One player thinks of a person, place, or thing. The other players try to guess what he's thinking by asking him "yes" or "no" questions. If they can't figure out the name of the person, place, or thing, the first player wins. If someone does figure it out, she gets to think of something next.  If a puzzle goes unattended for more than a week, send a reminder to the player.  If it goes unattended for another week, assume it's dead and start a new one.

I have one.

IS IT ME?!!!

You guessed it.

I will try again and this time, I'll come up with one that is not Vixcis.

...One that isn't me?

...this game is stupid...

*Crosses arms and looks all pouty and then storms out of the game*

Wait, come back!

Meh, it was bound to happen sooner or later :D

There are still unscarred minds lurking about!

I don't have any scars, but that's only because the wounds are too fresh.

though your fresh wounds will soon scar, but at least their on your face...you'd be scarface...wait did he ever have a scar on his face? If he doesn't that, I object!

Big scar on his (I wanna say left) side of his cheek.

Wait, are we playing or guessing about scars?

I had a subject, but we keep getting derailed.

Hence the scarring.  Being derailed is very painful.   Please...you were saying?

*calls from the hallway*

Are we playing a new one?!...

...

... ...

... ... ...

Is it me?!!

Wow!!!!  You win again!!!!

ok, your turn, my dear.  What are you thinking of?

I mean, besides, you know, that!

FourLegged hides in a specially protected bunker. "Nope, not a new one.  The same old one that wasn't you."

I'm thinking of a good question...

good then think!

i can't, someone keeps interrupting me!

who?

you?

not me.

Then who?

PIA?

Wait...are these counting as part of our twenty questions?

yes i think.

whoops, we lose :D

how's that so?

we asked 20 questions

really?

Yeah, you just asked #21

how's that possible?!

and those last few won't be counted since they have no relevance to the game.

where's FL when you need him?

does that count?

no, because its not a yes or no question.

lol...hmmm...

Is it a solid?

finally.

now to get FL over here to answer some of these questions.

I think that question has been asked, kisa.

Maybe not.

maybe if FL would GET OVER HERE, we would know.

why dont you PM him?

I did. Like a few days ago.

And he replied.

something about 'I'll do it later tonight.'

maybe in Koala terms, later means never.

probably.  maybe if I poke it....

never poke "it"

apparently he is not an 'it'

so.... we get to wait longer.

should I bet here too?

nah, I want to keep some of my ink

are you really a squid? you look more like an octupus..

I am an octopus, but everyone (read: Zeldi) calls me the 'Squiddly fella', and I learned to accept it, along with their monetary contributions to my campaign fund.

thus ends my confusion.

ok.  looks like FL isn't coming back.  I've got an answer for the 20 questions.

I think that's one of the requirements for being classified as a plant...

since Fungi, and Amoebae are the only 'living things' that can honestly live, without either co2, or Oxygen, at least as far as I know.  As such I must conclude that something has either gone wrong or I'm utterly confused...   I will concede till the twentieth question has been asked.

Having seen the answer (and so not playing), I would actually say that Yoss is accurate in his assessment both that it is "alive" and that it does not breathe CO2. Keep asking.

It's a good confusing thing, that's for sure. Let me think of another question.

I'll give you a hint, most people wouldn't call it a "plant" in a vernacular sense, even though I said "yes" to that question.  (As often happens in 20 Q's, some questions are just not suited to the item chosen, so it's hard to answer them.)

Next time I'll use the scratchpad instead of a private line to hide my answer.

It would appear we are not solving this one?

Since I know the answer, I feel the need to advise you to look at the yes questions and try to focus there.

A smooth plant, clearly tangible, and existing in reality.  It is neither a fungus, nor is it a flower...   Yet it does not consume CO2, nor does it consume air.

In reply to Yoss (msg # 235):

Not so private, is it?

[OOC; Are we supposed to ask the answer question in a private message? Because I wasn't made aware-- Also, you know that no CO2, means no photosynthesize]
Is it a ghost plant (a.k.a. indian pipe/corpse plant/monotropa uniflora)?

I'm just going with the give up option...   I'll debate how right it is after the fact.

Aww, come now, it's not that bad is it?

17. (Hint from Yoss) Is it real and commonplace?  Yes.

pretty sure I covered that when I asked the 'is it real' questions (thanks Lulu :p)

The questions asked have been missleading, unfortunately.

You could potentially try going back over the questions and clarify each one, but I honestly wouldn't...   when it comes to 20 questions sometimes people succeed at getting something nobody can guess.  You should feel good about it and declare a win, then we get to know what it was and go 'daarrn'

18. Is it in a symbiotic relationship?  No.

So, if it's commonplace that means that a lot of people know about it, and it's pretty easy to find, which also means it has been hiding under our noses the whole time, so I don't know? Is it a friggin' daisy?

18. Is it in a symbiotic relationship?  No.
19. Is it a daisy?  No. It is not "debatable" that a daisy is a flower (Q10), so that can't be it.  However, it is "debatable" that a daisy is alive since the status of being picked and dying or being alive and growing is not specified (Q1).

Let me know when you're ready for another hint.  I do not think you're close enough to guess specific items yet.  Keep asking generic questions.

Is it... wait.  I still know what it is. Nevermind.

This doesn't seem like it would be hard to guess.  Then again, I suppose this is just a hard game.

This is good practice for troubleshooting.  Start by narrowing down your options to only a few possible solutions.

Once it is isolated, then you start picking off the more obvious possibilities.

Then go for specifics.

Finally make your semi-educated guesses.

Updated answer to question 8, since a simple "yes" was missleading.

Honestly I don't think anyone is going to get this in the last guess so I'm just going to ask is it a Venus fly trap?

Is it an artpiece??

Since the answer has been guessed at 21 times, and no ones gotten it, I'd say the game's over. Perhaps I am wrong.

Fortunately, I saw the answer in Yoss' private note to himself.

The object in question is...

(drumroll)

...an apple.

Well, all fruits start as a flower and an apple is a fruit.

That answer made me spill my tea...

I've got one if anyone wants to ask questions.

Is it an animal?

Is it bigger than a breadbox?

Is it a colour you'll find in a rainbow?

Should we wait for jioan to answer?

I guess

Wanna do another one while we wait?

Sure, go for it!

It is a thing?

Out of the category person/place/thing, I assume you mean? Yes.

Safe assumption

Is it bigger than a breadbox?

New one?

Okay I have a thing.. go on and guess!

Is it an object?

Is it an object? -- Yes
