RULES

1. Only yes/no objective 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.
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.

GO!

If we brought him back to life and had him join this website-

would he come to the forum?

IF so, which sub-forums would he use?

A non-European non-English native speaker. That leaves Asia, Africa and South America I guess.

Politician / Military?

There are plenty of well known people from North America who were not native English speakers!
