Steve Haywood | 0 comments Is anyone interested in a game of 20 Questions? I think of something from sci-fi/fantasy, maybe a book, character, place, thing etc, and everyone else has got to ask questions to try and identify what it is. As the name implies, you've got to try and get it in less than 20 questions.

I'll allow most questions unless for instance someone asks (in the case of a person), what's their first name, what's their surname as that would just be giving it away!

Sounds like an interesting idea. How will you decide who gets to ask the next question? Different members have different schedules.

(Oh, Isn't the traditional style to make the questions yes/no?That's the way they did it on TV in the 50s :)

Run it up the flagpole and see who salutes it.

Steve Haywood | 0 comments You're right actually, yes/no questions are the best way of doing it. Also, lets say you can't ask more than one question consecutively, i.e. once you've asked a question, you've got to wait for someone else to ask a question before you get to ask another. Exception to that, is you can follow up an answer to your question with a guess if you want - though guesses count as one of the twenty questions :)

OK I've thought of something. Clue: it is a fictional character.
