80 categories · no repeats

Every Hooked category so far

From 27 Oct 2026 through 11 Nov 2026 the archive published 80 categories. Every name appears once. The table is the whole set.

Five categories a day for sixteen days is eighty names, and none of them collide. That is the return rule in practice: the public how-to-play page says a category waits at least thirty days, and this window is shorter than thirty days, so a repeat would have been a surprise. There is not one.

Accepted-answer counts run from 45 to 5,557. The short end is a closed set you can almost recite: US presidents, US states, Best Picture winners, countries in Europe or Asia, NFL teams. The long end is open: cartoon characters, Halloween costumes, animals, famous basketball players. A short list is a different sport from a long one. On a short list, coverage is the score. On a long list, the specific name is the score.

Each row's Kraken is the single top answer the archive prints for that category, not my pick. Times seen is 1 for every row in this window, so I leave a times column out rather than print the same digit eighty times. When a category returns with a twist, that second date belongs in the row. It is not in this table yet.

Filter the table by category, date, or answer, and select a column heading to sort. The first-seen date links you back to its row in the month that held it. Reveal a Kraken when you want that answer. Fish-band shares for the whole window, not for one row, live on the rarity page.
