The information in the placeholder post is wrong; I'm making the images with the correct information now and I'll cross this off when I'm ready for you.
Fixed.

I messed up the image, so I'm only acknowledging the first spin.

Stop at a Whammy.

You finish the round with no money, but that's an easy fix since I've got four more questions for everyone. You know the rules for those by now.

QUESTION 1 OF 4

What do I study if I am a vexillologist?

You were shown as having two spins due to mod error. Occasionally I forget to debit a spin once it gets taken.

Since we've all passed, this is now for a spin apiece:

What do I study if I am a vexillologist?

  1. Playing cards
  2. Flags
  3. Writing utensils

We have three different answers, so somebody's getting a spin this question, and if I am a vexillologist, that means I study...

What do I study if I am a vexillologist?

  1. Playing cards
  2. Flags

  3. Writing utensils

Xalxe picks up a spin!

Too lazy to do an image update right now, but it is a knight.

That puts Nobody Special at three spins, Save The Dragons at one spin, and Xalxe at two spins.

QUESTION 3 OF 4

The title character of this 1817 historical novel by Sir Walter Scott has been called the Scottish Robin Hood. Interestingly, the protagonist of the novel is Francis Osbaldistone, not him. What is the novel's name?
