I have a problem with this one:
Only Greenland & New Guinea are larger islands in size than this one in the Pacific
WHAT IS BORNEO?
Looking at a map I can’t agree that Borneo is in the Pacific. It is behind the Philippines.
@RH in CT, Looking up the Philippines in Wikipedia, it says “It is situated in the western Pacific Ocean….” The same applies to Borneo– most of the waters surrounding it are part of the western Pacific.
FJ wasn’t super-obvious, but really not too tough. Same with the 3rd largest island with an “O.”. Oahu is miniscule in comparison.
All 3 players who didn’t know the 7th letter of the alphabet should forfeit all $$ won tonight. 🙂
I’d much rather see tight games than runaways/streaks, but Sean could be playing for awhile.
The FJ was more than obvious here, and all of the contestants go it right. Good show!
Happy to see a triple solve today by all the players. Dan mcshane will be proud of his cousin for a well played game today. Congratulations everyone.
