Re: TD 426 - Grab Bag (Q1-Q6 revealed)
7. Name a US city with a population of at least 100,000 that borders a city in another state or district by land or water.
This, along with the next question, garnered the majority of the drops. Music and Geography are far and away my favorite topics, but I do take this sort of feedback into consideration in planning future TDs (my music question also was mass dropped in my last TD).
Also, somebody asked whether Kansas City, Kansas would have been acceptable, and the answer is yes.

Stray mutt found on the streets of Moscow, became the first dog to orbit the Earth. Laika
Pet cat of Bill Clinton, who was rehomed after Clinton left the White House. Socks
Cat who lives in a Rhode Island nursing home, and has come to the side of over 100 residents in the hours before their death. Oscar
Sheep who was the first cloned mammal. Dolly
Gorilla who died in 2018, and was famous for learning “Gorilla Sign Language”. Koko

Pigasus - 1 (singleton!_
Shambolic
Drop - xxaaaxx
Unused - Oscar
And we've come to our final question, where we separate the sheep from the goats...
11. Animals (unnamed)
Name an animal mentioned in the Bible (no Apocrypha, and real animals only, so no dragons, leviathans, unicorns, etc.).
Apparently many of you jumped at the opportunity to submit "ass" as a TD answer (I think only one person actually put "donkey"). Also, I didn't even think about the logistical problems about having a question where "sheep" is a legitimate answer. Thankfully, that didn't sheep. That would have been a nightmare to sort through.

A week after finishing on the podium, I was one point out of last place heading into the final question. Alas, a singleton foiled my chances at an anti-podium finish.

Re: TD 426 - Grab Bag (all questions revealed)
First time playing so I'm just glad I didn't finish all the way at the bottom! I have to admit, I'm surprised black olives was a co-sheep on the Domino's question.
All in all, a great quiz!

Thanks for hosting! As a side fun trivia note, the greyhound is the only breed of dog that is *explicitly* named in the Bible! File it away!
