Remember the surrounding peaks
A famous summit can be a starting point for your memory. Think about other peaks in the same landscape, or mountains you have seen without climbing. Choosing a lesser-known neighbour is often more interesting than repeating the headline name.
A peak is an entry, not a range
Use the name of the mountain the question asks for. The answer bank distinguishes individual features, and a mountain range is not automatically an accepted substitute for one of its peaks.
Height and obscurity are different
A height restriction decides which entries fit a prompt. Obscurity still comes from English Wikipedia pageviews compared with the whole mountain category. Passing a height rule does not give a separate rarity bonus.
Three places to start with
| Place | Obscurity | Dig |
|---|---|---|
| Gora Kurumdy ↗ | 10% | 15.0 m |
| Great Pond Mountain ↗ | 55% | 82.6 m |
| Cima Falkner ↗ | 88% | 132.1 m |
These percentages are calculated from the game’s stored pageview data, using the same code as your dig. They are not live visitor counts or the percentage of players who know an answer.
Examples fit the unrestricted category. A round with extra conditions may need a different answer. Read the full scoring method.
