Given the above, the Davenport answer should really only be worth half then imo.

Meh. I mean, there’s more than 1 deceased Davenport and there’s been 4 Davenports on RuPaul’s drag race, but there is only one deceased Davenport who has appeared on RuPauls Drag Race, so they’re not really wrong, per se.

I guess I just don't understand that chart then. I thought they were all on that show, and there's at least 10 of them, including 3 dead ones. But I don't really care one way or the other.

I would've also marked "Manic Street Preachers guy" as 0, just as I'd expect to be marked 0 if I said "Star Trek guy" for Yelchin. Maybe I'm just a hard marker, but I feel like if you don't at least know part of the name of the person you're supposed to identify, then you don't really know the answer.

What are the relationships on that chart? Is it like a mentor/mentees type thing? Forgive my ignorance.

I think essentially yes? I’m not an expert on drag families and don’t want to speak for that community in case I mess it up. My understanding is the mentor becomes your drag mother and the mentee becomes the drag daughter, other mentees from the same mentor are sisters, and if a mentee gets their own mentee now they’re that persons mother and the original mother is the grandmother, and so on. Most daughters take their mother’s last name. It’s a whole thing

A few weeks ago I was in a train with a bunch of women having the most impenetrable conversation, and after a long time of listening, it turned out they were megafans going to some live version of drag race. Totally bewildering.

I know that the Chicago Bulls used to be the stags but the winners of the NBA were the stags and the uniform shown was the stags so I've got to mark that one wrong

*** time. So I messed up with the World Series one. I showed you the uniform of the Boston Red Sox but the first winners were the Beaneaters, so it's only fair that I accept both as correct answers.

tough break on the Montreal guess. Really close, but they played in a different uniform and weren't the first to win the Stanley Cup.
