Hi! This is a peehs. The goal is to submit correct answers that the fewest other people also submit. Incorrects will score 1.5x the most popular answer. Let me know if you need any additional explanation.

NO RESEARCH

1. A U.S. state admitted after the original thirteen but before the Civil War (23)

2. A UK prime minister from the 20th or 21st century (looks like about 24?)

3. One of the Allied Powers in WWI (specifically, an entity listed as a principal power, affiliated state combatant, or co-belligerent on the “Allies of WWI” Wikipedia page) (16)

4. One of the Central Powers in WWI (specifically, an entity listed as a combatant, co-belligerent, or client state on the “Central Powers” Wikipedia page) (23)

5. An actor who has portrayed the Doctor on the television program Doctor Who (don't get too clever about this; I count 17 valid answers on the Wikipedia page)

6. An actor who is credited in appearing in any of the films in the Back to the Future trilogy, the Bill and Ted trilogy, or the first three films in the Terminator series (loads!)

7. An artist who spent at least nine weeks at the top of the Billboard Music charts in the 1970s (12)

8. A country/nation-state from the 20th century that no longer formally exists, at least by that name (I know it when I see it; let me know if this needs elaboration)

9. An original inductee into the Baseball Hall of Fame - i.e., class of 1939 or earlier (26)

10. A feature film nominated for Best Picture in the 1950s or 1960s (many)

PLUS!

This is also the first event for the upcoming Time Travel Mishmash, in which the players are part of an elite time force racing from era to era to prevent damage to the space-time continuum. It's important to know details about the eras you visit so you can blend in and make appropriate conversation with the people of that time while you search for evildoers -- hence, this preliminary exam.

Everyone can enter this peehs, whether or not you are playing the mishmash! The player from the mishmash with the best total score will earn an additional, game-related prize. Heck, second place too.

good luck have fun and submit an unspaced, unnumbered list to me at this account plzkthx

REMEMBER NO RESEARCH

I didn't make it clear in the OP, but if you're entering this peehs and haven't signed up for the mishmash, please consider signing up for the mishmash! It needs players

Yes, mishmashy werewolfy time-bendingly goodness, but the mechanics are not crazy complex (just posted a thread about them!) and it'll be possible to have a great time even if you can't devote a ton of time to it each day, as long as you enjoy werewolf and are willing to engage with your role

I'll be getting up at 3:30 am every day to process night actions because I'll be on the West Coast but your own time commitment can be much much less

I could probably do with a clarification on number 8. Is that just any state that disbanded in the 20th century, irrespective of when it was formed. Or is it state that existed in the 20th century but disbanded afterwards in the 21st century. or did the state have to be in existence for the entirety of the 20th century ?

Or maybe I'm thinking about this too much lol

it doesn't matter when it was formed or when it was disbanded/renamed, as long as it existed under one name in the 20th century and either no longer exists or exists under a different name today

if that makes it clearer

Yeah that'll do. I think my answer is right. It was the first one that came to mind lol

more submissions please!

i'd like to get to at least 20, and i'm about ~7 away from that now

don't worry about your answers being wrong; that's part of the fun!
