Miss Marple is an iconic character created by the world's best selling novelist Agatha Christie.

Just two players managed to answer correctly on this question, Kublai's answer; "Ten Little Indians", was a name used for the book now known as "And Then There Were None.

Yeah, I knew it was an Agatha Christie character, but most mystery titles are so generic and forgettable. Except, of course, for "Ten Little Indians", which was much tamer than it's first title.

[Formerfish]

The first title seemed fine.

[Iprobablysuck]

And Then There Were None does not feature Marple, or any main detective really

[Kublai Khan]

Yeah, I know. Still, you should donate to my "Half-Point for Khan" GoFundMe.

[Jingle]

If everyone donates to the half point for khan gofundme, does khan get two points?

[Kublai Khan]

Don't let fake math stop you from believing in the institution of Khan.

[Jingle]

Don't let real math stop you either. Also, more spectators. I need to wager meaningless points about who will get answers right with someone other than NM.

Umm.. I'm confused. There's only 1 correct answer, because only one can be the most. Is this like family feud where one Charlie can fuck the answers up and still win?

No dice. Mostly because I didn't see the bet before I saw that he was right. Did you get spectator access?
