Correct!
That's either a halberd or a poleaxe, depending on who is doing the classification.
Who has "... a degree in economics, math, physics and bionics." ?

What will she do?
Note: For my song lyric questions, the correct answer will always be a song title.

I know the answer to this question, but I'm disqualifying myself, because of my cheating incident in the Tyler Rogers sports trivia fiasco. I take full responsibility.

@Trevor Wong: FYI: for MY questions in the three current Trivia threads, all questions are 'active' for a minimum of two weeks, or until answered correctly. After two weeks, I may or may not claim a Stump point soon after.
There are literally hundreds of older questions which are still active, sometimes years after the original question post. Since the purpose of the Trivia threads is to generate the maximum number of page views, I invite you to scroll through the back pages of any/all of the three threads, and scoop some additional points.
Scoring for MY questions: 2 Points for each Correct!, (and some questions have multiple possible corrects). There is no penalty for a Nope or a Too Slow. I get 1 point for every Stump and 1 point for every Too Slow.
MY questions are an individual competition. Questions posted by @unassuming are a group effort, and as far as I know, scoring only counts for bragging rights. @unassuming has no minimum time period before he posts the correct answer, but he often does in the 24 hour range after posting.
Rules for MY questions: You can't answer again after a Red reply in General TV Trivia.
Unless specifically stated in a question post, spelling is not a factor, if the answer would be correct 'if spoken aloud'.
Obvious typographical errors are ignored, (ex: If you had answered THIS question as 'Tube Snake Boggie ').
In all cases, you must quote the original question post, as opposed to quoting a reply - finding the original question post is part of the game. The easy way to find the original question post without scrolling through pages is to scroll backwards through the red handle links in reply posts.
If a player provides an answer which is not close enough to be deemed Correct, but not wrong enough for a Nope, I post a 'Regis', after which anyone can answer with the correct answer, (ex: if your answer to this question had been 'Tube Steak Boogie ').
Every player gets one mulligan for a Rules infraction. Making the same mistake twice earns them 'one and a half lines of Robert De Niro', which has no score attached.

Answers which don't quote a question post are considered to be banter, and I do not acknowledge them.
If I post a question containing multiple images, the question ALWAYS applies to the image directly above the question. The other images are either hints, or they add context to the image above the question post. Understanding a hint pic will often rule out a potential Nope reply. I NEVER insert a random image that has nothing to do with the question post, but the hint pic(s) might not be understood by all players.
For What's his name? / What's her name? questions, if the image is someone in a specific TV or Movie role, I'm looking for the name of the character role, as opposed to the name of the actor/ actress.
If said person appears in the question post in civilian clothing, I'm looking for the person's name. This includes when BOTH a character role image and a civilian pic appear in the same question post. If there is some ambiguity as to which name I'm looking for, the question will be Name the actor/ Name the actress.
Sometimes I post additional hint information in a reply to a Nope answer.
Etiquette: If a question asks for multiple answers, but does not include the text 'Name as many as you can', Don't post an answer if you don't know all of them, (but DO post one or some of the correct answers for questions posted by someone else).
Tip: MY questions are worded very specifically. Always answer them literally, as opposed to 'feeling' them. If you know something about the question, but not what was specifically asked for, posting what you know will can only help your opponents.

No, that's water under the bridge, and I had already quoted your correct answer post.
Thanks for the additional information. Much appreciated. I'm glad you're still letting me participate in the different trivia games, as I really enjoy your questions.
The majority of MY questions are researched in advance. I wouldn't get many of them if the questions were posted by other people.
I pay attention to which players answer lots of questions correctly in specific categories. For example, @anon1 knows a lot about classic automobiles, and @bluebro69 knows a lot about rock bands and 1960's Saturday morning cartoons. In many cases, I'll post increasingly more difficult questions in a specific player's categories of expertise. I particularly enjoy stumping @unassuming with Happy Days and Seinfeld trivia.
For every player who's in the game, there are probably ten other handles who just read the thread without every answering, because they know dick about trivia, but they want to learn new things. Competitions suck if the game is too easy, or if there are no fans watching.
FYI: I use the bold formatting, 22 point size and coloured text ONLY when hosting or replying to question posts.
