20 Questions Help

Back to Games Help

You (PLURAL, or as they say in Texas and vicinity, YA’LL) get 20 questions. Everyone is working as a group; everyone altogether gets 20 questions, not each individual. I had some confusion on that. You may only ask yes/no questions; other types of questions will receive ‘invalid’ for an answer. That means it will count, but it won’t receive an answer. You may give me a guess anytime you wish; just remember that you can only ask questions in the first twenty, so if you use up your questions on guesses, you’ll only get into a corner that you can’t get out of. If I get two questions that are similar in one day both people will receive credit.
These are the possible answers:

Yes: This is a positive response, which means that your question as a statement would be true.
No: This is a negative response, which means that your question as a statement would be false.
Maybe: This is neither positive nor negative a response. It is either in-between or invalid to the object in question, and therefore unanswerable. The wording of this response does not necessarily make sense to the object in question.
Invalid: I would hope that you don’t get this response, because it means you made a faulty mistake in your question.

Please do not expect to deprive you of the research I’m sure you hunger for. :-) I had another person say he/she learned a lot from that game, despite giving up after some time. I can’t make you do research for this game, but if your just going to stare at the questions until your eyeballs pop out, you’re probably headed nowhere.
