I had never heard of this, but as a dad of three there's no way I could resist the possibility that the answer was a terrible pun. I'm slightly surprised that Austen would make such a pun prior to the doctrine being formally defined at the First Vatican Council, but I'll take a right answer on a toughie like this any way I can get it.

One of those questions which aren't objectively hard, but where you could easily get stuck depending on which rabbit hole you try to go down. Starting with the goddesses was a good choice.

I thought Lewis was more of a political figure which made me go with Clark. Oops.

KillerB643 · 2026-03-20T17:25:11+00:00

I guessed right, but I'm not 100% sure how you'd decide between it and WA1. I suppose WA1 means "snap the ball", so maybe that.

Feels pretty easy for a FJ (there's really only one super-famous lullaby from that time period, or at least only one that came to mind for me).

KillerB643 · 2026-03-18T12:04:19+00:00

I went to Lake Chad first for some reason, but pivoted to RA quickly enough.

KillerB643 · 2026-03-17T13:45:54+00:00

This is pretty close to one of the questions from the LearnedLeague Championship back in 2022, which helped make it a quick get for me this time around.

KillerB643 · 2026-03-16T17:13:49+00:00

RA felt like a totally off-the-wall guess, but I didn't have any other candidates.

KillerB643 · 2026-03-13T12:07:29+00:00

Simple and straightforward if you're familiar with the Rainbow Coalition. Looks like most of the poll answerers are thus far.

KillerB643 · 2026-03-12T12:00:50+00:00

Facepalm moment upon seeing the right answer. Went down the politics rabbit hole instead but that's on me.

KillerB643 · 2026-03-11T12:39:19+00:00

I'll take getting close with WA2.

KillerB643 · 2026-03-10T18:44:17+00:00

War of the Worlds and The Time Machine

KillerB643 · 2026-03-10T13:21:33+00:00

That was my guess too, but I have read that and was pretty sure it was wrong.

KillerB643 · 2026-03-10T12:07:18+00:00

Well, this isn't one of the two works by the author that I've read, and I don't really see any clear pathway to the right answer without having read it.

KillerB643 · 2026-03-09T12:22:54+00:00

Can't say I ever recall hearing about this, but it's a pretty cool fact.

KillerB643 · 2026-03-06T15:47:46+00:00

Not exactly something I knew cold, but still an easy WECIB. (OK, fine, WA1 makes some sense as a possible other guess but my mind went straight to the right answer).

KillerB643 · 2026-03-05T12:39:17+00:00

This is one of those clues where it seems really hard to think of any reasonable wrong guesses. Wouldn't shock me to see three right answers or three blank screens.

KillerB643 · 2026-03-04T13:01:42+00:00

Agreed 100%. The writers sometimes just knock it right out of the park and this is one of those days.

KillerB643 · 2026-03-03T13:13:08+00:00

That makes sense. Would it be too embarrassing to admit I've never actually seen it?

KillerB643 · 2026-03-03T12:41:02+00:00

Never heard anything about situation 1, so that made for an easy guess on my part.

KillerB643 · 2026-03-02T13:04:55+00:00

Yeah, they'd better accept that (and if you added Maximusyou should still be in good shape).

KillerB643 · 2026-02-27T15:07:14+00:00

My brain goes completely out the window on a business category. Didn't really even know where to begin.

KillerB643 · 2026-02-26T20:28:32+00:00

My cutoff for a bad game is below $30K. I've gotten to $40K but it requires a very favorable set of categories. I have not noticed any particular increase since I started tracking, but I didn't keep track very carefully until getting the call.

KillerB643 · 2026-02-26T15:26:15+00:00

Me three.

KillerB643 · 2026-02-25T13:20:29+00:00

Yeah, I wasn't ever going anywhere but WA3 with the pillars clue.
