I though I would an interesting new game to the OT forum.

The rules are pretty simple, but require that people play fair and engage in some "self-regulation".

Basically, someone posts a quote they find or know of without revealing the author of said quote. Then, people in the forum ask questions to get clues to guess the identity of the person. There is no limit to the # of questions and the person who posts the quote can give 1-2 introductory clues to get people going in the right direction.

I'll start so here goes!!

"Every single case of inherited defect, every malformed child, every congenitally tainted human being brought into this world is of infinite importance to that poor individual; but it is of scarcely less importance to the rest of us and to all of our children who must pay in one way or another for these biological and racial mistakes"

Clue - Its a woman.

Was she Black or White?

Was she part of the civil rights movement?

When was she born?

its hillary clinton! jk

but ppl can easily cheat and google the quote.... just sayin

There was a like thread, but identifying historic folk with pictures - it died out though since folk can easily look it up.

I actually tried googling it but google has a 32 word limit

It would be pretty cool if someone did this, but exclusively with warlight players/forumers' quotes. :P

@Zeph

It was already done earlier, not bothered to find the thread since it's late, but it definitely was done earlier by someone.

Was she Black or White?

Was she part of the civil rights movement?

When was she born?

1) White
2) No
3) 1879

Was she a National Socialist?

Was gonna say ayn rand, but she wasn't born in 1879.

Is she french? Has she won a nobel prize?

Margaret Sanger

Dang it...

dd jinks googled it

No, I deduced it from date of birth + by reading the actual quote and determining the ideals behind the person who would write such a thing.

The Pivot of Civilization is where that quote is from

Nothing is more precious than independence and liberty.

Ho Chi Minh

1) Is this man an American?

2) If the answer to 1 is 'yes,' then is this man a founding father of the US?

3) If the answer to the previous two is 'no,' then is this man a historical figure from 1930s-1960s?

I already answered it, Binks.

Its Margaret Sanger.

Then you should have given a quote, yourself. I was questioning DKnight, but I think Zenvue got it right, already.
