I gave people a sufficient amount of time to get their talents in, so those who didn't are out now, because we have to go on.
Here is the site with all of the talent entrances for the other judges and for those who want to see them: http://usm.homestead.com/talents.html

It's getting smaller. Now, these next parts as I said will test brains, but we have more than one section because some people have weaknesses in certain spots. This first one is one I myself would be sweating about, but I ended up working on this trivia first. I have all the answers written down, so I'll be able to grade it easily without much help.
I ask that you DO NOT CHEAT. Just answer the best you can. If you don't know it, don't leave it blank. Give any answer you can think of. It might be right. Answer in AUTHOR ONLY, as I will mention in every trivia part. We don't want others seeing your answers and getting a better score by cheating.
It's 20 questions, 5 points per question. Don't sweat it. I'd fail this one if it were me since history isn't my thing. I'll give hints on certain ones, and maybe put in some multiple choice just to make it a bit easier.
Good luck!
