Overview

Top ten lists are a thing of the past. Today, the new thing is short lists. But how do they work? It’s quite simple: you are asked questions on different topics — but there is not just one correct answer, but always an entire list of possible answers. And you earn one point for each right answer. Whoever collects the most points wins. Have you got what it takes to guess all of the answers on the short list?
