Did someone guess Michel de Montaigne, or was he eliminated with the essays question?

[korais666]

Heh, I asked a question on page 2 and forgot to confirm the answer/ask a new one.

Stumper: Do you keep a .44 magnum under your pillow, and talk about it in a recent (and well known) documentary about guns and gun violence?

Korias666: Michael Moore

See, this was intended to trick you. Michael Moore MADE the documentary, but the guy who was talking about having a .44 magnum under his pillow in the movie was Jame McVeigh, brother of Timothy McVeigh, who was convicted and executed for the famous bombing (which was also talked about in the movie.

So . I tricked you .

However, it seems everyone is on the right track, and I don't know who it is, so I'm gonna hold off the general question.

[Leonidas]

Quailman: Montaigne is eliminated, (Essays question), but I think I have it !

Stumper: Are you the Leader of the Templiers Order - one executed by a French king because that king wanted the wealth of your order ?

[Leonidas]

(I think it was that bastard Philippe IV Le Bel - another bad French king)

[bigbenwd]

are you joan of arc?

[Cadmium]

Are you the Leader of the Templiers Order - one executed by a French king because that king wanted the wealth of your order?

Yes, I'm Jacques de Molay, the last Grandmaster of the Knights Templar who was executed by Phillip le Belle, the father of his Godson.

So, how did you figure that out, Leo?

[Leonidas]

Well - being French helped a lot...

Actually, I thought of Jacques de Molay shortly after the discussion with DP about French popes. I was looking for someone with a role in politics, and also in religion.... which led to Jacques. Great game, Cadmium - thanks !

[Cadmium]

Aha . Well done!

At first, I wanted to use Hughes de Payens, the first Grandmaster of the Knights Templar, but I figured that would be even harder to guess.

Phillip le Belle was a bastard indeed! Thanks to him a lot of people became superstitious of friday the 13th. That's the day all the Knights Templar were arrested. I once posted something about this here (DP's reaction keeps making me laugh ).
