Not that I wish to be a pedant. But by Elzabethan era do you mean strictly the period 1558 -1603, or do you mean the Tudor period as a whole?

Anytime you preface anything you say with that phrase, you automatically put yourself into the pedant role. You are a dirty pedant. Pedant.

I'm sorry to say that my knowledge of Elizabeth Taylor isn't too great. I wonder if we could get questions on Elizabeth Shue instead! Or Elizabeth Perkins!

At first, I had the questions focused mainly on her time rule alone, but I went back through them and redid the questions so that they are a bit more even.
So, as of now, it will be the Tudor period as a whole.
I also took some of the questions out and added more from other periods of history.
The time period most questioned are the aforementioned, however.

And g, I fixed it.
tired, sorry.

Whoa, I totally don't remember posting in this thread. Last night seems like such a wash for me. Perhaps I'll make it to the trivia. Hopefully, I won't be all gone like I have been recently.

Im telling you right now that this wont be an easy trivia.
I threw in a few gratuitous questions to even it out some, but overall, this will be harder than the average trivia.
