5----
6!!Tropes:
7* BlatantLies: Gary trying to explain that Duryard is a student village near Exeter, while both Matt and Chris have their heads in their hands, laughing at how unconvincing the story was. Ends up {{subverted|Trope}} when it turns out he's entirely right.
8* CallBack: When Matt makes a reference to Music/BurtBacharach, Tom mentions how he keeps thinking of the phrase "Music/BurtBacharach back, sack, and crack"; it was one of the prizes they previously used in ''WebVideo/CitationNeeded''.
9* DidntThinkThisThrough: Gary in round one points out that dismissing him was a terrible idea as Tom misremembered his own question.
10* {{Metagame}}: When asked what "Willoughby Run" is, Matt takes the text of a completely different Wikipedia article (namely, [[Music/RahsaanRolandKirk Roland Kirk]]'s album ''Slightly Latin'') and uses that as the basis of his "lie". Tom even says of it "Oh, you are metagaming this! I don't like this!" at the end of the episode.
11* SesquipedalianLoquaciousness:
12** Matt's use of the word "Mononym" when asking for his answers' context slightly convinces Tom of it being true.
13** Chris's use of "Chert Nodules", which he claims is a type of rock and the way it has eroded.
14* StrangeMindsThinkAlike:
15** Tom jokes that Chris and Gary [[CrazyPrepared pre-emptively came up with]] a story of Duryard being an English village and Chris also mentions it's a town in Nebraska that's ''named'' after that village.
16** Gary and Chris also give similar answers to what Willoughby Run is; the former says it's a creek in Pennsylvania, the latter says it's an eroding river valley named after the Willoughby estate.
