20 Questions - Game #49

#1 Post by Hamish » Wed Aug 24, 2022 12:40 pm

RULES!
1. Only yes/no questions may be asked.
2. If the answer is unclear, question master must clarify why.
3. One guess per person does not count against the total, but additional guesses by the same person do. After all 20 questions are up, three total guesses are allowed.
4. Please choose persons real or fictional that are not horribly obscure. No repeats. It will never be Robert the Bruce again.
5. Whoever guesses correctly takes over from the previous question master. If they do not want to do it, they may choose who to pass the duty onto or just give it to the first volunteer.
6. If the question master remains undefeated three times in a row, on the third time they must either pass it to a person of their choice, or the first volunteer takes over.

All set, let's go!

Given the highly skewed interest shown here so far by other contestants, am I right in my assumption that he was an American?

In a way. No formal education though.
