Twenty Questions

[Hazelnut]

I have no idea how this will work out on a forum, but one of my favorite pass-times with my kids is playing 20 questions. It costs nothing and is a great brain exerciser.

Someone starts the game by thinking of either a person, place or thing. When they're ready to start the game, that person will ask, "Person, Place, or Thing?"

It's called 20 questions but the way we play is to continue asking questions that can be answered with either a yes or a no until the object has been guessed. If your question is answered with a "yes", you continue asking questions until you get a "no". If your question is answered with a "no", your turn is over.

Does anyone want to play?

[Chorlton]

I prefer playing with myself !

[Hazelnut]

That's cheating Chorlton.

[Raptor Jesus]

Is it a person, place or thing?

[Hazelnut]

@ Triangle

Yes

[WhispersInTheDark]

Could IEF stick his dong in it?

[Hazelnut]

Could IEF stick his dong in it?

Since Triangle forfeited his turn when he could have asked another question I'll answer yours.

No

[Raptor Jesus]

OK damn I mean. Person, place or thing?

[Hazelnut]

@ Triangle

Yes.

It is a person, place or thing.

Which one do you want to narrow it down to?

[Raptor Jesus]

Playing hardball, huh?

Is it a person or place?

[Hazelnut]

LOL, yep.

Answer: No.

[hp]

Doesn't it normally start with a person stating it is one of the three and then people start the questions?

[Raptor Jesus]

OK it's a thing... that saved me a question.

Way to waste a question hp... Jeezzus.

Does it cost less than 100 dollars?

[Hazelnut]

Doesn't it normally start with a person stating it is one of the three and then people start the questions?

Yes. Normally. :D

[Hazelnut]

OK it's a thing... that saved me a question.

Way to waste a question hp... Jeezzus.

Sorry. No.

[Raptor Jesus]

Is it portable (fits in a smallish backpack and weighs less than a kilo?)

[Hazelnut]

Yes

[Raptor Jesus]

What decade did they come into popular use?

[Raptor Jesus]

Oh wait maybe I can't ask that

[Hazelnut]

Oh wait maybe I can't ask that

I can only answer with either a "yes" or "no".

[Raptor Jesus]

Was it in general use before 1970?

[Hazelnut]

Yes

[Raptor Jesus]

Was it in general use before 1900?
