Post ---------- Matryoshka, next time please, notify me via PM, OK? ---------- End Oh dear... I thought there will be the etymology kind of thing saying what does the word "battery" mean or something... I first obvious thought was B: Bats, now when seeing that you're looking for an animal for a collective noun of "battery" meaning that's a "battery of [blank]"... I have absolutely no clue I'm afraid... A "battery of bats" doesn't sound right for me since the correct collective noun for bats is a "colony" for the other 3... I'd leave it to you since again, I have no clue whatsoever. Good luck, my friend.

Thanks @paola16gula, well, he ruled out bats, and I thought that a collection of Beavers was called a colony, so I'd like to confirm my use my Double Dip, and first I will lock in C: Buffalo, Final Answer.

Well, I didn't think it was A, and the Expert didn't think it was B, and it's not C, so I'll lock in D: Barracuda, and that's my Final Answer.

Pretty sure I know this. I think it's a mushroom, I don't want to switch, and I don't think I need to revive a lifeline. I'm sure I've heard this... Yeah, I'm pretty sure, so D: Mushroom. Final Answer.

The right answer was Honduras.
Here´s the substituted question for € 250 000.

Straight away I'm thinking Burma. I know it's a €75,000 drop... But I'm pretty confident on this one. It definetley isn't Thailand, and I'm pretty sure it isn't Cambodia. If I remeber rightly he was against communism, which rules out Vietnam, being a communist country at the time I think he was around... I may regret this, but I'm gonna play Burma. Final Answer.

Here's question 11 out of 13 for € 500 000. Remember, you can still revive your Double Dip, Expert or Switch.

OK, I don't think it's either C or D. They just don't sound right. I wouldn't imagine US economists paying their own currency especially during the Great Depression of the 1930s. World War II veterans... meh. I don't think so... And this is the point where I would walk away with no lifelines left. With answers A and B remaining I'm completely stuck. If I'd take a blind guess between the two, I would pick the Esperantists. But again, that's only a guess. Once again, millionaireloveruk, Good Luck.
