.

Mitchell 29-08-2020 02:54 PM

Actually not doing as bad as I thought considering I’m always mid table

I'll post the Pointless scores, and the mid-way league tables, tomorrow, or "today" lol, I am literally nodding off

To tide you over, here's Round 6 to get thinking on.



1. Name a documentary or series presented by Sir David Attenborough
2. Name an element on the periodic table whose symbol is a single letter
3. Name a type of renewable energy
4. Name a moon that is in our solar system (other than Earth's moon)
5. Name a winner/laureate of the Nobel Prize for Chemistry
6. Name a species of animal that has suffered at the hands of poachers
7. Name a species of bird that is native to the UK
8. Name a country severely impacted by the Boxing Day Tsunami of 2004
9. Name a poisonous type of mushroom
10. Name one of the body's five senses


For the Pointless edition: For #2, there are fourteen correct answers and they have one letter for their chemical symbol. Please name both the element AND the symbol. For #7, they must appear in the wild. For #8, I am considering countries that took physical damage only. Plenty of countries lost tourists to the disaster, but I am only accepting answers that were in the Pacific/Indian Ocean. For #10, the five senses are pretty obvious and there's no sneaky "ESP" or whatever to try and suggest :p

All of the other questions are pretty open to interpretation unless you go completely off the rails and start naming moons from solar systems other than our own :spin2:

.

Rob! 29-08-2020 03:51 PM

God looking for countries affected by that tsunami and you forget just how devastating it was.

Calderyon 29-08-2020 05:19 PM

15th and 11th place are okay accomplishments so far.

I will send mine tomorrow Shaun, been really busy today

Shaun 29-08-2020 05:44 PM

There's nothing more soul-destroying than thinking you've chosen a really well-known city in Barcelona and then watching the entire forum send in a vote for THAT bloody place one by one :sad: I thought "in Europe" would make people automatically stray outside of the UK

I thought that too, even if I was going UK I'd have probs gone Birmingham before Manchester

James 29-08-2020 06:25 PM

The reason I didn't put Barcelona was that capital city can have different meanings - Barcelona is the capital of Catalonia, and Munich is the capital of Bavaria.
