I was quoting you, you said (I don't look on Wikipedia for my questions) Wilhelm Ritter von Leeb said that, simply to state that he didn't use Wikipedia. I think he mentioned this because well, for many different reasons. It could mean that his question was accurate. Or something totally different. But whatever the case, I don't think in any way that he was directly accusing you for it. If he did, I think he would already have stated it. What would be gained from accusing someone on a forum over a game? Tbh, this game is more than just a test of knowledge, but also a test of honesty, since nothing much can be gained out of cheating in this game. Anyone can cheat and lie, but what is to be gained out of it? Just my thoughts on the situation. Not trying to worsen anything or encourage anything negative.

New question The name of the last emperor of the Persian empire, before it was conquered by Alexander the Great. Is he present at Gaugamela? I remembered his name starts with "D". Is this correct?

That hint helped me. Darius, or maybe Darius II?

Awesome! Now for the next question:
A friend of an English king who held a powerful position in the church. He was murdered, but became a saint after his death.

Hmm, then I have no choice. 3 guesses: Saint Patrick (I'm not 100% certain on which spelling of Patrick is right), Saint John, Saint George. Edit: I checked out <Union Jack> on Wiki, it seems that I accidentally replaced Saint Andrews (of the Scottish flag) with Saint John. Forgive me, Scotland! Nonetheless, my 3 guesses remain & are not changed by my Wiki search.

No, to all three. However, that's good to know what the crosses mean!

I suppose I should throw out a new question, or give some more hints. Here's a hint: this man's friend and monarch was one of the Henrys, and father of Richard the Lionheart (famous for the Crusades) and King John (infamous for singing the Magna Carta). His reign, which was quite successful, was spoiled by the murder of this man.
I hope this helps rather than making the question more confusing!
