The discussion revolves around the classic game of 20 Questions, where one player thinks of an object and others ask yes/no questions to guess it. Participants express challenges in formulating effective questions and keeping track of answers. The game is initiated, with players asking questions to narrow down possibilities, leading to a lively exchange about strategies and guesses. Various objects are proposed, including vehicles and transport methods, with players attempting to refine their inquiries based on previous answers.

No, it's a single piece. A metallic segment, which you have to give a shape to. If you can't guess it, you can relax with a walk onto a mountain, and refresh yourself with a source of natural water... ;-)

I thought of keyring/chain, I'm not sure if there's infinite uses of it though..

You'r all almost there! Take Micromass' staple, or Gad's keyring and shape it a little more. You need to shape it in 3D, not on a plane. A keyring could be considered my object, when it's compressed at its limit. Both the clip and the keyring anyway have something in common with my object :-)

p.s. about my previous advice about a walk, I will add: "Going to natural sources of water is awesome in a warm season"

I really don't want to, whoever wants to start a new round, go ahead. :)

Does it fit in a backpack?
 
  • #258
It comes in many sizes...the smaller ones may fit into a backpack, the larger ones won't;
There is not much fun in the smaller ones though...

Quit the count down! Can't you see we answered the previous one with only 3 questions.

This one could be even faster, especially considering the previous questions...:)
