My internet connection's been a bit spotty tonight, so sorry for the delay in answering questions.

For #2, I'm going for exactly the number 7 (no 77's, sorry).

As for a fermion, it's a type or category of particle, and I'd like a specific example of one.

I'll update the entrants list soon, hopefully tomorrow.

I'm in! So if anybody is hesitant about entering for the fear of finishing last, no need to worry about that anymore.
And these are not empty words, as I demonstrated in TD 184 :lol:

I'm positive the definition of a fermion won't help anyone who doesn't already know what a fermion is. An example of a fermion would be a give-away, but the definition is so arcane it wouldn't help anyone without a physical science background.

Definition:
Spoiler
A fermion is a particle with non-integer spin (spin 1/2)

I'm working on inputting the entries. Also, the fermion question refers to elementary fermions.

How many points are the bonus questions worth?

Bonus questions are each worth a one-point reduction in total score with no penalty for wrong guesses.

For question 12: these people could have been governors or in congress at any point in their careers, before or after serving in the Bush/Obama cabinet, correct?

Yes, the offices (governor/congress/cabinet) can come in any order.
