What Were You Thinking XIII! (Congrats D3f3nd3r!)

[Haschel Cedricson]

"Billboard" is both a great answer and also DV trying to get way too cute.

How dare you imply DV could ever be TOO cute. He's exactly the perfect amount of cute at all times.

[Datisi]

I forgot what give way signs were called over there (other than knowing it wasn't "give way"), otherwise I might have gone perfect.

in my submission, i called it "give way" since it was the only name for it i knew. and then i described the sign as well because i wasn't 100% sure if it really was the name >_>

And I'm glad you did because otherwise I would not have connected the dots!

I don't think the US has an equivalent for your other submission though.

[Datisi]

this doesn't exist in the us?

Spoiler:

well that explains why nobody else submitted it. it's definitely among the top three most common signs on roads here.

[xofelf]

What does that one mean?

[Datisi]

it's a sign that you're the one who's driving on the main road. it's used in pretty much every single intersection.

[xofelf]

Like.. the most important road in a city or whatever? Rather than some side road or something? That's fascinating!

[xofelf]

Oh, no, it's not that... A google for what European signs mean lead me to this answer: When entering towns and villages you will see this sign that indicates you are entering an area where you have priority over any vehicles approaching from junctions on the right.

[Datisi]

well, kind of. it's used when your road has right of way on junctions and intersections. kind of the opposite of the yield sign.

"main road" is probably not the right term, it was just the only term i could come up with

[DeasVail]

Yeah, we don’t have those here either (though we do have ‘give way’).

Very cool!

[Cephrir]

i think i wish we had those, i don't like guessing

[StrangerCoug]

I think the term you're looking for is "priority road", but yeah, those aren't a thing here.

[Shadoweh]

shadoweh how often are you driving on the wrong side of the road

As a pedestrian I've been told they hate it when I give directions because of these signs.

Commentary

An extremely spread-out round this time! This was also the first time I had to make some judgement calls on grouping answers together. I grouped Roses & Flowers together, as well as Rain/After the Rain/Petrichor. Baking got folded into Baked Goods, but unfortunately because one person submitted both Baked Goods and Bread, I couldn't fold specific baked items into the general category. For the same reason, "Cooking" didn't absorb any specific foods. If you don't like my judgement calls, oh well.

None of them impacted our lowest score, which was

Ircher

(hydroxide???). They drop a level along with Aronis, who gets our first activity strike. No perfect scores this time, but

D3f3nd3r

got very close with a 34!

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

[D3f3nd3r]

[Cheery Dog]

I want to pick the moneybags monopoly token.

[Haschel Cedricson]

I want to pick the moneybags monopoly token.

No you don't; nobody wants to pick the moneybags token.
