I'm thinking of some famous figure, it can be a philosopher, politician, entertainer, scientist, fictional character, criminal, animal, being, etc.
1. 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.
2. Maximum 1 question and 2 guesses per player per answer.
3. The winner can either start a new game or say "pass." In case of a pass, the OP gets to start another.
4. Can't edit a question or guess once posted. Delete ONLY.

[–] Carrot (1726) 3 years ago

Claus Von Bulow?

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

I assumed Q 16 would be yes.

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

Sunny wasn't dead at the time, it was attempted murder charges.
I tried to nudge you, by saying "Nooo" like that.
Tricky.

[–] nyctc7 (44120) 3 years ago

Regardless, Reversal of Fortune is a great movie

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

now i get it 😊😊

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

I hinted at you with Q 11 as well.
😊

Do you think he was guilty?

Always an interesting voice willing to dish the dirt.

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

he certainly looked guilty. the case down to a battle of the medical experts.

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

Weird guy.
And I just saw he does actually have a MC page.

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

She wasn't dead. Not until 2008.

[–] nyctc7 (44120) 3 years ago

True, but I think it would have been sporting to be a little more clear than Nooo

Edit: If hownos is ok with it, then I am too. (see above)

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

How?
What would you have done?
Q 11 was a big hint, at least I thought so.

[–] nyctc7 (44120) 3 years ago

I took Nooo to mean "definitely no" not "no, but..."

Not sure what i would have done instead.

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

That had not occurred to me.

Tone is lost on the interwebs sometimes.

Good food for thought, thank you.

[–] tcrum (31863) 3 years ago

I like the answers that are a little vague, or up for debate, where you have to interpret what the clue giver is thinking. It makes the game more interesting.

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

I think that's why a lot of famous people are famous and intriguing to begin with. They don't fit in boxes so neatly.

[–] tcrum (31863) 3 years ago

These guys jumped on my game for a similar question...Crime fighter.

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

I dont mind a bit of lively discussion after a game.
I dont play with the intention of being deceptive or making the game more difficult. I'm on the players side.

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

You are the Winner!!

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

16 should be Yes.

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

She didnt die until 2008.
