I’ll put some questions together for the next one if no-one else volunteers
see? that wasn’t so hard.
I’ll be away from the 'puter for a few hours, so keep having fun. But I only need 6 more contestants to score. Those answering after that, you’ll at least be able to see how yours stack up, popularity-wise.
This one was more difficult than the others. In some cases I was guessing answers that I don’t know are even correct much less popular.
I got a PM from RickJay saying he wanted to go next after mine, but haven’t seen him around.
He played this one near the top of page 1 - I’d posted my intent and he did not object. This just gives him more time to create questions.

Thanks for playing. See you next round.
41! I’m doing worse!
Maybe there is a curse on people who host this game. And now it’s coming for you anyrose!
The best part is that I’m always ranked pretty high in the alphabetical list. 
When I loaded the thread, I thought I came in last.
