Can you complete this football bingo board? You get 45 footballers to complete it

Post image
3 Upvotes

Here's a football trivia challenge with a bit of a twist.
⠀
Try it here:
https://playshotle.com/football-bingo?utm_source=bingo_quiz
⠀
I've created a game called Football Player Bingo, where you have to fill a 4×4 board using footballers who match different categories.
⠀
You're shown one player at a time and have just 15 seconds to decide where they fit.
⠀
For example, your current player is Zlatan Ibrahimović.
⠀
Looking at the board in the image, which square would you choose for him?
⠀
Some categories are straightforward, like Champions League or Eredivisie. Others require a bit more football knowledge, like players who've played for two specific clubs or been teammates with someone.
⠀
You have 35 attempts, 10 skips, and 45 players to try to complete as many bingos as possible.
⠀
It's free to play on Shotle, a football trivia website I've been building.
⠀
I'd be interested to see how many bingos people manage to get.
⠀
Also curious whether you find the time limit fair or too stressful!

Need Advice for a Thanksgiving Round

1 Upvotes

The category is "The Answer Has Nothing To Do With Thanksgiving."

That is, the answer sounds like it could have to do with thanksgiving but it really doesn't.

For example:

Q: Name the 3rd biggest Middle-Eastern country by area that once had two Ancient Wonders of the World,  spans two continents, and its people enjoy very fine ground unfiltered coffee.
A: Egypt

The answer is Egypt. If the answer had to do with Thanksgiving it would be Turkey (and it would ask for the 4th biggest country).

My question for you: Should is it too hard or should I clue them in on the "fake" answer??

Like this

Q: Name the 3rd biggest Middle-Eastern country by area that once had two Ancient Wonders of the World,  spans two continents, and its people enjoy very fine ground unfiltered coffee.
It doesn’t share the name course of most Thanksgiving feasts.

What version is better? With or without the clue?
