It's tough to come up with something that aren't google proof. Q2 & Q3 can easily be googled - just a quick copy and paste. Q1 is the ideal since google could not provide some specifics, so one has to dig a bit more.
I have a question, though. What if someone identifies a connection that differs from what you initially found - would you consider it, or is it fixed based on what you came up with and what suited you?
Ah, but is Google’s answer specific enough… or in one case, the link that I’m looking for?
I’m looking for a specific connection. There might be another connection but for each question, I have something specific in mind.
For example, they might all have train stations, or baseball teams, etc. and if that’s what I’m interested in, it’ll be that the train stations are all called “/city heights” or the baseball teams are all named after the state’s national bird. Or maybe they hold a record for most lost Superbowls.

So to answer this, it’s fixed to my initial thought process.
Does waiting a bit to see if anyone can guess 50% of the the right answer a good strategy? 😅
Maybe... if you get the 50%, you get a 2nd guess. If you're not close though, you leave... with nothing. So maybe if you don't have a clue, it might be worth waiting... although somebody's got to have a guess at some point! Oh, the dilemma! But maybe that's where the team element can help too 😉
If I can guess the right answer based on the 50% clue already revealed, does that mean I only get 50% of the upvote or 100%?
50% for getting close, then the remaining 50% will go to the person who completes the question. Which will be reflected in the points for the individual / team - half a point for each.

On this, I might add a hint which will resonate with the answer.
I’ll update questions 1 and 2 this morning and reset everybody’s attempts.
Question 2 might not be as straightforward as Google might suggest (assuming it gets you close).
So you are looking for a specific connection that you happen to fancy. Then this is a game of chance. This is so hard! 🥲
A hint to narrow it down, as you said, might make this round a success. We'll see.
GOOD! 😛
The hint should help - especially if Google (or another tool) points you in the right direction.
🥲
This is brutal 🤣 It took me a while researching those, only to end up being muted 😤

Ah, sorry. I only muted it so that you get another chance!
Did you play steemcurator’s flashquiz over the summer. The hours I spent on that was insane!!
Shame, I haven’t. But the fact that it took you hours shows how difficult the quiz must have been!
So far in this round, I have no luck 😂.

Hours of Google Maps Street View trying to find a bicycle perched above a shop (it's here if you're interested)
