❓Steemit Quiz 2025 - Week 8
With over 500 STEEM POWER distributed in prizes so far, it's not too late to join in!
Based upon my extremely crude calculation, that means there's another 4,000ish STEEM to be won!
🏆 Weekly Winners
It proved to be a good week for NO team (@chriddi, @moecki, @event-horizon and @o1eh) who showed their intention early in the week, answering the first 5 questions correctly and going on to score 10.5 points out of a possible 22.
Going solo, @disconnect also had a good week, scoring 5.5 points with Two Shreks and Fiona (@bluelavender, @alexanderkass and @henryclive) and Oops-a-lot (@mojociocio and @ady-was-here) answering the remaining questions.
🏆 Congratulations to NO team who will share this week's beneficiary.

Question Tracker
To appear tomorrow once the questions begin!
It was nice to introduce a couple of guest questions this week - there have been 144 questions asked so far and whilst it's easy enough to create questions in some of the existing categories, I'm struggling to maintain the variety to stop things getting stale so please shout if you have any ideas for GPT-proof questions.
I'm open to feedback about type of questions, level of difficulty and anything else as the quiz progresses. Please feel free to share your thoughts with me at any time.

I wasn't really sure, the number was a bit too obvious. After the second attempt, however, it was clear to me what it was leading to - the "spelling mistakes" couldn't be a coincidence...
Just like in the next question. Unfortunately, I discovered it too late to think about it. But you did brilliantly - congratulations!

Also, der Teil mit meinem Vote. Das mit der Unabhängigkeit stimmt so halb. Wenn der Proxy nicht votet, zählt dein Vote nicht mit. Warum auch immer dies so festgelegt wurde...
https://steemworld.org/proposals
But look - it says your vote's proxied to moecki. I think they're connected to witness proxies.
Of course, I could be wrong. Your vote's there but it's crossed out!

Still blank! 😅 but the good thing is we are running out of famous cities.
Rome
👎 Ha ha! There are a lot of cities in Europe!
Athens
02nd clue please...
👎 chriddi has the correct answer - London. They're all places that PSV Eindhoven have travelled to in Europe.
Rotterdam
👎 I'd love to go to Rotterdam. I bet it's beautiful.
You are in France (Paris, Parc des Princes) on March 5, 2025, and play against Liverpool FC (Champions League Round of 16).
👎 I will not be in beautiful Paris.

It's not 7!
What to do... alexanderkass's answer was outside the question and there was an 8th correct answer - All the Songs. I'll have to void the question now I think!

Question 5
🎵 Music 🎶
From a musical point of view, which of the artists below is the odd one out and why?
You will only be awarded the point if you correctly identify the image and the reason.
0.00 SBD,
0.00 STEEM,
1.48 SP
(2) Celine Dion is primarily a performer - not a songwriter...
(Phil Collins writes and produces much of his own music, and Kylie Minogue and Kish Mauve, who have songwriting credits on some of their songs.)
0.00 SBD,
0.25 STEEM,
0.25 SP
👎 That's not the link that I'm looking for.
Has Celine Dion really not written any of her own songs?
Yes. I was surprised too.
I think it is No. 1 (Kish Mauve) because she has not yet had a number 1 hit.
0.00 SBD,
0.24 STEEM,
0.24 SP
👎 The answer's not related to the chart position of any of their songs.
Celine Dion (2)
She has no song with the title „In Your Eyes“.
Phil Collins does (1981), Kylie does (2001), and the Band Kish Mauve does (2007).
0.00 SBD,
0.23 STEEM,
0.23 SP
👉 Well... I don't know what to say. That's one heck of a coincidence as the answer that I'm looking for is extremely close to what you've discovered...
I didn't want you taking it 2 heart so I didn't say 👎
0.00 SBD,
0.00 STEEM,
0.79 SP
Nevertheless Celine Dione.
Kish Mauve wrote and recorded „2 Hearts“, Kylie Minogue made „2 Hearts“ a successful hit singing it after her comeback and Phil Collins has his hit called „Two Hearts“.
Celine has got only one heart… ❤️
0.00 SBD,
1.20 STEEM,
1.20 SP
✅ Correct! Celine Dion only sang about One heart, all of the others sang about Two.

0.34 SP
The Cardigans (01) are the only pop band, whereas the other artists are solo performers.
👎 Image 1 isn't The Cardigans
My bad! still (01) Kish Mauve is the odd one out, Because all other released their albums or gain major recognition in the 1980s.
👎 I'd count Phil Collins in the 70's too whilst with Genesis.
Phil Collins (4) is odd.
He is the only one who has never sung a duet with Kylie Minogue (2), been staged by Kylie (1) or is Kylie himself (3).
Harsh. But probably true.
👎 I don't know if the 1st artist has performed with Kylie. It's possible.

Phil defends himself... 😎
Question 6
🎭 Celebrity Numbers 🔢
Another one of my favourite rounds, and this time, I'll update as quickly and regularly as I can.
In this round, each person can request the unmasking of any numbe, which will unmask a square on the image below.
You then need to figure out who the celebrity is!
Once again, ChatGPT gave me 3 random numbers to get us started!
Remember though, an incorrect guess will lead to a 3 hour wait!
Once the image is updated, you can request another number (even if you're on your 3 hour wait)!

Ed Helms
👎 It's not Ed Helms - it does look a bit like him from The Hangover though!
I should have waited a bit more.. 😥
Question 3
🎵 Music 🎶
My music collection’s all jumbled! I found this song, but I’m sure it should be something else:
It's Arthur Kent and Sylvia Dee as Lin-Manuel Miranda It (And The Beatles)
What should the real song title be, and why?
0.00 SBD,
0.00 STEEM,
1.43 SP
It’s the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine) by R.E.M.
A hit track from every artists mentioned.
0.00 SBD,
0.00 STEEM,
6.02 SP
✅ That's correct! The artists ended up in place of the song titles!
"Bring me sunshine" - Kent and Dee worked together on different songs... This one remembers to "Good day Sunshine" from the Beatles.
0.00 SBD,
0.01 STEEM,
0.01 SP
👎 It's not 'Bring me sunshine' - disconnect has the correct answer.
We could do with some sunshine - the weather's miserable here.

We were most recently in Boise, Idaho and have a new travelling companion - Spuddy Buddy. You've had an unusual time in Idaho State which has been somewhat Over the Top. You've decided that it's time to Go.
You head back to the airport and book a flight that leaves within the next couple of hours. You've heard that your destination is Where It's At and feeling rather Sleepless, you decide that you've got time for a few drinks whilst you wait.
Hopefully,you won't get a Hangover once you're Up in the Air.

Question 7
⚽ Sports 🏏
In snooker, I pot the balls in the following order:
Red -- Black -- Red -- Black -- Red -- Pink -- Red -- Yellow -- Green -- White
How big was my break?
0.00 SBD,

1.27 SP
26 points.
0.00 SBD,

3.97 SP
✅ 1 + 7 + 1 + 7 + 1 + 6 + 1 + 2 + Foul = 26
0.00 SBD,
0.00 STEEM,
0.72 SP
Shouldn't it be,
(1 + 7) + (1 + 7) + (1 + 6) + (1 + 2) + 3 + Foul = 29
The only time that you can pot the green is after the yellow. But... after every red, you have to pot a colour - So the final red followed by the yellow is correct. Then, you've got to pot the yellow again before you can move on to the green.
Sneaky aren't I 😆
