Cricket Kasoti

[nightprowler10]

I got this idea from a classic Pakistani TV show, though I'm sure there are versions of it all over the world. You think of a famous international cricketer (must have played at least 5 international matches) and then have people ask you 20 questions the answers to which can only be Yes or NO. The person asking the question should provide a hint after the 15th question if he/she thinks nobody seems to have a clue. Whoever guesses the person right at the end, gets to ask the next question. Though it is imperative that the person answering the questions has all facts straight.

The person will answer one question at a time.

Alright, so I'll start. The questions in the beginning are usually about the gender of the person or if he/she is alive, etc.

GO....

EDIT: Just like Hangman cricket, no consecutive guesses allowed, members shall not be allowed to guess consecutively. This should allow others to have guesses as well.

EDIT (July 18th, 2007): An incorrect guess will automatically rule a poster out for the question.

EDIT (July 26th, 2007):

We've decided to introduce vCash prizes to be awarded for the correct guess.

The amount of vCash to be awarded as decided by nightprowler10 is as follows.

No of Questions		vCash
11			500
12			450
13			400
14			350
15			300
16			250
17			200
18			150
19			100
20			50

No. Its a bit like Hangman in that sense, as long as the preceding question has been answered, it doesn't matter.

Is it an Asian?

Yes (19 questions left)

Yes (19 questions left)

I meant that are you going to keep rules in it to prevent spam such as no consecutive posts or anything similar.

Since there's nothing of the sort as we speak,I'll give it another go.

Is it a Pakistani?

That's a good idea. It will give other people a chance to participate. I'll answer this one and then go to the no consecutive guesses rule.

Is it a Pakistani?

Yes (18 questions left)

Mehkar, that's not the type of question he was looking for. He was looking for a question which he could respond to with a "yes" or a "no".
