SWAMPCRASH MARCH MADNESS CHAMPIONSHIP WEEK
Sorry for the delay, was busy n shit.
Anyway here's the final set of questions. I'd like to do this on Friday so try to get them back by Friday at noon eastern time. If people can't do that I'll push it back to early next week but I must warn you that if that occurs, we're going to be forced to pay extra to Jon Secada.
1. Name a RETIRED* NFL QB who had a career of 15 or more seasons and spent them all with one franchise. *ie don't say Aaron Rodgers (10)
2. Name the assassin/murderer of one of the following (10):
Abraham Lincoln
James Garfield
William McKinley
Robert Kennedy
Franz Ferdinand
Martin Luther King
John Lennon
Gianni Versace
Lee Harvey Oswald
Anton Cermak
(Not grading spelling here within reason)
3. Name one of the 12 pitchers to have 310 or more strikeouts in a single MLB season SINCE 1903. (12)
4. Since 1900, nine countries have been the site of an earthquake of magnitude 8.5 or higher. Name one of them. (""Offshore New Zealand"" would count as New Zealand) (9)
5. Name the artist/band who had one of the "one hit wonder" songs below (10):
Puttin' on the Ritz (1983)

7. Name one of the ten US cities (BY METRO AREA/REGION) that are home to the headquarters of 15 or more Fortune 500 companies (as of June 2022). (10)
8. Of all the players to win a Hart Trophy (NHL MVP), 11 are still active in the NHL (Joe Thornton hasn't officially retired but I'm considering him inactive). Name one. (11)
9. The modern Olympic decathlon is made up of ten events - four track events, three jumps and three throwing events. Name one of the events. (10)
10. According to some dumb language site (Langoly.com represent), 13 languages are spoken by more than 125 million people worldwide. Name one. (13)

OT2. Of the 30 companies that currently make up the Dow Jones Index, 13 were also in the Index 30 years ago in 1993. Name one of them. (If ShitCorp was listed in 1993, merged with PissTech in 2008 and is now listed as ShitPiss, it counts as a correct answer). (13)

Re: SWAMPCRASH MARCH MADNESS CHAMPIONSHIP WEEK
Confession time, never realized Singapore was an island, I always thought it was connected to Malaysia, but there is a strait separating it from Malaysia. I started to type that the auto-content made sense, because GPJ wouldn't call Singapore an island. Then I Googled, and I'll be damned!

Yeah Johor Bahru, Malaysia is right across a bridge and basically serves as a manufacturing/industrial area that wouldn't fit in Singapore. IIRC at least

Re: SWAMPCRASH MARCH MADNESS CHAMPIONSHIP WEEK
There should be an all star game where all the questions are simple and should theoretically be able to get a 1 (dunk?)
Name a number between 1-100 (100)
Name a country (195)
Name a former president or Vice President of the United States (94)
Name a team in one of the big 4 American sports (124)
Name a team in FBS football (133)
etc and so on.
And now typing this I think it may have been done. Rass! To the archives!

Re: SWAMPCRASH MARCH MADNESS CHAMPIONSHIP WEEK
I did an alternate kind of Swampcrash a few years back that was something like this. It was a survivor-pool type thing where there was one question each round and anyone with a non-unique answer would get eliminated until there was just one person left.A_B wrote: ↑Thu Apr 20, 2023 3:37 pm There should be an all star game where all the questions are simple and should theoretically be able to get a 1 (dunk?)

Just sent. The QB one had me really racking my brain, as I'm only 100% sure of one answer.
ETA: Welp. I didn't go with the 100% sure answer and just checked, and mine is wrong.
