Yes, that's right - Mark was describing that when playing solo, if you don't know the answer immediately, you can either pass very quickly if you know you have no idea and not waste time, or spend a little time attempting to recall the answer.

Mark did also acknowledge that (that not having anybody with whom to confer is the disadvantage for solo players.)
Personally, I think the game is beautifully balanced. The more players, the better your chances of winning, but with an added speed benefit for a solo player. I'd have thought having 2 players in the final chase is the worst-case scenario.
