How to approach it
The trick is to treat the prompt as a wide funnel rather than a popularity contest. Begin with the people you know best, then deliberately travel to countries whose politics rarely make headlines and reconstruct a name from a roster you remember. National legislatures publish member lists, so recall a chamber you have read about — a small assembly, a federal upper house, a coalition partner's bench — and pick a single sitting member. Verify mentally that the person holds office now, not a decade ago. Then consider the scoring logic: the puzzle rewards answers that many people can confirm but few will think of, so an accurate, verifiable name from an overlooked country beats a famous one almost every time.
Get a hint
Start at the very top of the executive ladder: heads of government, their deputies and the senior ministers who were in office this week.
A little more
Narrow by chamber instead: a single seat in a national legislature is enough, so think of backbenchers, whips and committee chairs as well as speakers.
One step further
Go for depth over fame: a member of a small national assembly or a junior minister in a country that rarely makes the news usually scores higher than a household-name premier.

Why these answers count
Scoring here is driven by rarity rather than prominence. The single hundred-point answer, Michael Dobbs, sits alone at the top precisely because almost nobody else named that individual, while the enormous 85-point band contains tens of thousands of sitting members drawn from national chambers across every continent, from A B M Mosharrof Hossain and A. A. Rahim to Aaron Bean and Abdoulaye Diop. Those answers were correct, current and specific enough to satisfy the checker, yet common enough among players that they landed in the second tier. Below them, the 60-point group of 328 answers was presumably made up of figures who were either extremely well known, slightly stale in office, or generically described in a way that reduced their value. The lesson is blunt: a verifiable backbencher from a legislature nobody discusses is worth more than a prime minister everyone recognises, and a precise full name outperforms a vague one.
