No outside sources allowed. Just take your best guess.

1. What U.S. state has Quaboag Pond, Lake Quannapowitt, Lake Quinsigamond, and Quabbin Reservoir?

I'll guess Maine.

2. Vidkun Quisling was the Minister-President of what country?

I'll guess Kazbekistan.

3. The quetzal is the national bird and also the name of the currency in what Central American country?

It's not Costa Rica nor Mexico. Pretty sure it's not Panama or Belize. What the heck's that leave. I'll guess Honduras.

4. What video game had characters such as Coily, Ugg, Wrong-Way, Slick, and Sam along with the title character?

OK, the name has to start with a Q since the clues don't. Quake's the only Q game I can think of -- I guess I need more 12-year-old friends. But that's not a character. That's my guess anyway.
