This Is Kirk! wrote:To me that seems like the exact reason they put in the bit about it being a UN member. Otherwise they would have potentially needed to accept Western Sahara as a valid answer. I thought it was a good clue because the wording specifically excluded Western Sahara.

I agree, but I might have added to the clue to specify that the correct response is an African country. Maybe that would have dumbed down the clue too much, but I would still predict a fairly low get rate.

What was wrong with Justin's $5,000 DD wager in FILMS. It gave him the lead going into final. I don't think he had enough to wager for a lock game.
