You all know the game. I think of someone and you ask questions to figure out who I'm thinking of to which I can reply only 'yes' or 'no'. Because I'm going to be thinking of anyone under the sun, you have any number of questions that is reasonable (i.e. not restricted to 20).
The people can be alive, dead, real (i.e. they actually once walked on this earth or are still walking today) or unreal (i.e. they are a character of some sort).
Alright: I'm thinking of someone.
