Any chance you could accept "Caesar Augustus"? I tried that, and it didn't work. I know "caesar" is a title, but that's how I usually hear him referenced, much like Genghis Khan or Julius Caesar.
This seems to be a common thing. I don't know if it's incorrect, or simply a variation. For simplicity's sake "Augustus" seems preferable. But I suppose I'll allow "Caesar Augustus" too.
How come when i typed 'conjunctions' it knocked me back? As a grammar nazi i was pretty disappointed in myself until i discovered i was right anyway. Please accept pluralised answers when you give multiple examples.
Since the correct/accepted answer was "conjunction", you should have gotten it if you entered "conjunctions." It would have taken it before you even typed the "s".
Same here. My first language is French, and we call it "Serment d'Hippocrate", so I tried "Hippocrates Oath". Should that be accepted or is it really never used that way in English?
Same, I'm Brazilian and we call it "Juramento de Hipócrates", so I tried "Hippocrates" as the answer (and later on "doctor" and other variants to see if it would be accepted- with no luck).
Not quite. He was Robin for 44 years (1940-1984) and is currently at 35 years as Nightwing. And while Nightwing should (and now is) absolutely an acceptable answer to the question, Robin should be as well. His time as Robin is still a major part of the character's history, both in-universe and out.
In the movies from the 90s dick Grayson was robin, so he's definitely been robin more recently than the 70s, and far more people know the movies than the ridiculously extended universe of the comics. In the comic books theres been a whole bunch of incarnations of robin that nobody would know except the hardcore fans, for anybody that doesn't read the comics. Robin = Dick Grayson
makes sense to have a type in for the hardcore ppl, but not accepting Robin would be terrible.
This is an odd complaint, unless you're somehow counting (in incredibly poor taste, it seems to me) the questions related to Nazi-era Germany as somehow "jewish culture". Was the quiz changed from a really Jewish-heavy quiz since this comment was posted?
For some reason I couldn't think of conjunction and typed FANBOYS instead (it's how we remembered the most common conjunctions: For And Nor But Or Yet So) and I'm disappointed but not surprised that it isn't accepted
For outsiders all German secret police is the Gestapo. There were actually multiple organizations that often were in competition with each other. The most important of these was the Sicherheitsdienst or SD, which predates the Gestapo and was the entity that organized most of the Holocaust. Despite their horrible crimes, they have stayed under the radar. Usually people confused them for the Gestapo. This was true during the events and persists to this day where most movies talk about Gestapo officers persecuting Jews, while they were in fact SD.
So it should be good to accept either SD or Sicherheitsdienst as alternative answers.
allow connectives for conjunctions? they call them that in some uk schools; although i think it's on the way out some people still know them as connectives
Any chance you'll accept alternatives for "Hippocratic Oath"? I had no idea how to say that in English, so I tried "Hippocrates", "doctor", "doctor's" and "doctor", but none of them worked.
That's a bit old to be fighting criminals isn't it?
I'm starting to find this whole superhero thing a little unrealistic
