M_T's Twenty Questions

[Monter_Trismegistos]

Ok, I'm thinking of a person.

And I propose a little change of rules:
Guessing names doesn't count to number of questions. So please - don't be selfish - if you are trying to guess a name, add also other question in your post which would help others to find personality of this man.

HINT: He's not an American.

[Terminus]

Is he a military officer?

[The Other Kingmaker]

Is this person dead ?

[Bill Durrant]

Politician? and in the spirit of rules change - Lech Walesa - well you are from Gdansk[;)]

[Monter_Trismegistos]

1. Is he a military officer? YES
2. Is this person dead ? YES

[DandricSturm]

I would also like to suggest that people wait for one question to be answered before asking another. This caused me to miss a question in the last round.

[Terminus]

I'll second that...

[Monter_Trismegistos]

1. Is he a military officer? YES
2. Is this person dead ? YES
3. Politician? NO (a military officer can become later a politician so i answered this question - but not in this case)

[Terminus]

Was the person Polish?

[Monter_Trismegistos]

1. Is he a military officer? YES
2. Is this person dead ? YES
3. Politician? NO
4. Was the person Polish? NO

I dissagree with a suggestion for waiting for answer for every question. This will slow down this funny game. I will simply not count questions which are without sense after the answer of previously asked question.

[Terminus]

Did he have his military career in the 20th Century?
