Dunno about the first and third, but no, I’m not Phineas Fogg. Two DQs.
F.
IQ1: Did you once fire Brian Eno, saying “There’s only room for one non-musician in this band, and I’m it!”
IQ2: Are you the only person who has been in every incarnation of the band ‘King Crimson’?
IQ3: Are you most famous for your long-term collaboration with Walter Becker?
Correct on Fogg.
IQ1 was looking for Frank Hardy, of the Hardy Boys mysteries.
IQ3 was looking for Giles French, better known as Mr. French; who was the butler to “Uncle Bill” Davis, on the TV show “Family Affair.”
DQ: Does your first name start with F?
DQ: While the time setting for your character is prior to 1900, was the literature first published after 1900?
Were you a Jewish “merry old gentleman”?
IQ1: Did the news used to report periodically that you’re still dead?
IQ2: Are you a fastidious gentleman having some issues with your domestic situation?
IQ3: Did you mistakenly name yourself after a car?
Dunno the first two, but no, I’m not Donald Fagen (sp?) of Steely Dan. Two DQs.
You got me on this. Take a DQ.
I’m not Generalissimo Francisco Franco (thanks, Chevy), Felix Unger, or Edsel Ford (vice versa as to the naming, right?).
Please note, below, the slight clarification as to answer #14.
F.
Right on Franco and Unger, but I didn’t mistype the third question - in Hitchiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, the alien Ford Prefect named himself after a car (the Prefect was a model sold in Britain) because he mistakenly thought that cars were the dominant species on Earth.
DQ: Was the work of literature in which you first appeared published after 1800?
DQ:Has your character’s actor won an award? (BTW I was refering to a Dicken’s character in my IQ)
Quite right on Donald Fagen.
#1. is Bryan Ferry, founding member of Roxy Music. Eno was a member of the band for the first album, and was fired midway through the second. They had never been a particularly good fit to begin with…
#2. is Robert Fripp, founding member of King Crimson and its de facto leader. For many people, he is the essence of King Crimson…
DQ1: Is this character British?
DQ2: Were these works published before 1800?
etv, which Dickens character did you have in mind?
Le Ministre, since your second DQ was almost identical to Enginerd’s, would you like to rephrase, or ask another?
F.
I was going for Fagin
Which brings up a question: are questioners allowed to do research, to formulate IQs?
No. With the power of the internet, you could discover impossible to guess minutiae about otherwise famous people, or research names that are too obscure for the ‘as famous as Botticelli’ rule.
Just what’s in your head, please.
Yes, please.
DQ: Does your author’s last name begin with an initial letter from A - M?
Precisely! Thank you.
F.
Did you miss this? 
Thanks, etv.
F.
Right, that’s 20 DQs. Everyone who’s earned at least one DQ in this round may now ask one “Are you [firstname lastname]?” question by noon EST on Tues. June 5.
[Table Talk]
There are two things bits of information that I wish I had. 1) This character appeared in more than one work of literature, but we don’t know if those works were by the same author and/or published in the author’s lifetime. And 2) we don’t know whether the works of literature were novels or short stories. It is less common for an author to bring back a character in a novel, unless it’s genre fiction…
19th century literature, A-M. Could be Dickens, Austin, James, Elliot, Doyle, Hardy, Kipling, any of the Brontes, and the list could go on. All I really know is that it’s someone from the west side of the library. Who, of any of them, repeated a character? Well, Doyle, of course, but with an ‘F’ first name?
There is also H. Rider Haggard, who wrote series with recurring characters (Allan Quatermain, who first appeared in King Solomon’s Mines, for one), but my knowledge of Haggard’s works isn’t broad enough to know all the characters in them. Still, maybe somebody does.
I’m going to take a wild guess -
DQ: Are you Fezziwig (sp?) from ‘A Christmas Carol’ by Charles Dickens?
I don’t think this can possibly be right, as I think Fezziwig is a last name. I think, though, that he is also in ‘Mr. Timothy’, and I know ‘A Christmas Carol’ has been filmed many times…
No, I’m not Fezziwig. Good guess, though.
