1, 100%. I pretty much figured out it was the highest something above sea level, and it was two characters. After giving it a good, long stare, that’s what popped into my head.

Yeah, I almost wasted guesses on what I already knew had to be second-highest, but figured I could skip them since I already knew that’s what it was.

Should’ve gotten it in 1, but I was trying to remember the name of the mountain. I could tell what it was about just from the length and the first line.

Lucky. I ran through all the teenage mutant ninja turtles and when it wasn’t one of them I was worried I’d just not come up with it and did sweat it for a couple minutes. But I’d guess if there were 5 turtles, he’d be the 5th. And after him I think the only other Italian artist I know is Benvenuto Cellini (I had to read his autobiography in college English class) and I knew he wasn’t a painter. I cheated on the first name, btw.

After guessing all the Ninja Turtles I got it (not sure how much longer I could guess); but had to look up the first name

After guessing all the Turtles, I exhausted my knowledge of Italian painters. I had to look it up.

After misspelling his name three times, I just looked it up. I didn’t know his first name, either. I knew it was him from Birth of Venus up top, but I seriously did not know the vowels nor how many t’s in his name

Italian painter of the early renaissance. Looked at the approximate number of characters, couldn’t think of any name I thought made sense. Googled it and his was the first name I tried.
No turtles for you?
When it’s an article about a person, I try to get the month and day of their date of birth and date of death. That way, if I’m stumped, I can just pull up the Wikipedia article from that date and scan the list of people born or died on that day.

That did not cross my mind for some reason.

Slow start. Lots of small hits, then ‘political’ at 54, and I tried ‘ideology’ but not ‘philosophy,’ so I was looking for something a little more concrete. Finally got ‘government’ and ‘right’ which got me to political parties and finally ended this one.

I went to google for help with philosophy, but honestly, the info I got from the search didn’t help me much. I got political and freedom on my own. And it was pretty straightforward from there.

I knew I’d be annoyed with myself once I finally got this one. That took me far too long. Noticing that the root of the word was freedom is what let me finally get it.
What tripped me up is I think of libertarianism as a political party, not a philosophy.
