A prompt with a long Elusive or Farflung tier has a wider answer set than its first few names suggest; the cards below show every accepted country, not just the ones that scored furthest.

Farflung answers FAQ

How are Farflung tiers calculated?

Every accepted answer is sorted into one of five bands: Common at 40 km, Uncommon at 55 km, Rare at 70 km, Elusive at 85 km and Farflung at 100 km. The band depends on how rare the pin was among players — the fewer people who named a country for that prompt, the higher its kilometre value. This site reads the bands from the official day file rather than recalculating them.

Why did my Farflung answer score 0 km?

A 0 km result means the pin was not accepted at all. Either the country is not on the game’s list for that prompt, or it fails the condition the prompt asks for — a coastline it does not have, a border it does not share, a range it does not touch. Only answers that clear the condition appear on this page, so a country can be a perfectly real place and still score nothing.

How many answers does each prompt accept?

It varies a lot by prompt. The five questions in Expedition 31 accept between 10 and 43 answers each, 148 in total, and the count on each card is the official tally for that day. Broad prompts collect dozens of answers; narrow ones collect a handful.

What does the gem mean?

A featured gem is the game’s own pick for that prompt — usually the rarest or most surprising accepted answer, sometimes two of them. The gem is not a different tier: it still sits in one of the five kilometre bands and is marked with a star in the list. Expedition 31 has 5 of them, each with a note explaining the pick.
