In 2005, art expert Armando Ginesi found a sculpture of
Christ on the Cross among the personal belongings of
Gabriele Maria Berardi, a friar who had died in 1984.
Ginesi showed the work to two experts specializing in the
work of artist X, and they found ‘sufficient stylistic reasons’ to
believe X had created the piece.
This lends some credence to an otherwise unverifiable story
that Berardi had told his friends and relatives: That at X’s
request, Berardi had performed an exorcism in 1947 to rid X
of a demon. Following this, X presumably gave Berardi the
sculpture as a token of gratitude.

X is a flavouring derived from orchids of the genus X.
Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortés is credited with
introducing it to Europe in the 1520s.
The name X was given by Spanish and Portuguese sailors -
it translates to “little pod”, and is the diminutive form of the
Latin word vagina, which is what the bulb of the plant looked
like to the sailors.
It’s ironic that the word X should have such suspect origins.

Animal Kingdom / Internet
The following is an excerpt from an article published by Popular
Science in September 2013:
“The most commonly heard vocalizations are a quick series of
barks, and a scream-y variation on a howl. The barks are a sort of
ow-wow-wow-wow, but very high-pitched, almost yippy. The
scream-y howl is most often heard during the breeding season, in
the springtime. It is horrible. A shrill, hoarse scream of anguish, it
sounds more like a human baby undergoing some kind of physical
torture. It is thought that this sound is used by females to lure
males for mating.”

Botany / History
Fuchsia is a colour named after the flower of the fuchsia
plant, which took its name from the 16th century German
botanist Leonhart Fuchs.
The colour fuchsia was first introduced as the colour of a new
aniline dye called fuchsine, patented in 1859 by the French
chemist Francois-Emmanuel Verguin. The dye was renamed X
later in the same year, to celebrate a victory of the French
army at the Battle of X near the Italian city of the same name.

X was an English agricultural pioneer. In 1701, he perfected a horse-
drawn seed drill that could economically sow seeds in neat rows. His
agricultural methods were adopted by many landowners, and
effectively helped provide the basis for modern agriculture.
X is also the name of a British rock band formed in 1967. At first, the
band changed their name frequently. Names were often supplied by
their booking agents’ staff. One of these staff, a history buff,
suggested the name X. The name stuck because it was the one they
happened to be using the first time a club liked their performance
enough to give them a second gig.

John F. Kennedy’s 1961 inauguration speech is perhaps most

Ironically, JFK lifted the words from famous poet and artist X, who
had used them in a different context. In an open letter titled ‘The
New Frontier’ following the fall of the Ottoman Empire, X had

Round 4 – On the Pass
• 20 questions
• Regular passing - anticlockwise, infinite bounce
• One (Wrong) Pounce Out – Pounce is available on each
question, but a wrong answer on a pounce will disqualify a
team from pouncing for the rest of the round

Question 1 / 20
The clade Sacoglossa contains several small sea slugs and
sea snails that mainly feed on algae. One example is the
Eastern emerald elysia, which is a slug found along the
eastern coastline of USA and Canada.
Sacoglossans are the only known animals that exhibit a
particular phenomenon. What?

Answer 1 / 20
Photosynthesis – Through a process called kleptoplasty, they
are able to capture chloroplasts from the algae that they
ingest, and then use these chloroplasts for photosynthesis

Question 2 / 20
Isn’t It Romantic? is a 1948 film
from Paramount Pictures. It is set in
Indiana after the American Civil
War, and follows an army major
whose three daughters are courted
by three young men.
This movie was a dud both critically
and commercially, and moreover,
went on to receive a dubious
Guinness World Record. What?

Answer 2 / 20
The shortest film review: Critic Leonard Maltin simply wrote
“No.” as a response to the film’s title

Question 3 / 20
A 1982 FIFA World Cup group stage match between West
Germany and Austria is one of the most controversial football
matches in history.
In German, the match is known as Schande von Gijón (The
Disgrace of Gijón ). In Dutch, it is known as Het bedrog van
Gijón (The Deceit of Gijón). In Algeria, it is known as
Anschluss, which was the Nazi propaganda term for the 1938
annexation of Austria into Nazi Germany.
What happened during the match, and what change did FIFA
introduce at subsequent tournaments as a result?

Answer 3 / 20
W. Germany and Austria knew that a German victory would
send both teams into the knockout stages. After W.
Germany scored the first goal in the 10th minute, both teams
simply passed the ball around, making little attempt to score
or even wrest possession from the opposition. This enraged
Algerian fans in particular, because an Austrian victory
would have seen Algeria progress instead of W. Germany.
As a result, for all FIFA tournaments, the final two matches
in each group are now played simultaneously.

Question 4 / 20
X and Y are two organizations that coincidentally shared a common
trademark. After years of back-and-forth litigation, they entered into
an agreement in 1994, by which Y accepted certain conditions, and X
dropped pending litigation against Y in exchange.
In 2000, X sued Y for various violations of the 1994 agreement,
particularly in regards to merchandising. The Court of Appeal agreed
with X’s lawsuit, and as a result Y had to make a significant change.
Y announced this grudging change on May 5, 2002 by launching a
marketing campaign titled “Get the F Out”
Name X and Y.

Answer 4 / 20
WWF and WWE – The World Wrestling Federation changed
their name to World Wrestling Entertainment on being
successfully sued by the World Wildlife Fund

Question 5 / 20
In 2008, The Indian Express published a report on the unusually
high occurrence of a particular phenomenon in the village of
Kodinhi, Kerala. This has led to the village becoming something of a
tourist attraction in recent years.
Although this phenomenon usually occurs 6 times per 1000 births,
Kodinhi displays a ratio that is seven times higher, at 42 times per
1000 births. Similar situations have been found in the towns of Igbo-
Ora in Nigeria, and Candido Godoi in Brazil.
There is no conclusive explanation yet for why this may be
happening, although research in Igbo-Ora suggests it may have
something to do with the dietary habits of women. What am I talking
about?

America in the 1920s. The idea was reportedly inspired by
the Sherlock Holmes story The Adventure of the Priory
School. Who used cow shoes, and for what?

Answer 16 / 20
Moonshiners brewing illegal liquor during Prohibition often did
so in the middle of a forest or meadow, and used cow shoes
to throw off police who were tracking them

Question 17 / 20
Often lost in Abraham Lincoln’s assassination on April 14 1865 is

During the mid-1800s, it was estimated that almost a third of
American money in circulation was counterfeit. On the urging of
Secretary of the Treasury Hugh McCulloch, Lincoln signed
legislation to form a law enforcement division to tackle the problem.
Thus, the division, titled “______________ of Division of the
Department of the Treasury” was born hours before the president
was killed.

instructions, tips and a suggested script for conducting the
event.
What is the Hunger Banquet?

Answer 18 / 20
It is a simulation meant to educate people on the dynamics and
inequity of food distribution. Participants are randomly sorted
into low, middle and high income groups, and are given a
dinner that roughly resembles what the three groups would be
able to afford.
For example, the high income group may have unlimited food
brought to them by servers. The low income group may receive
a plate of plain rice and a cup of water, and the women may
only be allowed to eat after the men.
