Bad luck dizzy

Almost said Mayfield for Baker, but thought someone else would. Somehow dozen got duped after changing it a few times.

I thought that entire list was pretty hard to clue for

Country is a great clue because then you know the answer is a country

Just one non-duped clue gets you which country

Country, Colosseum -> 100% Italy
Pantheon, Colosseum -> Rome or Italy?
Spaghetti, colosseum -> Italian or Italy or Rome?

Or this case we just had:

Country, highlands -> Scotland
Gaelic, highlands -> Scotland or Scottish?

My mind is seriously blown that you can think “country” is a bad clue when the word is a country

I guess the thought process is the level-war of do I/don't I submit it incase of dupes?

Yeah I can get behind that argument of course, but that’s not how I read it

Why waste a clue on country?

for people like me

If I get those clues and nothing else, I 100% don't guess Italy, let alone isolate it to any European country

I can accept that. That's why you tailor the clue to the person.

I never give "Bradbury" as a clue for skate to anyone but D1iab.

imo all worse clues because they assume the guesser has won multiple geography bees

I think I got 5 points I didn't deserve there. I was on Dizzy's team.

ETA: Looks like I got D1iab's 5 points.
