I picked hades because it was a place in mythology and I figured the others were gods ..
That was awesome.
Each planet has something unique about it. To say Jupitor doesn't belong because it is a gas planet would be your way of thinking. I say Pluto doesn't belong because of it's slanted orbit. Some scientist want to exclude Pluto as a planet. Maybe Mars because it is the only red planet. Venus rotates in the opposite direction than all the rest. So Venus is a good choice, too. Editors, you let another one go by. Yes, I am a bitter teaser submitter.
zeus because the rest of them start with H or A
it was easy thank you that im good at mythology
i didnt get that one..
There are multiple answers for this little tease. I think the fact that so few people responded means...
i did not get that one
There are multiple answers for this teaser. At first I picked Hermes because he was a messenger, not a god. After the hint, I picked Hades because I didn't think there was a planet named after him. But, alas, your anwer is also correct.
How about Aphrodite being the only goddess ... from whence woman come
I agree with the previous comments - there is more than one correct answer which kind of makes it moot.
But the hint points you in the right direction I think. It tells you that it relates to the roman names, and the title is a hint too, Planets, I think these could steer you away fro m the other possible answers.
I agreed with umhlobo because I knew that Aphrodite was the only goddess.
yup - i went aphrodite as the only woman...
I thought Aphrodite at first, but the hint brought me back on track. Awsome teaser, great job
I thought I solved it for the same reason as Bo did. So, once again I was wrong. Very good teaser, Thanks for posting.
