Boromir's guess the famous game #53 winner nyctc7 Ross Perot was the answer


1. I'm thinking of some famous person, it ocan be a film actor, a philosopher, a president, a prime minister, a singer, fictional character, mafia man etc.
2. You need to ask me a yes or no question about this person, for example, "Is the person still alive?," "Does the person work in the entertainment industry?," any question you can think of that helps you to reveal the answer. The host answers with yes or no only.
3. Maximum 1 question and 1 guess per player per answer.
4. The winner can either start a new game or say "pass." In case of a pass, the OP gets to start another.

a political commentator?

reply

I will go with YES on this one

reply

Either my math is off or 13 and 15 are incompatible

reply

You right 13 should be yes

reply

Fixed it must have read it wrong sorry

reply

maybe my math are wrong.
you fixed but I am not understand why 13 and 15 are incompatible for the first place.
someone can born before 1900 and died after.

reply

Original:
Was he born after 1899? NO
Died before 1970? NO

If someone was NOT born after 1899 then they MUST have died before 1970

reply

"If someone was NOT born after 1899 then they MUST have died before 1970"

what about someone who born in 1898 and died in 1971?

reply

"Was he born after 1899?"

I think you confuse between alive and born.

reply

You are right too. But I did make a mistake. I will give a hint birth year is 1930

reply

Put that on the board to be fair to all
