I'll borrow a DQ, if I may.
DQ - did this person win a Gold medal in the 2000 Olympics in Sydney?

Baffled - all I have is Gail Devers and Stacy Dragila, and they've both been eliminated. I give up!

And if a DQ isn't allowed...
Was this person who ran for the Bahama Olympic team awarded a gold medal in Sydney because the person who actually finished first was disqualified for testing positive for performance enhancing drugs? Last edited by Munch; 09-24-2012 at 01:21 PM.

Hmmm. Can't think what that might be.
Well, we have one DQ earned but not asked. Anyone want to use it? Then we can all ask our "Are you [firstname lastname]?" questions and end the round.

Never heard of her - she has no Wiki page - and I don't think the Paralympics are the Olympics.

A very interesting choice. To me, Olympic athletes and Paralympic athletes are two different things, but if you'd said she wasn't an Olympic athlete, I don't think I would have got to Paralympic without having exhausted every other athletic endeavour down to Parkour, Cricket and Lacrosse. Quite a challenge that reveals much about my preconceptions.
On to the next round? Let's go!!

DQ answer #10 was "Olympian," not "Paralympian." Anyway.
Since it's almost October, etv, you might want to wait until Mon. to start the next thread.
