Question 1

What is a One in a Krillion answer?

Accepted Answer

A One in a Krillion answer is the rarest possible response to a Krillion prompt, worth 100 points. These are answers almost nobody else thinks of — the deep cuts that separate leaderboard runs from average dives. Use the explorer's tier filter to browse every 100-point answer in the bank.

Question 2

How many rarity tiers does Krillion have?

Accepted Answer

Krillion has six rarity tiers: One in a Krillion (100 points), Deep Cut (85), Rare (60), Schooler (30), Too Clever (15), and Plankton (10). The rarer your answer — the fewer players who would give it — the more points it scores.

Question 3

What is the difference between Rare and Deep Cut answers?

Accepted Answer

Deep Cut answers (85 points) are genuinely obscure picks that most players miss. Rare answers (60 points) are uncommon but reachable — the kind of answer a knowledgeable player produces on a good day. Both beat the obvious Schooler and Plankton picks by a wide margin.

Question 4

How do I find rare answers for a Krillion prompt?

Accepted Answer

Think in clusters, not singles: rare answers travel in packs within the same niche. Avoid your first thought (usually Plankton), skip the textbook answer (usually Schooler), and reach for the specific, the regional, and the slightly old-fashioned. The explorer lets you study real examples tier by tier.

Question 5

Can I practice with these answers?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every prompt in the explorer links to its full strategy guide, and you can test your instincts in the Rarity Trainer, run themed Category Packs, or attempt the 50-prompt Marathon — all free, no account required.
