Your pattern of answers is a little confusing, DC. To make clear which IQs you’re answering, we usually reply directly after each person’s post (which you can do with “Reply With Quote”).

Previous IQs:

Did you customarily have a dental exam on a particular day each year? - Dan Quayle, on election days
Did you help James Bond in Jamaica? - Yes, Quarrel, in Doctor No
Did you tell someone, “This goo is you”? - The near-omnipotent alien Q said this to Picard in the last ST:TNG episode, after taking him back in time and showing him the primordial soup of what would become life on Earth

American?
Would be alive today, if real?

Are you mayor of Springfield in a fictitious state?
Did you write lots of mystery stories?
Are you better known as Green Arrow?

Sorry, sometimes I get lazy on my tablet and just use quick reply for ease. Will bear in mind should I host another round in future.

Anyway, it doesn’t matter for now, as KO has it - I am Quetzalcoatl, Aztec God of awesome. I hope there are no devout Aztecs reading who are offended by my assertion that he is not real. Well played, KO.

Of the remaining IQs, I am not Mayor Quimby, but I couldn’t recall the others.

Well done, KO!
