Title: Dominion Trivia + Trivia Trivia + There are Pictures
Post by: dghunter79 on February 24, 2015, 12:23:45 am
The names of exactly two Dominion cards are entered into Google Image Search, and an image is chosen from among the front page results. Can you work backwards from the images to figure out what the twelve pairs of cards were? In some cases there may be more than one workable answer.

You can't guess that this was drawn by Alberta Venture but it might still be fun to guess the second card - April Fool's gold

14. Bridge/Tournament
15. It has to be Duke/University but I don't see that image in the results.  I only skimmed though, and results aren't consistent between everybody because Google also factors in things like location and past searches.

Yeah, I guess that one's not directly on the first results page, but if you click Campus at the top of the results page, it's there.

Whoa these other ones are great. Especially Bridge/Tournament

You guys got all of mine except 6. Yes, one of the cards was Hamlet,, but no one got the other one.

That skull belongs to Yorick, who was the jester when Hamlet was a kid. That's why seeing the skull makes him all whoa about everything. Anyway, you can just Google Hamlet and get a picture of Hamlet with a skull, but you have to Google Hamlet and Jester together to get so many skull Hamlets that you also get that one. As far as I know.

Nice solving.  Thanks!

Well #15 could also be Dook + Shanty Town given the squalid conditions of students wasting their parents' hard-earned tuition money waiting for basketball tickets while living in a tent city!
