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.

Were you born ... sorry, was HE born more than 500 years ago? Was he born more than 1000 years ago? Was he born more than 2000 years ago? Was he European?

Apr-21-2013 16:39

*Chuckle.*

Now you're gettin' it. ;-)

Yes, he was born more than 500 and 1000 years ago. No, he was not born more than 2000 years ago. And yes, he was European. ;-)

The Mystery Person is:

A male.
A human.
Born on Earth.
Definitely a real person.
Has had at least one statue of him erected.
Comes "from heaven."
Was born before 1800.
Was born more than 500 years ago.
Was born more than 1000 years ago.
Was European.


It is not:

A female.
From an otherworldly place.
A mythical character.
Considered sexy or svelte. (Still laughin' at that one!! ;-)
A politician. (Same comment above applies. ;-)
An actor. (Ditto. ;-)
A terrorist. (Double ditto. ;-D
Currently alive.
American.
Have a statue placed in the U.S. (as far as I know).
Born more than 2000 years ago.

You're getting closer!! ;-)

Was he Roman? Was he an emperor?

Apr-22-2013 07:11

Damn. I go away for a couple days and you drag Jesus into this?!!! :P Tsk, tsk, tsk, B.
Though seriously, is it "Him"? And if so, where were you born, Rio de Janeiro?? :)

Apr-22-2013 07:13

And I'm not an expert, but I'd think Heaven is kinda sorta otherworldly.
(See: my previous questions)

Apr-22-2013 10:01

No, he was not Roman. And no, he was not an emperor.

*Chuckle.*
I didn't bring Jesus into this. Or "Him," for that matter. ;-) Neither one is correct. And no, our guy was not born in Rio de Janeiro. (Chuckling again at that one, though. ;-)
Heaven probably is considered otherworldly. And our guy is generally considered to be *associated* with heaven. But he was born on Earth, lived on Earth, and very much died on Earth. So that makes him an Earthling, at least in my poor humble opinion. ;-D

(Yeah, I know, I'm confusing a whole lotta people here. You'll get it when you figure out who it is. I think. ;-)

So. We have:

The Mystery Person is:

A male.
A human.
Born on Earth.
Definitely a real person.
Has had at least one statue of him erected.
Comes "from heaven."
Was born before 1800.
Was born more than 500 years ago.
Was born more than 1000 years ago.
Was European.


It is not:

Have a statue placed in the U.S. (as far as I know).
Born more than 2000 years ago.
Roman.
An Emperor.
Jesus Christ.
God (the Christian version, or any other religious One).
Born in Rio de Janeiro.

Keep goin'!! ;-D

P.S. -- A small clue: You're the reason I chose the person I did, Bela. ;-D ;-D ;-D B.

Apr-23-2013 01:32

Oooh, you know who I am? Or who Bela is, rather?? That'd be pretty awesome. And I'll wait for an answer this time, instead of charging right in! :)

And I asked cuz all the ideas of him being an actor, a terrorist, etc. seemed hiilarious! (to you, at least)

And cuz of the "heaven" things, is he associated with religion, or summat??
I'm stumped.

Let's recapitulate: the mysterious man is a European who was born between 1st and 11th centuries A.D. Was he a king, or saint, or pope? Was he English, Scottish, Italian, Spanish, German or French?

Apr-23-2013 04:54

There's something in the "pope" there, Daenerys. Maybe, Breit doesn't know Bela but focused on the III part.

Apr-24-2013 09:30

Bela? III? Do you mean Bela III, king of Hungary (and Croatia)? Had I lived in the 12th century, he would have been my king :D. But he was born too late to be our mysterious man.
