So I've been planning on making this thread for quite awhile now, since 2012 as I recall, but as always, I procrastinated. Anywho, no, this is not a copy of Name That Song, I was taught this game in "The Real World" and played it there.
So here's how it works, someone, me to start, thinks of a dead person who must be famous. To avoid as much spam as possible, gives off certain details about him/her from the start. After that, everyone will try to guess who said dead guy is whilst asking 'yes' or 'no' questions about him. It would be preffered, so as to avoid spam, that unless you have a rather unique question, or are guessing the identity of the dead guy, that you ask more than one question per post.
E.G.
Person 1: I'm thinking of a dead male, caucasion with black hair
Person 2: did he did within the last 5 years and was a singer?
Person 1: Yes to both.
Person 2: Micheal Jackson.
Person 1: Yes. Chose your dead guy.
I'm going to start off with a dead caucasion male, black hair, was known for being on television and without further questioning I will go into no more details on what area of television.
The only guy I can think of who fits these descriptions is Jimmy McShane, from Baltimora.
Glad to see my dead guy wasn't too obscure for somebody. Almost four weeks of leaving people completely stumped, too. I'm not going to hesitate to say that I'm very proud of myself for finding the perfect amount of obscurity.
Has the man ever directed for a movie or was involved behind the scenes in any way?
You'd think with so many acting credits (IMDB gives him over 100 more than Wikipedia claims) he would have directed something, but no. Although he did work as a set designer very early on for a famous director and producer.
Has the man been in any movies that have become trilogies or sagas?
If he has, they're too obscure for major online databases. Most likely not.
Was the man a child or teenager when he started his acting career?
Technically, but he didn't appear in any films until he was in his 20s.
