I'm so tired at work right now, I'm struggling to stay awake. Entertain me with questions, 20 of them at most, as you try to deduce this COMIC BOOK CHARACTER.

You knew what I meant.:angry:
Does she have an unusual skin color?
Y'know, the Heroclix questions, especially if the character does have a Heroclix figure, really does destroy some of the mystery. Despite the rather large number of characters in the game, it narrows it down significantly.

That's a good point. Next time I do this, I'll ban any Heroclix questions.

Ms Marvel?
Ms. Marvel got her powers by accident, I think.
I'm stumped. I can't think of any other flying Avengers who have been married.

I SUCK! This is why Kalel21 should be running this.
She is NOT married. I thought that she was, but after researching it (because Kalel was stumped), I realized that she never was married. My apologies.
So at this point, how many questions do we add back on?

I'd say 3, because those were all guesses on the premise that she was married.
The only flying, non-married female Avenger who did not get her powers by accident I can think of who has a Heroclix is Firestar.
Is it her?

So is everyone else fine with this? We move it back to 15 questions asked, 5 to go?
OR....it doesn't matter because Kalel is CORRECT! The answer is Firestar.

I'm okay with that.
So, IS it Firestar?

Actually, it should just be one question.
So you should be at 17. The guessing didn't actually start until then, you just didn't count those last two guesses.

For future reference, I was asked:
Is the character human? (I said 'Yes') She's a mutant, is that considered human? Magneto would say no.
Does her Heroclix figure have a Team Ability? (I said 'Yes') She has a REV, R = No TA, E = Spider-Man, V = Avengers. Is 'No' also a valid answer. How do you answer this question without giving away too much information?
I agree with Kalel, the HeroClix question is a HUGE crutch. We should ban it from these games.
I again apologize, as I thought she married her boy Justice. I guess it just wasn't meant to be.
No problem. It was still a good game. Especially since I won. :laugh:
The Mutant/human question is a tough one, but I probably would have said "Yes" to human as well.
When I got a similar TA question, I answered "Yes and no." But as long as we ban HC questions from future games, it really doesn't matter anymore.

Is it captain marvel (monica)?

You can't, that's why we should outlaw the Heroclix questions. If the character happens to have a Heroclix figure, you end up with a very small sample pool to ask questions about.
