Reply To: Bigger than a Breadbox: Twenty Questions, JoCo-Song-Style
If you know that abstract concepts or verbs or whatever are within the rules, you just ask very broad questions at the beginning aimed at narrowing down the category. Once you've pegged the category, or something pretty close to it, you can play a normal kind of 20 questions. In this case, we have the clarity of a single category that's broad enough to be interesting, but narrow enough to give people a chance, so we're lucky.
That being said, is the song written in the first person singular? (I, me, mine and NOT we or us)?
