Answer and distance feedback
Jeremy represents Ecuador. Capital reference: Quito. The distance entries below are copied from this edition's official table, not measured from capital to capital. A 0 km entry is not a correct answer unless it matches the target country; rounded geometry is not proof of a shared land border.
- Colombia: 0 km
- Peru: 0 km
- Brazil: 486 km
- Panama: 651 km
- Costa Rica: 860 km
Clue explanation: what the guest describes
Jeremy recalls sweet plantain from his grandmother and a Galak white-chocolate bar shared with siblings. He distinguishes mountain cuy from the coastal ceviche his family eats and describes varied landscapes and biodiversity. His reveal says his parents are from Ecuador, he is from New York, and the language was Spanish. Present residence therefore should not override the family-root clues.
Scoring on this replay
For this edition, correct-answer base points are multiplied by 0.7 for each earlier miss and rounded once to the nearest 10. A solve with all eight clues and two misses scores 1,470. Three misses or giving up instead use the nearest guess for the separate closeness score.
