Macchu Pichu?

Aren't you supposed to give the answer after 3 failed guesses? Weren't the rules like that?

 

[Sedwick]

I'm going by rule #14:

You can post as many clues as you want, but don't keep the guessers waiting

Unless you don't want another chance?

Rule 14 does say that, sorry.

I'm running in circles here.
Augustus?
Caesar?

Just in case that's wrong again here's a simple one of mine:
A Top 10 ranked WTA player's first name - cannot get easier than that.

Let's unleash The Decider:

1. Spaghetti
2. Old
3. God
4. "Stately"
5. Pope

 

[Acken]

Vatican

 

[reddishrecue]

Papal primacy

 

[IkM]

It's church.

 

[AuganM]

Is it the Holy Roman Empire?

 

[Sedwick]

[The] Vatican

CORRECT!

Also would have accepted "Vatican City".

Astute viewers will recall the Carol Burnett and Friends sketch “Celebrities and Peasants”, where Burnett plays a librarian who's paired with a vapid bimbo movie star. Each must give the other clues, Password-style, and the celebrity character couldn't get George Washington after being given “president”, “America”, and “first”. The celebrity feeds Burnett's character the first 3 clues I gave for this round, thinking she was supposed to play against Burnett. ("Spaghetti's Italian, The Vatican's in Italy, ...") The sketch ends with the losing Burnett loudly fuming, “'Spaghetti' for 'The VATICAN?!'”

I just wanted to see if you all could outsmart Burnett's librarian! To be fair, though, she had less than 3 minutes...

Fire away, Acken!

I have to admit.... that's pretty funny.
