20 Questions - Round 19

#1 Post by Jamiet99uk » Wed Jun 22, 2022 6:49 pm

Rules:
1. Only yes/no questions may be asked.
2. If the answer is unclear, question master must clarify why.
3. One guess per person does not count against the total, but additional guesses by the same person do. After all 20 questions are up, three total guesses are allowed.
4. Please choose people from history, or movie/TV/literary/video game chars/etc. characters that, if you were to throw a dart out the window, at least 50% of people hit would know this character.
5. Whomever guesses correctly takes over from the previous question master. If they do not want to do it, they may choose who to pass the duty onto or just give it to the first volunteer.
6. If the question master remains undefeated three times in a row, on the third time they must either pass it to a person of their choice, or the first volunteer takes over.

Game starts!

If the person is not alive, is the person fictional? If the person is alive, then I assume we can ignore this question.

I'll rephrase:

Is she known for her connection to government and/or politics?

The first question was clear enough, Dougbert.

He's my great great great (and so on and so forth) grandfather, and after discussions back in the early games that he's the chap I'd have picked if I hadn't already mentioned him I've become paranoid that he'll turn up just to spite me. It also makes me less likely to accidentally end up as the winner as happened with Gandhi
