The 20 Questions I had yesterday on the FunTrivia Knockout Tournament had two relating to the South African language and wildlife. Or, to animals near there. This player probably faces questions unrelated to South Africa almost every time he/she plays but yesterday was his/her day.

I had an academic year of Reading Dutch at the University of Minnesota so I got the Afrikaans Language question right but could not tell a zebra from a okapi in the other. Dutch and Afrikaans are related languages. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Afrikaans_and_Dutch

Still I have had a great December 2015 for FunTrivia Knockout Tournament wins with 3 weekly just this month and picked up 16 points so far this month in the Knockout games. You should try it. Fun Trivia Quizzes - World's Largest Trivia and Quiz Site! (http://www.funtrivia.com/?ref=Taltarzac)

I will probably face Walvisbaai some time in the future in another FunTrivia Knockout Round.

This week I fell to the South African player who seems very fast and accurately. I got a 1710 and he earned 1810. Many of the questions were US based so I wonder how he gets all of these right. Perhaps he/she is a transplanted American or went to school here or just loves US culture.

I was unlucky on my last two guesses too. Luck does have a lot to do with these multiple choice games.

I really wanted that 2016 weekly win though.

These tournaments are fun even if I had some agony with this 1/2/2016 defeat. If you would like to start FunTrivia try this link-- Fun Trivia Quizzes - World's Largest Trivia and Quiz Site! (http://www.funtrivia.com/?ref=Taltarzac)

Looks like Walvis Baai is Walvis Bay.

...as far as beating them in the weekly Knockout Tournaments.

There has been a small group of players whom I hope I do not see again in the Tournaments like metry_mudbug, dellastreet, and especially Mumskyat. I cannot recall ever beating these trivia players when I faced them on their way up the leaderboard. metry_mudbug's user profile -- FunTrivia.com (http://www.funtrivia.com/profile.cfm?player=metry_mudbug)
