This is just notes ok
1. The Patella is the kneecap, so that's one And the Femur is the big bone on top that you use in video games to bash people when you start out in a dungeon or something, so that's also one. why isn't this a science question. Where is lalaladucks when you need her. Crap. It's Tibia/Fibula, Ulna/Radius. One of those is arm and one is leg. Um um um.... I think Tibia is the shin bone and the other is the lower arm. So that rules out ulna Tarsals are fingers? Or toes? Oh no carpals are fingers, so those are toes. There's also metatarsals but I don't remember what that means. Maybe those are the toes and the tarsals are the bigger ones in the foot. Or maybe the other way. zzz hopefully the foot just doesn't count

2. Fuck what is a hockey
Anaheim Ducks Washington Capitals Colorado Avalanche Vancouver Canucks New Jersey Devils Dallas Stars
God I have no idea. Ok scientific analysis coming Anaheim Ducks. ...... I don't know. I can't imagine a team from California winning anything ice related. no? Washington Capitals. Didn't they win last year? Against the new team in Vegas? I remember vaguely hoping the Vegas team would win because they do weird stuff on the ice during breaks. And people in DC freaking out. I think. Sure. Colorado Avalanche sounds like a team Peg would root for and teams Peg roots for never win so no. Uhhhhhhhhhhhh Vancouver Canucks sounds like a fake team New Jersey also never wins anything so no. This is too many nos hmm Dallas wins everything because fuck Dallas, so sure.

Olympic games question really depends on if it's summer only or not. Too bad I only pay attention to stupid crap like curling ugh
I can't remember Austria ever hosting anything but, I think it's in Alps territory to it'd make sense for a Winter place I can't imagine Portugal hosting anything, they're awfully small. You need big $$$ to host the games Greece is obvious, they invented the damn thing Netherlands also seems way too small to be a host Belgium too, can't imagine they did one Italy, yeah Italian alps are great for winter, Rome has to have hosted something at some point Spain makes sense for a summer games spot too, rich country, I hear Madrid is beautiful, sure
why isn't Japan on here, the Mario thing was hilarious Switzerland, also in the Alps. Hmm that's a lot in that one area. It's also really small though. Maybe?

Bomb mechanic means, guessing on iffy answers is a bad idea because you lose all points.
1. I feel good about these. Patella, femur, tibia, tarsals if foot. 2. I have no clue at all, who watches hockey, polar bears? So I'll only guess a couple basically at random, because guessing 0 is the same as guessing a bunch and missing one 3. Depends on if summer and winter both. I'm not super familiar with these but I think my reasoning is sound. Greece/Italy/Spain have to be correct, Swiss and Austria are iffy but I can see it. If no winter games drop those for, if winter is ok maybe take one?

But who would seriously name a professional franchise the "Canucks". Or is it a Wifom thing and that's team from like 1880 that won and doesn't exist anymore.
argh
I'm leaving a lot of points on the table though if I don't guess more. Hmm hmm hmm. I guess I can throw in Colorado, that's a cold place, surely they play hockey somewhere. What does that give me, Washington, Colorado, Dallas? Just 3 of 6? Well, better 6 points than 0 I guess.

Hmm that's a lot in that one area. It's also really small though. Maybe? Ok let's think about this one more. It's both Olympic types, only 1 wrong answer. So far I have Greece, Italy, Spain, maybe Switzerland, maybe Austria, both for Winter games.
Leaving Portugal, Netherlands, Belgium, all too small. The winter games aren't huge ridic spectacles like the summer ones, a smaller country could maybe host something. Who hosted recently... South Korea is rich, Japan is rich, was Russia summer or winter? They're rich, London was rich, the US ones were rich. Hmm. If one of these 3 did host something, maybe it was a long time ago.
I still can't remember Portugal ever hosting anything. It lacks the ability to host a winter games, so they'd have to do summer, and they just don't have the infrastructure. Belgium and the Netherlands could host Winter games. Western European nations are small and close together, plus the EU probably helps..? Gah I hate losing more points here too by playing safe when I'm already losing a ton because hockey is stupid.
