Name The Ten Trivia Contest: Round 8

Post by harrumph »

There will be a potpourri Rounds 11 and 12 that will diverge somewhat from the name ten format. Plenty of bonus points will be available for a potential comeback win for those trailing.

One point for each correct answer. You are limited to ten responses per question, unless the question stipulates a different number. For questions with bonus points, you will receive ten points for your first ten correct responses but no bonus points if any of your subsequent responses is incorrect.

This round contains six questions.

Round 8

Name the ten deadliest battles of the US Civil War in terms of casualties.

Name ten jazz guitarists.

Name the seven main bones of your arms and legs.

Name ten female US state governors who served at any time (one bonus point for each additional five named; 15 = 11 points, 20 = 12 points, etc).

Name ten commissioners of Major League Baseball.

Name ten tragedies by William Shakespeare.
