How the crowd plays it
Ask a room of players this question and the first shout is "Paris". The ones who fancy themselves sharper go for "London" — which is precisely why it only scores 15: in Noillirk, feeling obscure is the most common feeling there is.
Real depth starts at "Sarajevo" (Deep Cut, 85) — an answer you have to actually know, not just prefer. And at the bottom of the ladder sits "Cortina d'Ampezzo", the designated One in a Noillirk: the single answer the bank's research says a room produces once.
Playing this prompt backwards
When this question surfaces in a dive, your 25 seconds are best spent in reverse: first, name the Plankton answer silently and let it go; second, refuse the Too Clever answer unless the clock is dying; third, search your second page — the runner-up, the older one, the one from the smaller place. In history, that means remembering that history is written by the winners; the mirror shows the other archive. Ask who lost, who was second, what it was called before — the reversed questions produce the rare answers.
This prompt appears in the daily rotation, in Unlimited mode and — drilled on its own category — in the History pack. Its full answer bank is also published whenever its day closes, in the archive.
