These answers belong to our October 11, 2026 puzzle. They are not the official krillion.io daily solutions. Each prompt defines a bounded list; use the wording to check whether your candidate belongs before thinking about points.
The October 11, 2026 challenge brings together technology, geography, science, space history, games, sport and space. These notes follow the seven prompts in their playing order, using the answers and spellings published for this exact date. Compare the examples below after your round: the point differences describe this independent edition's scoring, not how frequently other players choose an answer. Each reference explains the subject; our editors assign the game points.
1 / Technology
Name one of the seven layers in the OSI networking model.
“Presentation” receives 100 points, while “Transport” receives 30; switching from the first to the second would cost 70 points in this round. The category boundary still matters. The OSI reference model separates network communication into seven layers. The TCP/IP model groups responsibilities differently, so its internet layer is not an extra OSI layer. Another accepted response is “Physical”, worth 30 points in this edition. The recorded alias “physical layer” resolves to “Physical” and receives the same 30 points; it is another accepted way to name that answer, not an extra item in the list.
Advanced question · difficulty is separate from answer points.
This prompt's published list contains 8 accepted names. Among them are “East”, “North” and “Northeast”. An eight-point compass adds northeast, southeast, southwest and northwest to the four cardinal directions. More detailed bearings such as north-northeast belong to a sixteen-point compass. “East” receives 30 points, while “North” receives 10; switching from the first to the second would cost 20 points in this round. The recorded alias “NW” resolves to “Northwest” and receives the same 100 points; it is another accepted way to name that answer, not an extra item in the list.
Standard question · difficulty is separate from answer points.
Name one of the 22 coherent SI derived units with a special name.
Some derived units have dedicated names, such as newton for force and joule for energy. Others are written as combinations of units; square metre is derived but has no separate special name in this 22-unit list. “Joule” receives 10 points, while “Henry” receives 100; switching from the first to the second would add 90 points in this round. Another accepted response is “Volt”, worth 10 points in this edition. The recorded alias “Celsius” resolves to “Degree Celsius” and receives the same 30 points; it is another accepted way to name that answer, not an extra item in the list.
Specialist question · difficulty is separate from answer points.
Name an astronaut who walked on the Moon during the Apollo programme.
Consider “Alan Bean” and “Alan Shepard” before reading the full list. Six Apollo missions landed twelve astronauts on the lunar surface between 1969 and 1972. Command-module pilots stayed in orbit, so astronauts such as Michael Collins are not in this moonwalking set. “Alan Bean” receives 60 points, while “Alan Shepard” receives 30; switching from the first to the second would cost 30 points in this round. Another accepted response is “John Young”, worth 60 points in this edition. The recorded alias “Jim Irwin” resolves to “James Irwin” and receives the same 100 points; it is another accepted way to name that answer, not an extra item in the list.

Name a suit in a standard 52-card French-suited deck.
This prompt's published list contains 4 accepted names. Among them are “Diamonds”, “Spades” and “Clubs”. A standard French-suited deck has four suits and thirteen ranks in each suit. Red and black are colours shared by suits, not additional suits. “Diamonds” receives 60 points, while “Spades” receives 30; switching from the first to the second would cost 30 points in this round. The recorded alias “club” resolves to “Clubs” and receives the same 100 points; it is another accepted way to name that answer, not an extra item in the list.
Standard question · difficulty is separate from answer points.
The four Grand Slams are annual tournaments in Australia, France, Britain and the United States. The Davis Cup and ATP Finals are different competitions. “US Open” receives 30 points, while “French Open” receives 100; switching from the first to the second would add 70 points in this round. Another accepted response is “Wimbledon”, worth 10 points in this edition. The recorded alias “Australia Open” resolves to “Australian Open” and receives the same 60 points; it is another accepted way to name that answer, not an extra item in the list.
Standard question · difficulty is separate from answer points.
This prompt's published list contains 4 accepted names. Among them are “Ganymede”, “Europa” and “Callisto”. Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto are Jupiter’s four large Galilean moons. They are only a small subset of Jupiter’s moons, named for Galileo’s observations in 1610. “Ganymede” receives 60 points, while “Europa” receives 10; switching from the first to the second would cost 50 points in this round. For the third example, “Callisto”, the published tier is 100 points.

Game point tiers, not measured player frequencies.
Every accepted answer receives 10, 30, 60 or 100 editorial points. A less familiar answer may receive a higher tier, but these values do not measure how frequently real players choose it. Each of the seven questions contributes at most 100 points, so the daily total is out of 700. Explicit aliases and unambiguous single-letter corrections in longer names are supported. The game displays a corrected name when it accepts a typo. Review after playing if you want to avoid spoilers.
Each prompt describes a set, such as planets or chess pieces. Every listed member is accepted. The points beside it are editorial game scores: a higher number rewards the answer we chose as less obvious, rather than measuring how many players picked it.
My answer wasn’t accepted
Check the exact scope: Canadian provinces exclude territories, for example. Spacing, capitalization, accents and punctuation are ignored, and selected common aliases are accepted. We also accept an unambiguous one-letter typo or adjacent-letter swap in a name of at least six letters, unless that question disables typo matching. Short or ambiguous matches must be typed correctly. Feedback shows the corrected name and a knowledge note. If an answer is missing, use “This answer should count” in the game to open an email draft to [email protected] for review. The revealed list defines what this edition accepts.
Questions about this daily answer set
Are these the official Krillion answers for October 11, 2026?
No. This page covers Little Fun Games’s independent October 11, 2026 puzzle. Our seven questions, accepted answers and editorial points are separate from the original game at krillion.io.
Why does each question have several accepted answers?
Each question asks you to name one member of a defined set. Every name in its accepted list counts; you only submit one answer per question. Read the category boundary and compare the alternatives after playing.
What do the points beside each answer mean?
The 10, 30, 60 and 100 point tiers are editorial game choices. They do not measure how often real players submit each answer. Seven questions can earn at most 700 points, and the same accepted answer keeps its assigned score.
