These questions were written to be asked in Toronto on 2019-06-11,
and should be interpreted accordingly.
On each question you may give up to two answers, but if you give
both a right answer and a wrong answer, there is a small penalty.
Please post all your answers to the newsgroup in a single followup,
based only on your own knowledge. (In your answer posting, quote
the questions and place your answer below each one.) I will reveal
the correct answers in about 3 days.
All questions were written by members of Unnatural Axxxe and are
used here by permission, but have been reformatted and may have
been retyped and/or edited by me. For further information see
my 2019-01-22 companion posting on "Questions from the Canadian
Inquisition (QFTCI*)".
** Game 4, Round 9 - Geography - Double-Booking
(No, you haven't missed a set. I've just realized that some work
is needed on Round 7 before I can post it, so I'm going to skip
ahead and Rounds 7 and 8 will come afterwards to complete the game.)
Be careful booking your next vacation. In a world of possible
place names, there's considerable duplication. In this round,
we'll give the locations of two different places that share a name
(in English). You give that shared name. For example, if we said,
"344 km NNW of Paris; 168 km WSW of Toronto", the answer would be...
London.
Note: In the original game the example put London at "415 km W of
of Paris", and there were many other examples of wrong directions.
I have reviewed all questions and substituted correct distances
and directions. (Distances are measured by "straight lines" --
i.e. great circles -- between the city centers that Google Maps
uses, and not by roads; directions are shown to the nearest 1/16
of a circle, e.g. N or NNE.)
1. A city 633 km NW of Moscow; a city 27 km SW of Tampa.
2. The county seat of Franklin County, Kansas; a city 352 km NE
of Toronto.
3. The capital of the Mexican state of Baja California Sur; a city
415 km NW of the Bolivian capital of Sucre.
4. A city 43 km from Dover; the city across the border from
St. Stephen, New Brunswick.
5. A city 713 km NE of Melbourne; a city 314 km ENE of Halifax.
6. A city 391 km NNW of Lyon; a city 152 km NE of Dallas
7. Ruins of a city, 22 km south of Cairo; a city 316 km WSW of
Nashville.
8. A city 51 km NNW of Edinburgh that's home to St. Johnstone FC;
a state capital 3,291 km W of Sydney.
9. A city 98 km ENE of Atlanta; a city 306 km SSE of Thessaloniki.
10. A famous fictional TV city; a city 130 km WSW of Boston that's
home to the NBA Hall of Fame.
* Game 4, Round 10 - Portugal Challenge Round
Yesterday, June 10 was Portugal Day. So, thanks to the Raptors,
a belated Portugal Day to one and all.
* A. Geography
A1. A part of Eastern Canada is still named for a Portuguese
explorer, whose name means "farmer" or "landholder" in
Portuguese. Portugal laid claim to it in the 15th century.
A2. Two archipelagos in the Atlantic are Portuguese autonomous
territories. Name either one.
* B. History
B1. Portugal is arguably the oldest country in Europe. If you
ignore the period of about 60 years when it was part of
Spain, then its borders have not changed since which year --
within 100?
B2. The first king of Portugal, Alfonzo I (1139-85) was descended
from which Capetian dynasty, most associated with France?
* C. Sports
C1. The soccer ("football") franchise Sporting CP, commonly
referred to as just "Sporting", is based in which Portuguese
city?
C2. Name the one Portuguese-Canadian on the Toronto Maple Leafs.
* D. Entertainment
D1. This Portuguese-born actress starred in Busby Berkeley's
"The Gang's All Here" in 1943, which introduced her trademark
fruit hats. In 1945 she was the highest-paid woman in the
United States. Who?
D2. This beloved instrument is a Hawaiian adaptation of the
Portuguese machete de braga, which was introduced
by Portuguese immigrants in the late 19th century.
What instrument?
* E. Inventions
E1. This psychosurgical procedure won its originator Antonio
Egas Moniz the 1949 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine.
It's now a byword for medical barbarism. What is it?
E2. What type of wine originating in the Minho region of Portugal
is made by fermenting young grapes with the wine being
released 3-6 months after the grapes are harvested?
* F. Miscellaneous
F1. Lisbon is home to Europe's longest bridge at 12.3 km.
Who is it named after?
F2. With over 800 km of coastline, Portugal boasts an average
364 days per year of what balance-testing pastime?

(Trivia note: originally St Stephen, NB was going to be named Dover, so
they named the city in Maine to match the two on opposite sides of the
Channel. But for reasons I don't remember, they changed the name of the
NB town, leaving Calais, Maine without its complement.)

"Jeopardy!" had a category based on the same idea the *same day*
as the original game, but their version stayed in North America and
only used one of the 20 places in our round. The places they used
were Arlington (TX, VA), Springfield (MA, IL), Vancouver (BC, WA),
Lafayette (LA, IN), and Rochester (NY, MN).

In the original game the "if" note was not there, leading to a
rather annoyed protest from me, which was denied.

The *same day* as the original game, GSN's new and rather badly

this question. Then on 2019-06-19, "Jeopardy!" asked what instrument
