You're the master of the half point! More information, please [/Alex Trebek voice]

Which brings us to:

poohbear- 7 points
doubleshuffle - 3 points
orlok - 1 point

What's left:

4. Mars' anthem
6. Berlin number
8. Kings and Queens are two of them
10. Cavan, Donegal and Monaghan (half a point to poohbear for counties in Ulster).
12. Cherokee stylist
14. Blood bath junkie
16. Parish (half a point to poohbear for county).

I'm declaring poohbear the winner. I'll clue the remaining by saying that Mars and Berlin are people and Kings and Queens and Cherokee are not. I'll give the answers laer, but it's back to poohbear to set the next quiz.
