Twenty Questions Reference Thread

[Celalta]

Assuming someone links the new thread in the old thread, you just need to open the new thread and then at the bottom of the new thread (because you may not have posted in it yet), change the bell clicky from Normal to Tracking, and then new replies will show up in your unread bucket, even if you haven’t posted in it.

Never knew that existed, thanks!

Ok, fair enough.

So how does this work now? Do we keep this going?

Should I pick something and y’all ask me 20 questions about it?

(At least that’s how we played in my family: whomever guessed correctly was “it” in the next round… but I’m not married to that method. We could go with whomever had the most “yes” responses.)

ETA: Although “most yes responses” is a tie between John S Mill and A_Student.

The one who makes the correct guess and the one(s) with the most “no” answers have a jello-wrestling match to decide who goes next.

FTR, one can gain a lot of information from a “no” question as much as by a “yes” question.

Often more. A good “no” can snap you out of any tunnel vision you may be experiencing.

It gets annoying if all of the answers are “no”, though…
