"Yes and No" Nonetheless, since no one else has made a claim, it's my turn! You are given 20 questions with which to narrow down the possible number answers you may give to guess the object I have in mind. By object, I refer to this noun definition: dictionary.reference.com/browse/objectThough (3) in that definition is to be ignored, bit unfair to make you have 20 questions to narrow down a goal. Upon a correct answer given, the one who gave the correct answer may accept the mantle of their go, which they may hand to someone else depending on their willingness to make others answer 20 questions. I will accept a question as an answer where it is of the form: "Is it a <some answer>?", otherwise, just an answer will suffice. Answers phrased as questions will also count as a question for the purposes of the 20 questions. Should you spam answers in an attempt to brute force it, I will simply ignore you. I also grant you 3 hints, anyone may request a hint; if politely phrased, it will not count as a question toward the 20 questions. Once a person requests a hint, the number of hints decrement until it reaches 0, then there are no more hints. My answers will be as succinct as possible, in the extreme they will be yes or no, otherwise you will get an essay. Ambiguous questions will be answered as ambiguously as possible, for example: "Is it in some fan fiction or a city?", "Yes" Now, you may ask your first question. |

Is it a pointlessly long post about a 20 question game?

Question's Left: 16, Hints Left: 3.
No
Assuming that your question refers to whether it involves an inherent form of communication.
Though as with anything, you may express it in numerous ways for various meanings.
