20 Questions Game (3) Solved!

votes

Greetings SpanishDict users!

Here is a game, a simple game. grin

I am thinking of a noun in Spanish and you guys have to guess what it is!


How you ask? Simple! You guys post a question (or your guess to the noun, which counts as a question) and I post an answer to the question.

The catch?

You must only ask a yes or no question.

Or, you can just post a guess to my word (which is a noun), which counts as a question.

Then, I will comment "yes" or "no" to your question.


The challenge is to find the answer in less than 20 Questions. But, if we take more, that is still OK.

Last time it took all of us 69 questions to find the answer. Lets see if we can beat that score.

Yay! We got this one in only 34 questions! Thats a 51% difference! Congrats to sv2qp to getting the answer first!


Of course, If you answer, you get at least one vote--therefore the asker gets 10 rep a vote! And the winner (the first to get the answer) gets 20 points!


Good Luck!

Yes! You got it! - espanol5555, Dec 11, 2010
It has metal wires and such, most of us use it, it move very slowly (on Vibrate mode!), its masculine, newer cars have phones in them, you can pick it up with only one hand. - espanol5555, Dec 11, 2010
It moves slowly??? Hmmm - ronm192, Dec 11, 2010

So to summarize the major hits so far:

1) It has some metal 2) Most of us use it 3) It moves very slowly 4) It is a masculine noun in Spanish 5) It has something to do with newer cars but not other cars 6) You can pick it up with one hand

Thank you for that. It's hard to keep track of all of the yes and no answers. - amykay, Dec 11, 2010
Yeah it is for sure. yw. - ronm192, Dec 11, 2010
All True. Just when you think about how slow it moves, think outside the box! - espanol5555, Dec 11, 2010
Just saw the answer. I think the "it moves slowly" clue is deceptive. Fun game though. - ronm192, Dec 11, 2010

Moves slowly, NOT living, multiple bullet wounds or even might have a knife in it's head.

Something a native English speaker like me would never think of to eliminate half the possibilities. Excellent!!! - lorenzo9, Dec 9, 2010
No, it is masculine. And thats the point of the game! Cut the possible answers in half, then to fourths, eighths, etc. - espanol5555, Dec 9, 2010
I understand that's the point of the game, but I am handicapped by 50 years of genderless thinking. - lorenzo9, Dec 10, 2010
