TSR Quiz of the Week #181! (1 February 2025)

It's time for TSR Quiz of the Week!



Welcome to the latest installment of the Quiz of the Week series. Visit the master thread for more details of theseries, and to sign up for notifications when a quiz goes live!

How it worksThis quiz is conducted via Google Forms and there is no need to prove your score for this, as the quiz asks for yourTSR username and I can see all responses.

Filling in a valid TSR username is a requirement for being placed on the scoreboard. Please feel free to commentyour scores below - it's fun to see how others have done!

The tiebreaker question is a free-typed question where the answer is a number. If there's a tie for first place, the winner of the prize will be the person who gets closest to the correct answer. (And it can also help us spot anyonewho looks like they might have received help from the internet as they did the quiz!)



Scoring
The form will automatically score the quiz for you. The prizes awarded are as follows:
100 rep
50 rep
30 rep


Happy quizzing!

Says 1/9 but I got 2/9 according to the answers.
Note to self: read the questions properly 🙈
5/9 but will some questions be manually checked as I had 2 that were very similar wording?
:ta: for the quiz.
Also, Tiebreaker was exactly right.
4/9 plus the tiebreaker I would argue! (I think I got the spirit of the Louvre one :lol:)

6/10 as I got the tiebreaker correct and the other two questions as well.

Nice quiz, the questions felt less niche compared to the last quiz.

I am not sorry
5/9 I think - the first question doesn't have a mark attached to it, and I think I got the third question right but will need a manual check!
