Of course he’s made up—we're talking about a vampire here 😂—but the legend itself is loosely based on Vlad Tepes, who was actually a real guy.

Look, I had to wait for all the facts to actually line up first... 🤣

Man, and here I was thinking I had my bases covered 🤣

But apparently, there are still plenty of other contenders out there... the mystery goes on 😛


(though you gotta admit, the idea itself is pretty original)

honestly, words are just extra noise 🙏

Austin Alvarez62 said:What happened to you guys the other night? The forum is constantly glitching out. For me, things started going south around 7:00 PM, and it kept kicking me off. I actually had to write some of my replies down on paper.
And sure, I did end up submitting on the very last day right before the deadline—because, let's face it, I don't have much free time when I'm out of the house. And then, naturally, the server dies.

Look, it’s not his fault, and it isn't our fault either. Just bad luck, I guess. If they decide to be reasonable about it, great—that would be fair. If not, it's fine too. Life goes on.👍

Mine started acting up later on—it was working fine until about 8:00 PM, but then everything went sideways. Man, I’d give it until midnight tonight, just let whoever can respond, respond. But like he said, life moves on... I'm sure dragon will figure out a way to make everyone happy...🙂

Justin Fowler5 said:Man, honestly. Like I mentioned before, he basically lost three hours because the site went down right at 9 PM, even though everything had to be submitted by midnight. I’ve just got no clue when the site actually came back online, so I can't say for sure when those three hours happened.

The forum crashed around 8:30 PM—give or take a few minutes—because I could barely even get through the lag to scramble in my last response. So, yeah, there was roughly three and a half hours left on the clock...

Oh, thanks...🙂 (think I'm finally getting it)

I honestly have zero clue what they’re getting at with question 10. Is it an anagram? Some kind of word association thing...? 😢

So, about question 6 — does the Final answer actually have something to do with Nicholson, or is it just some general thing?

Never mind...

6 - Done and dusted

Anthony Smith3 said:Look... if there are 20 total and you snag all 20, you get 3 points. If you find somewhere between 10 and 19, you get half a point.
If you find fewer than 10... you lose a point.
I added this rule because it felt wrong to penalize people for missing just one item when they basically nailed 99% of the list.

I was actually hoping someone would bring this up. Personally, I've messed up that one last detail a few times before, and honestly, it made me want to just stop looking altogether. This is a solid update 👍

Anyway, let's take it easy—we've got until Thursday... 😁

Anthony Smith3 said:True... though, honestly, I didn't really see that coming. But since I don't want a repeat of that mess... like I said... I doubt I'll ever host anything on this topic again...

Actually, that's probably for the best. I feel like even if we did go that route, the topic would be way too narrow—I mean, Jean-Claude Van Damme doesn't exactly have a massive filmography to pull from, so it would just end up being fans bickering with other fans. Jack Nicholson is a much better call (even if I already know how this ends for me 😛) because there's just so much more material to work with...

Anthony Smith3 said:You've got until midnight on Thursday to answer at least a few questions...👍

Doubt it... feels like it'll just be three people playing anyway...

There wasn't even that much left in Machete... 😁

Anthony Smith3 said:Just send everything over. We'll figure out how to fix it later.😉👍

Alright, it's a deal then. 🙂
