The Quiz Part 15

Greetings, November has rolled around again and that means I’m back once more with the quiz! Last year Joh took 1st place by getting all but one question right while Mark and Aaron came tied in 2nd position by answering 6 questions correctly. I’ve tried to balance out the quiz and appeal to all players with at least one question tailored with them in mind but there are some general, trickier questions in there as well. So have a go and test your wits! Don’t forget to avoid the spoilers below and put your scores in the comments. Good luck!
