Thanks for the game, Frank! --Bob

Despite the confusion, I hope people enjoyed it. I certainly had fun putting it together. There were a lot of leftover Johns I didn't use, but I want to stick with less obscure characters, and avoid more than one person included for the same character.

I wanted to include Claude Rains as Sir John Talbot in The Wolf Man, but he was also Prince John in The Adventures of Robin Hood, and I had to avoid that movie because I needed Errol Flynn for Santa Fe Trail.

Lots of fun. It seems like forever since I've figured out a Tangredi and it'll have to wait a little longer. I hope it's not too long, though.

Thanks again, Frank!

Yes, thanks - it was a really fun quiz.

I'm working on a quiz as well and hopefully it will be ready by the beginning of February...

I helped! This was a first for me, where I got a clue before anybody else.

Oh, it won't be. I've got half a dozen ideas cooking.

I still have one Tangredi puzzle that I've been working on since last year (have all of the answers and pairings, just need to write the clues)... but I'm saving that for much later. Especially after I bombarded everybody with my fiendish QoD Challenge. :D Plus, I've been busy writing my novel. (I'm up to 130 pages now.) I'm also putting together a multi-part YouTube video series, where I count down my 35 favorite songs from each year between 1970-99. So, yeah... I'm doing at least four different things at once right now. :D
