hopefully that's my bad round, then I may be able to get a tad higher in the top ten, if it's my good round or average though.

What a mistake with all those ignorant here.
I was going to switch to Augustus for that reason, but since it doesn't have to be the correct answer I stuck with Julius which did OK.

Tomorrow it's Christmas, which also means the deadline. If you still want to submit, you have 26 hours left. 11 submissions so far.

ok, no rush, I was just wondering.
I've sent it in right? Last time this happened it turned out that I sent it to the wrong account (well maybe no account).

Here I post another way to post the results of the rounds:
https://www.pcmspain.net/t4376p60-esto...ida#110921
I´m running this game in PCM Spain. We have finished 1 complete game (5 rounds) and 2 users tied!
I hope you won´t mind on copying the game in other forum (where I am running CTWWYPCM too, with some success, not as here )

Sorry for the delay, shouldn't happen again.
George VI was the dominant answer here. Only Henry VIII also got more than 1.
Spoiler 7 George VI
3 Henry VIII
1 Henry I
1 Henry VI
1 George V
1 Edward VIII
Qin Shi Huang was the most chosen here, by 5 different people. Puyi got 3.
Spoiler 5 Qin Shi Huang
3 Puyi
1 Qin
1 Xuantong
1 Nuwa
1 Wu Han
1 Kangxi
1 Liu Shan
The closest round. Louix XIV, le Roi Soleil was chosen most, closely followed by the last French king, Louis XVI. Two people thought Napoleon was king as well, but no, he wasn't.
Spoiler 5 Louis XIV
4 Louis XVI
2 Napoleon
1 Clodion
1 Rudolph
1 Louis Philippe I
As expected, the last Russian tsar was answered most. Only Ivan the Terrible got more than 1 as well.
Spoiler 7 Nicholas II
2 Ivan the Terrible
1 Peter the Great
1 Rurik
1 Sviatoslav
1 Ivan VI
1 Alexander the Great
Once again, the last monarch was the most chosen, with Wilhelm II winning. Frederick the Great came closest.
Spoiler 7 Wilhelm II
4 Frederick the Great
2 Albert
1 Frederick William II
No perfect rounds this time. Marcovdw and Dippofix both get 29. SSJ2Luigi and Roturn get 27, SN gets 26.

In the overall it's even closer. SN and Dippofix lead together with 53, Marcovdw is just one point behind.

Phew! A relief to have only lost 10 points at most on that round, I guess having only 11 people going for the big answers helped me here. Also interesting, nobody got the 5 point maximum on both questions 2 & 3.

God Dammit I could have sworn I sent my answers but I think I put it off because I couldn't think of the Chinese one.
In any case Henry VIII was not a British king as Great Britain did not even exist.

Also, Louis XVI was not the last French King by quite a bit.

You're right BBL, stupid mistake of me.
Anyway, a reminder that the deadline is now 24 hours away, so if you want to send in 5 answers, do it within 24 hours of this post.

Name a country with a GDP per capita of under 2500$
The best answer you could give here was only worth 2. Kyrgyzstan, North Korea and the Central African Republic brought this score. Even the incredibly wrong answer UK brought half that.
Spoiler 2 Kyrgyzstan
2 North Korea
2 Central African Republic
1 Zimbabwe
1 UK
1 India
1 Rwanda
1 DR Congo
1 Ivory Coast
1 Ghana
1 Afghanistan
New York was by far the most answered. Co-leader SportingNonsense ruined his chances here by being the only one answering London.
Spoiler 12 New York Stock Exchange
1 London Stock Exchange
1 Bolsa Mexicana de Valores
Yup, once again the best answer only brought two. Saxo Bank, Tinkoff Bank and China's Bank brought this max score of two.
Spoiler 2 Industrial and Commercial Bank of China
2 Tinkoff Bank
2 Saxo Bank
1 ING
1 Wells & Fargo
1 HSBC
1 Barclays
1 Bank of England
1 Citigroup
1 Privatbank
1 JP Morgan Chase
Monopoly was the clear winner here. Co-leader Dippofix also lost any chance of a good result thanks to not answering correctly. SN managed to answer incredibly wrong with Dow Jones as well.
Spoiler 8 Monopoly
2 Monopolistic Competition
1 Duopoly
1 Free Market
1 Dow Jones
1 Capitalism
Name a winner of the Nobel prize for economy
The obvious answer was this year's winner, and he won this round as well... No other answer got more than 1. The Hobbit refused to google for an answer here.
Spoiler 11 Jean Tirole
1 Lars Peter Hansen
1 Milton Friedman
1 No answer
Once again not a single perfect round. 5 people won the round together though. fjhoekie failed in scoring a 5-pointer thanks to Kyrgyzstan.
Spoiler Marcovdw | North Korea | New York Stock Exchange | Citigroup | Monopoly | Jean Tirole | 2 | 12 | 1 | 8 | 11 | 34 | jseadog1 | Kyrgyzstan | New York Stock Exchange | JP Morgan Chase | Monopoly | Jean Tirole | 2 | 12 | 1 | 8 | 11 | 34 | jihardy | DR Congo | New York Stock Exchange | Saxo Bank | Monopoly | Jean Tirole | 1 | 12 | 2 | 8 | 11 | 34 | OZrocker | India | New York Stock Exchange | Tinkoff Bank | Monopoly | Jean Tirole | 1 | 12 | 2 | 8 | 11 | 34 | baseballlover312 | Zimbabwe | New York Stock Exchange | Industrial and Commercial Bank of China | Monopoly | Jean Tirole | 1 | 12 | 2 | 8 | 11 | 34 | matt17br | Afghanistan | New York Stock Exchange | ING | Monopoly | Jean Tirole | 1 | 12 | 1 | 8 | 11 | 33 | roturn | Ghana | New York Stock Exchange | HSBC | Monopoly | Jean Tirole | 1 | 12 | 1 | 8 | 11 | 33 | lakebeach | CAR | New York Stock Exchange | Wells Fargo & Co | Monopolistic Competition | Jean Tirole | 2 | 12 | 1 | 2 | 11 | 28 | Dippofix | CAR | New York Stock Exchange | Industrial and Commercial Bank of China | Capitalism | Jean Tirole | 2 | 12 | 2 | 1 | 11 | 28 | SSJ2Luigi | United Kingdom | New York Stock Exchange | Tinkoff Bank | Monopolistic Competition | Jean Tirole | 1 | 12 | 2 | 2 | 11 | 28 | rogvi97 | Ivory Coast | New York Stock Exchange | Barclays | Monopoly | Lars Peter Hansen | 1 | 12 | 1 | 8 | 1 | 23 | SN | North Korea | London Stock Exchange | Saxo Bank | Dow Jones | Jean Tirole | 2 | 1 | 2 | 1 | 11 | 17 | The Hobbit | Rwanda | New York Stock Exchange | Bank of England | Free Market | No Answer | 1 | 12 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 16 | fjhoekie | Kyrgyzstan | Bolsa Mexicana de Valores | Privatbank | Duopoly | Milton Friedman | 2 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 6 |
Due to Dippofix and SN failing Marcovdw takes the lead, Dippofix is following 5 points behind.

And here are the new questions
1. Name a book
2. Name a literature Nobel Prize winner from before 2000
