These questions were written to be asked in Toronto on 2007-03-05,
and should be interpreted accordingly. All questions were written
by members of the Usual Suspects, but have been reformatted and
may have been retyped and/or edited by me. I will reveal the
correct answers in about 3 days.

For further information, including an explanation of the """
notation that may appear in these rounds, see my 2020-06-23
companion posting on "Reposted Questions from the Canadian
Inquisition (RQFTCI*)".


I did not write either of these rounds.


* Game 7, Round 2 - Arts - Women Painters

This round has a 3-page handout. (Sorry, but the image quality
isn't the greatest: the online original version of it was lost
and I recreated it by scanning one of the printed copies.)

http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/msb/7/paint.pdf

We'll give you the name of a painter; you identify her work by
giving the number from one of the handout pages. All of them
are women.

1. Emily Carr.
2. Mary Cassatt.
3. Artemisia Gentileschi.
4. Judith Leyster.
5. Frida Kahlo.
6. Georgia O'Keefe.
7. Berthe Morisot.
8. Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun.
9. Anna Mary "Grandma" Moses.
10. Mary Pratt.

So there were 10 decoys. Decode the rot13 if you'd like to see
the picture numbers and identify those painters for fun, but for
no points.

11. Cvpgher ryrira.
12. Cvpgher svsgrra.
13. Cvpgher svir.
14. Cvpgher sbhe.
15. Cvpgher friragrra.
16. Cvpgher fvk.
17. Cvpgher fvkgrra.
18. Cvpgher gra.
19. Cvpgher guvegrra.
20. Cvpgher gjragl.


* Game 7, Round 3 - Entertainment - TV Casts

In this round, you'll be given some of the cast members of a
"""currently"""-running TV show. You name the show. *Note*,
we won't always be giving you the top-billed stars.

1. Lisa Edelstein, Omar Epps, Jennifer Morrison, Robert Sean
Leonard.

2. Rob Morrow, David Krumholtz, Judd Hirsch, Peter MacNicol.

3. Gabrielle Miller, Lorne Cardinal, Eric Peterson.

4. Robb Wells, John Paul Tremblay, Mike Smith.

5. James Woods, Jeri Ryan, Danielle Panabaker.

6. America Ferrera, Eric Mabius, Vanessa Williams.

7. Katherine Heigl, Kate Walsh, T.R. Knight, Isaiah Washington.

8. Naveen Andrews, Jorge Garcia, Matthew Fox, Emilie de Ravin.

9. Edward James Olmos, Mary McDonnell, Tricia Helfer, Katee
Sackhoff.

10. William Roache, Betty Driver, Barbara Knox, Eileen Derbyshire.
