Well, since we're very good with this whodunnit thing, I decided to launch this little game here.
It's pretty simple. I am someone (person, cartoon, book character, whatever) and everyone else can have a guess at who I am.
The one who guesses it has the next round, and we'll try to guess on him/her.
I hope this works. :-)
To start, I'll give you all one hint: I'm a real person.

Very good! Yes, he invented a new weapon.

Running summary:

True =
Real person
NOT alive (=dead) :)
Male
American (and so as to avoid ambiguity, North American but not Canadian)
Dead more than 100 years, and less than 500 years
In the military (but not a general)
fame is military related
during American War for Independence
for a new kind of weapon

False =
American president
author
athlete
actor
not during Civil War
military rank (captain) is not relevant and occurred after his fame

Is the weapon a rocket or a rifle?? Could this person be William Congreve (the Congreve Rocket), or Robert Parker Parrott (the Parrott Rifle)??

We have a winner! Way to go Daenerys! David Bushnell, first to use the submarine as a weapon of war, after he proved gunpowder could be exploded underwater. Later he tried to use floating mines to break the British blockade. Neither weapon was effective during the Revolutionary War, but later ....

Pretty cool to have him as a relative, on my mother's side.

So Daenerys, who are you now?

Thank you. Peter :). Wow, it's an honour to have an ancestor (or a relative) like him.

Who am I now? For a change, I am a man :D.

Was he from one of the Americas? Africa? Australia? Asia? Europe? That's everything but Antarctica right there :)
