Some days it just clicks- yesterday's one was an ordeal!

Trebuchet is a bot (or just smart as hell 😤) .

Ok, but what is Keto?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

Keto is

Quito, Ecuador.

But yeah, I didn’t get it either.

Tap for spoiler

I found the Golden Girls trick answer to be cruel.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I fell for it too, then realized it's spelled with an E.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

I'm aware that that's a show that existed, but was completely incapable of falling for the trick because I couldn't name a single character in it (and could only name a single actor).

Proud of getting this one perfect, although I was convinced yellow was a red herring and that sent me down a big rabbit hole

Yeah, I was guessing. I know you can tell. I’m not ashamed. I would have never guessed purple ever. As you can guess, I’m a dumb American. 😅

As you can guess, I’m a dumb American

Actually, quite the opposite. I usually find this puzzle to be designed in a way that's easier for Americans than the rest of us, because of references to American culture or American vocabulary or pronunciations.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I’m not referencing the puzzle, but purple itself. We don’t know the capitals of other countries here, generally speaking of course.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

Oh of course. Yeah, purple was a tough one.

Spoilers

I didn't even recognise that Keto was Quito after I had accidentally stumbled into purple, when I did realise what Roam and Soul were.
