Pretty close podium. But I was decent in most rounds. One of the next I will win.  |

Round 1 - The Netherlands
Yes, I'm chauvinistic 
1. Name an alternative name for The Netherlands
2. Name a former Prime Minister
3. Name a province
4. Name something people often associate with The Netherlands
5. Name a cyclist from The Netherlands

Oh those questions are hard, luckily I've heard of something called google.

Round 1 - The Netherlands
1. Name an alternative name for The Netherlands
An attempt to prevent 5-pointers, but it turned out to be a creativity test for them. Of course Holland was the most named answer.
Spoiler 17x Holland
1x Dutchmanlands
1x Flatland
1x Kelderland
Could be a google question, or for someone with a politics-fetish. The current PM, Mark Rutte, was named twice albeit incorrect. His predecessor, Jan Peter Balkenende, was the top answer.
Spoiler 11x Balkenende
2x Kok
2x Lubbers
2x Rutte
1x van Bosse
1x van Heemstra
1x
With only 12 possible answers, another difficult test for the 5-pointers. Noord-Holland proved to be the best answer with 6 mentions, 2 ahead of South-Holland
Spoiler 6x Noord-Holland
4x Zuid-Holland
3x Limburg
2x Flevoland
2x Zeeland
1x Friesland/Fryslân
1x Noord-Brabant
1x Utrecht
A lot of divers answers, with 2 points being the best score. Special mention for TheManxMissile, who is pretty close to a points deduction
Spoiler 2x Cheese
2x Clogs
2x Orange
2x Weed
2x Windmills
1x Annoying, whiny, childish, arrgoant and annoying forum members (including you  )
1x Campers
1x Cycling
1x Failures
1x Flat
1x Football
1x Jesley
1x Low
1x Robin van Persie
1x Weird sausages
Thanks to someone's obsession, my home-town cyclist Wilco Kelderman was the best option
Spoiler 10x Wilco Kelderman
4x Bauke Mollema
3x Niki Terpstra
1x Jan-Willem van Schip
1x SSJ2Luigi
1x Lieuwe Westra
No perfect score, but knockout came close by 1 point. If he had named something more Dutchie, he would've gotten the maximum number of points. matt17br came 1 points short for (joint) victory. SSJ2Luigi completes the podium. Dippofix and TheManxMissile both failed in their 5-point-attempt.

Pedantic time for Q4: isn't flat land the same thing as low land? Assuming jihardy was referring to that and not calling Dutch people short!
Orange is actually the obvious answer there really, so interesting it only got 2
