There's no opium in the opium picture, either, and yet it's still clear what is meant.

Either October or октябрь. You cant have a hybrid of the two, surely

Finally, a picture of that old man that's actually captioned as "Odin" and not "Gandalf". I've seen it described as being a picture of Gandalf like a dozen times now, including on other quizzes on this site!

I always pictured Odin as a much harsher man. That guy looks rather sweet.

And here I was, about to write a comment saying that he looks like Gandalf.

The key identifying feature is that Odin lacks one eye (that he gave away in exchange for wisdom)

Octavian not acceptable?

That would be m, however Gaius Octavian doesn’t make much sense.

That's happening to me as well. I played a few other quizzes just a few minutes ago and they all worked fine ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I would have done better had I not overlooked the entire bottom line. I do that a lot on these quizzes. You'd think I'd learn eventually.

Made it all the way through this quiz to then realize that I could have gotten more answers correct if I would have read that all answers start with O. Facepalm

For 'assassin,' Lyndon Johnson doesn't begin with 'O.'
