Correct.
Ys are optional in this quiz. I never take that option.

y more commonly represents a vowel than a consonant.
i feel like only connect would have some really arcane rules for semi-vowels and the like.

I think he is actually heavily involved. He started off as a producer, and I've heard him talking about pitching formats.

osman has actually developed and produced a bunch of game shows. it was what he primarily did before being plonked in front of camera for pointless. probably couldn't handle being less famous than his brother.
