Twenty questions, round 209

[Spartaculous]

So either a male dead after 1970 or a living non-binary person.

Technically speaking, I do not think you have established this is a human being yet.

Born after the end of World War II?

No.

[Hominidae]

Human born in what is currently the United States, but not Montana or the Dakotas?

Human born in what is currently the United States, but not Montana or the Dakotas?

Yes.

[Hominidae]

1: Real (not a fictional character)
2. Not a real human born somewhere other than what is currently Canada, the United States, or Mexico
3: Either living or died after 1970
4,5: Not a politician or athlete; not primarily known as a writer, artist, or actor
6: Not a live male human
7: Not female
8,11: Born in what is currently the United States, but not in what is currently a state with at least seven million people as of the latest census, or Montana, or the Dakotas
9: Not a musician, scientist, or social media influencer
10: Not born after the end of World War II

[Hominidae]

I forgot to put "human" in the summary.

Born in 1910 or earlier?

[Spartaculous]

Born in 1910 or earlier?

Yes.

I forgot to put "human" in the summary.

I will also spot you all that this person is male, so that the list cleans up a bit:

1,6,7: Real dead male human being
3,10,12: Born before 1910, died after 1970
4,5,9: Not a politician, athlete, musician, scientist, or social media influencer; not primarily known as a writer, artist, or actor
2,8,11: Born in what is currently the United States, but not in what is currently a state with at least seven million people as of the latest census, or Montana, or the Dakotas

Free guess: Colonel Sanders

[Hominidae]

Scratch that. Too many guesses in a row.

Duly scratched.

[DarthPorg36]

I'm going to make my free guess again:

Colonel Sanders

I'm going to make my free guess again:

Colonel Sanders

It is, indeed, another person with a militaristic title associated with chicken!

I don't know if we've seen that before... someone guessing the correct answer and then scratching it.

I figured it could be a business person, then looked up "famous american businessmen" and realized that Colonel Sanders fit everything.

I was pretty confident, but I realized that I was asking too many questions in a row. I wouldn't have been offended if someone else had stolen my answer.

Next thread will be up soon.

It was a very impressive solve at that stage of the game. You had his approximate lifetime, the fact he was born in the US, quite a few occupations ruled out... and not much more than that. Well done!

(Also, he is the third Colonel on our list.)
