Spoiler: Possible Answers
As we conclude round 1, we see our first shared answer of El Salvador from skitter30 and Oso. Meanwhile, xtoxm hits the post with Mexico, whilst some geographers consider a portion of southern Mexico to be part of Central America, Mexico as a nation is not considered as part of Central America.

Only Kublai Khan manages to make it through round 1 unscathed, but his lead could quickly evaporate as lots more points are up for grabs in round 2, where unique knowledge can net you a lot of points.

Question 1:
Steamboat Willie; the first animation by Walt Disney Studios with synchronised sound, was the debut of which iconic cartoon character?

We are now in Round 2, where questions have a single correct answer and all you have to do is give me it, then pray no one else was able to.

Remember to ask yourself; What Would They Know?
Also, what is NM doing? Worst play I’ve ever seen.
I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.
I'm guessing you haven't read the game and probably never will? Why even sign up to play?

Just Xtoxm misses the mark this go-around, giving all of his opponents 2 points, everything is still up for grabs though.

The American flag has 50 stars, representing the fifty states and 13 stripes, representing the 13 original colonies that broke away from Great Britain, including Virginia which contains the first permanent British settlement of Jamestown.

Everyone gains a point in another clean sweep.

The chances of getting a flush or higher in 7-card poker is a mere 5.82%, which still dwarves the 0.0032% chance to get a royal flush, the best possible hand.

Our first universal stumper sees no change in the scores.

"Lady Chatterley's Lover" refers to her gamekeeper; Oliver Mellors, with whom she has an affair after her husband is injured during the war. Lady Chatterley's Lover was the subject of a landmark obscenity trial in the U.K., the trial's not guilty verdict paved the way for much more freedom in UK publishing and other media.

We have our first solo correct answer, which see Oso pick up 5 points and puts him just one point behind Kublai Khan going into the last question of round 2.

Prokofiev is one of the 20th centuries most influential composers, his ballets and operas remain popular around the world and his compositions have been used in shows such as The Apprentice UK, which uses Dance of the Knights as its theme.

That makes Kublai Khan our champion, make sure to congratulate him.

Will send out PMs to KK and the next 4 players in the queue making sure they still want to play, the others players in this game can let me know if they want to be added back to the end of the queue. Let me know if you enjoyed the game and how you think it could be improved

Do I REALLY suck? That's up to you to decide.

Retiring from LSG's and Mish Mash, for the most part. If you want to contact me, I suggest going outside and enjoying what the world has to offer, instead.

Definitely DID suck, in the end...Probably.
