Each week, I will begin this thread by stating that I am thinking about a specific person, place or thing.

You are then encouraged to reply to this thread with a question that will help you narrow down what I am thinking about.

You may ask as many questions as you'd like, but no one can ask a new question until I have answered the previous one.

Your question must be a "yes or no" question.

If you think you know what I am thinking about, you may reply to this thread at anytime with your guess, but please keep your guesses to a minimum to avoid spamming!

P.S. Although the name of the game is 20 Questions, there will be no limit to the amount of questions that can be asked, but the contest will expire at the end of each week if we do not have a correct answer in time.

The first person to guess correctly will receive a $5 Amazon.com gift card.

This week I am thinking of a celebrity.

You would have to define a "blockbuster hit actor" before I could answer that correctly....

NDN
09-15-2011, 10:27 AM

Nope. Not Clint.

The leading man in movies that were a huge success?

Ringo
09-15-2011, 01:59 PM
Did he act in any movies in the 60's?

NDN
09-15-2011, 03:03 PM

I do not believe so.

NDN
09-15-2011, 03:04 PM
The leading man in movies that were a huge success?

I would say no to this (again, it's hard to define a huge success).

NDN
09-15-2011, 03:05 PM
Did he act in any movies in the 60's?

Nope. And technically, you asked this while another question was still pending!

eejit101

Are you famous for being a comedy actor.

NDN
09-15-2011, 09:14 PM

I would say so. But you guys really aren't doing yourself any favors by asking questions where the answers are largely based on my opinions.

Try to focus on fact based questions and not opinion based question!

OOOH. Good guess, Slotnut. I realize I'm posting before you've answered Slotnut, but I'm not asking a question. I'm making a guess. What's the ruling on that? Am I still supposed to wait?

Btw if it's not R. Williams. how about Steve Bushcette. However you spell it. The guy from Fargo, ConAir, Resevior Dogs, etc. etc.

You can guess as often as you'd like (be reasonable about it though). Guesses do not count as questions.

You may only ask a question if there are no questions awaiting an answer.

Neither Robin Williams or Steve Buscemi are correct.

There is still a lot of narrowing down to do, so please ask some questions that will help narrow things down!

Will Ferrell

Ringo
09-16-2011, 06:20 AM

Ringo

Does he smoke cigars?

and is anyone else playing that can ask better questions?

eejit101
09-16-2011, 12:58 PM
first, yes me! Simple questions work best.

How the hell does cigars narrow it down? If i say yes, youll obviously have one person in mind.

Rather than single everyone out, do what i did last week, and narrow it down % by %. I went from anyone, to male, to golf, to major winner, to australian, to Greg Norman!!

You are going on about hair colour and cigars man!!!!

eejit101
