Good Morning!
Recap of Rules and some further thoughts.
Suggestions are always welcome. We can play one way for a while and then change if we'd like.
So far, we have a famous figures initials. Dead, Alive, animal, human, real or fictional.
Ask yes or no questions.
If you are "It", please post the amount of questions to go and what we know after each guess. I think that will make it easier to follow.
Who ever guesses, goes next. If no one guesses, the same person goes again.
We should try to deal with one question at a time, so read along. If we cross post questions, let's not make it a big deal, just answer them together. Let's just try not to cross post.
We can guess without clues and those guesses won't count for the twenty. (If we did that, we'd run out of questions too fast.
Up for debate are clues. This is what we need to work out. We were thinking that clues would be okay at 10 questions to go, but only if one is requested. There are other possibilities on this, let's discuss this, but play the 10 question rule for now. One possibility could be that whoever is it can call certain rules -- I don't know. When I first thought of this, clues never entered my mind.
The endless game seems okay to me too, clues would probably come in handy there.
Hyphenates: Most of the subjects are or were famous for one thing and that's what we'll be dealing with, but sometimes we'll deal with hyphenates. For instance if the person is Woody Allen, and the question is "Is he an actor?" you could answer "YES, that's part of a hyphenate"
(Woody Allen, Actor-Director-Writer). That will elimanate some of the hemming and hawing.
