    I'm up for it. The only problem though, what if ppl start being greedy, make silly guesses and exhausting the questions?

    btw, I'm still kinda in shock that dakeem got it.. It was an out-of-nowhere guess by him (in my eyes) and I really thought u guys weren't gonna get it

    Good point.

    Would it be good then to have a contest where one guy gets 21 questions to solve the game, and the person with the least questions needed to answer it win the whole contest?

    How would that work? Just have them each PM me? Because if someone post a question, others will be able to see them and take advantage of it..?

    Nah. It's basically like this.

    dakeem1 has 21 questions to solve your question. The questions can only be asked by him. He solves it in 13 questions.

    Dan Le (reminds me, where is he?) has 21 questions to solve your next question. He solves it in 11 questions.

    Aznxballer has 21 questions to solve your third question. He solves it in 16.

    Dan Le is the winner.

    Oh I see, hm, I guess that would work, but that would mean that everybody else have to wait while one person is doing their question thing? Or just have multiple threads running simultaneously for everybody?

    Multiple threads would speed it up. Maybe you could start a signup thread.

    OMG! I was right? Okay. Well it was partially a guess. I mean, MJ ain't really a singer anymroe but he is still a celebrity. I just forgot where he grew up, so I wasn't sure if it was among the states where the NBA western conference is situated.

    I also recently submitted an essay into my university which was a critique on the way the media has handled the MJ Trial, so I'va had alot of the 'King of Pop' in my head haha. I'm still astonished I guessed correctly.

    As for this new individual 21 questions game, I agree it may not be fair because each answer is different. For example, Jordan and the Staples Question took alot less to figure out than the Jackson answer. Of course it was abit of a guess, but in the same time it fit into the questions already answered, so I thought it was worth a shot with only 2 questions left.

    So (without getting too big of a head) I think my answer may have more merit than the other games we played.
