Well, I am a Teen Titan from Spartanburg, SC. I enjoy singing, watching game shows, playing Bingo, listen to news themes, and listen to 80s music. I even have the Titans rooting for me as well as Princess Celestia out in the audience. I wish my opponent nothing but the best of luck.

 Here is the first of three questions! It is a political pamphlet written by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, originally published in London in 1848. The text is the first and most systematic attempt by Marx and Engels to codify for wide consumption the historical materialist idea that "the history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles", in which social classes are defined by the relationship of people to the means of production. For the first of three questions, what is this book? |

One down, two to go!
He was an Italian astronomer, physicist and engineer, sometimes described as a polymath. He was born in the city of Pisa, then part of the Duchy of Florence. He has been called the father of observational astronomy, modern-era classical physics, the scientific method, and modern science. He studied speed and velocity, gravity and free fall, the principle of relativity, inertia, projectile motion and also worked in applied science and technology, describing the properties of the pendulum and "hydrostatic balances".
For the second question, who is he?

Last question to complete the category!
This word derives indirectly from the Latin for cow, vacca. The story goes that, just before the turn of the 19th century, a British doctor named Edward Jenner observed that milkmaids who had contracted cowpox, or variolae vaccinae, were much less likely to contract smallpox, which could otherwise devastate entire communities. Jenner decided to introduce the pus from a woman’s cowpox lesion into a cut he made on an 8-year-old boy’s arm.
To complete the category, what is this word?

 President of the United States Richard Nixon visited Beijing, capital of the People's Republic of China (PRC) in the culmination of his administration's efforts to establish relations with the PRC after years of U.S. diplomatic policy that favored the Republic of China in Taiwan. His visit was the first time a U.S. president had visited the PRC, with his arrival ending 25 years of no official diplomatic ties between the two countries. For $200, what year did this occur? |

 If you answer correctly, you will have $500 and a possible game one win! Do bear in mind, Agnieszka does get a final turn! The word is a variant, meaning a “ball of thread or yarn,” according to Merriam-Webster. It comes to us from Middle and Old English, and the ball of yarn in question is a handy method for finding your way out of a labyrinth, as Greek mythology’s Theseus did after killing the Minotaur. For a total of $500 and a possible win, what is this word? |

Not wasting any time and going for the possible tie in the match!
I will ask you one question at a time and the more you answer, the higher the chance of completing that bid! Should you miss and George completes the bid, he becomes the new champion!
Here is your first question!]
The 12th century legends associated with King Arthur depict this area as the seat of King Arthur. This was a mighty strong castle that served as the court of the king. It was surrounded by scenic forests and plains. It was also home to a magnificent cathedral. King Arthur and his famous Knights of the Round Table came together at this castle.
For $100, what was this castle?
