I can't find the original post, but someone proposed this game several weeks ago: http://barelybad.com/20_questions.htm Let's play! In addition to the rules on the linked page, I propose we conduct ourselves as follows: 1. The game will be played in rounds. 2. The questioner who guesses the target with the 20th or earlier question wins the round and the right to start the next round as answerer, or pass the right to someone else. 3. If the target has not been guessed by the 20th question, the answerer wins the round and may start a new round continuing as answerer or pass the right to someone else. 4. Questions will be numbered accoring to the order they appear as response items. Questions posted before a previous question has been answered will be ignored. 5. Any Grex member may join the game as a questioner at any time. ***** ROUND 1 ***** Answerer: papa
222 responses total.
