I think it's time for our first bonus question!

Bonus Question #1: What is the proper name of FOP syndrome, also known as the Stoneman Disease, which causes fibrous tissue to be gradually replaced with bone?

All right, I guess since nobody has answered the bonus question, I'll post the next regular one later today. Maybe it was a bit too difficult...? My apologies.

Well, nobody answered the bonus question, so I'll just move on. You can still answer the bonus question too, though.

Question #14: Throughout the history of cinema, only three films have won as many as 11 Academy Awards (or Oscars). Name two of them.

It seems there's no answers at all... I'll probably change the question again in a couple of hours. My apologies.

I just don't know the answers and I refuse to look them up

That's just playing by the rules It's just sometimes hard to estimate what to consider a difficult question.

In any case,
Question #15: Which actor played the character Frodo Baggins in the Lord of the Rings film trilogy (2001-2003)?

Elijah Wood?

Absolutely right.

Question #17: What does the word "onomatopoeia" mean?

Ehh if I have this right, it’s supposed to be the sound effect that accompanies a word it follows (like a duck would have the onomatopoeia “quack”)

Not sure if it makes sense but...

It's a word that sounds like what it means.

The Jonster's answer was pretty close and it may even have been correct, but I'm not completely sure what he meant. An onomatopoeia is not necessarily a sound effect or tied into another word; as PluMGMK said, it's a word that sounds like what it means (to use Jonster's example, "quacking" sounds like the action itself, although it's not a sound effect in itself). Thus, I'd say that PluMGMK's answer is correct. Sorry if that was exactly what you meant, Jonster.

Question #18: What does the abbreviation P.S. written at the end of a letter stand for, and what do these words mean?

Post Scriptum, it's an addition to the letter that comes after the main writing.

Oh, sorry, I meant the literal meaning of those two words translated, but my bad... This is what you get for writing down questions in a high fever Anyway, I consider your answer correct.

Question #19: What was the capital of Italy in the years prior to the capture of Rome in 1870?

Hmmm... Napoli?

Unfortunately not. It's in northern Italy.

EDIT: You may reanswer if you so wish. If there's no new answers in a day or so, I guess I'll have to change the question once again.

Florence? I dunno if that's north.
