Uh. I believe we just wasted a question.
No we did not.

Rule II says we did, or I’m reading it wrong.

Octavious has amended Rule II in a stupid way. I am not counting that as a question.

Whether or not you would count it as a question is irrelevant. Strict adherence to the rules is a requirement in all games. However, after reviewing the rule book, and in accordance with rule XI, the consequence of a loss of a question as permitted by the JECE rule (correctly known as rule II) has been waived.

Jamie is welcome to challenge this ruling if he wishes

As the question master I don't think you should be actively trying to cause confusion.
As a competitive player, I congratulate you on your efforts to cause confusion amongst your rivals :-)

I'm going to make a correction regarding person B. It turns out that he did have some involvement in religion or philosophy at some stage in his life. It is most certainly not what he is known for, however.

An additional question will be awarded to the inquisitors by way of apology

Can I get an extra free guess for pointing out the misspelling of 'fourth' as 'forth'?
