Trivial Pursuit 2.0 [ETA: Max players reached.]

[5 time champ]

Rules, in case you are new to this: DON'T READ THE THREAD BEFORE YOU POST!

If no one else wants to host one, here goes.

Post your responses to the questions. I’ll take the first 50. I will tabulate the results, declare the winner, post the scoreboard. There are 10 questions and a maximum of 1000 possible points.

And in deference to Hostile Dialect, no questions about music that sny of us may have listened to in high school.

A quick reminder the object of the game is to give an answer that you think will match the most number of other Doper's answers.

Format for your answers: You don't need to repeat the questions, but please number the answers.

If you don't know an answer, guess! If you pass, you're guaranteed to get zero points -- but if you guess and someone else matches your answer, you'll get points, whether the answer is "right" or not!

No, the commentaries don't count towards the 50. It is 50 accepted entries- not sure what to do about wendingo1970's since it appears to be an exact copy & paste of mine.
