After yesterday's Twenty Hints on one of the threads, I was reminded of that old favourite Twenty Questions.
Rules reminders:-
Someone thinks of something/someone and posts a very minimal clue - just the category (person, film title, object or whatever)
Others post questions, to which the answer can only be "Yes" or "No" or guesses of who/what they are thinking of.
Questions are limited to twenty.
If someone guesses correctly within the twenty, they choose the next subject, or nominate someone else to do so.
If not, the answer is given and another subject chosen, either by whoever posted the unguessed one or by someone else who has been nominated.

I'll start it off - A person.

Linsco56 Sun 30-Oct-16 10:22:22

Is the building in Western Europe?

br0adwater Sun 30-Oct-16 10:24:02

I have to go out. Maybe we should put a timer on this game so if no one guesses within say 30 minutes the next person can start a new word?

br0adwater Sun 30-Oct-16 10:24:46

Not Europe. 16 to go

br0adwater Sun 30-Oct-16 10:33:59

Any more guesses?

br0adwater Sun 30-Oct-16 10:40:04

Sorry, I do have to go out now. It was Sydney Opera House

Can someone else start the next round?

Wobblybits Sun 30-Oct-16 11:54:49

Anyone want to start another game ?

Bellanonna Sun 30-Oct-16 12:00:52

I'm off out too but let's keep this going. Other games just fade into the ether. Perhaps a longer time limit? This is a good one

Linsco56 Sun 30-Oct-16 12:18:36

Go on WB start another one. I'm visiting my mum but she's fallen asleep...so much for my riveting conversation!

Linsco56 Sun 30-Oct-16 12:30:03

OK....I'll start one.

It's an object.
