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 refrain from making a new guess until a new question has been answered.

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 an object.

NDN
11-01-2011, 12:23 PM

Being an object that can vary in size and weight, that's a tough question to answer.

I would say it can weight more or less than 400 grams depending on its size.

Yes, I would classify it as a tool of some sort that is used to do something, and arguably a tool used to make something depending on how technical you want to get.

All answers above this post are incorrect! All the extra questions have been ignored as per the rules.

I'll say that this object isn't generally owned by an individual themselves, but if used correctly, it could certainly increase the chances of either an emotional or physical connection!

Ok. Three things.

1 - Is it a foot rest.
2 - Can you post the "things we know so far thing again"
3 - Is this object generally rented, instead of owned?

NDN
11-02-2011, 09:44 PM
A Microphone???

YES! YES! YES! You are correct! And with just minutes to spare (though we would have continued the contest into the next week if needed).

Nice job! Thought this was going to drag on for months!

If anything stuck out that helped you figure this one out, let us know, or let us know if it was just a wild guess!

Read all of my responses. I said it depends on how technical you want to get.

I was thinking of a singing microphone, but you could argue there are microphones virtually everywhere you go (especially if you carry your cell phone with you).

I was very careful to point out in my responses that you could twist this a lot of ways depending on just how technical you wanted to get with it!
