Same rules as here except I'm going to start with 2 clues
1. I was last seen in the late spring or early summer of 1995
2. I am a MIT graduate
3. I fought in the Vietnam War
4. I graduated from high school at age 16, and went on to specialize in quantum physics
ARE YOU A FEMALE BLEYS
Do you have anything to do with the MIT Blackjack team?
No, I am not a female Bleys.Quote:

Have you ever held an elected government position?
By "last seen," do you mean that you disappeared?
Which MIT are we talking about here?
No.Quote:

(I'm hoping to get up to Clue 7 this round, but I'll be bitterly disappointed if I have to post Clue 8. Over half way there, and only one more tough clue before I start trying to give it away)
Ok, so using my powers of deduction I think I've figured out who the person is, though I feel as though I've cheated...
It's not cheating to use Google. Timekeeper's guess Dr. Sam Beckett, delivered via mognet message is correct.
Clue 7 was going to be "My only guide on this journey is Al, an observer from my own time who appears in the form of a hologram that only I can see and hear." It would have been badass to get there, but it's even more badass that EoFFers can draw correct conclusions from :bou::bou::bou::bou:ty clues.
I'll probably only do one more round, as soon as I can think of a good person to be.
I didn't even know fictional people were included. I was thinking it was some North Vietnamese war criminal who studied at, I dunno, the Manipal Institute of Technology or something.
One of the sample yes-or-no questions I suggested in Round 1 was "Are you fictional?", which I think adequately telegraphs my intention to use a fictional character at some point. Also, clue #5 was going to be "I have the same initials as the actor who portrayed me," which would have given away that we were dealing with a fictional character. Oh yeah, and Timekeeper's never seen Quantum Leap and still managed to guess correctly via the magic of the Internet, which I was operating under the assumption you'd all be using, since this whole thing is taking place on the Internet. (Seriously, though, who hasn't seen Quantum Leap? :()
Oh, and if someone else wants to do Round 3 before I think of a good candidate, go ahead. I'd only intended to do 3 rounds, but I won't object to others taking over and/or running this game into round 16,384 if they want.
Hey, awesome!
I quite like this game, so I'm up for doing a round at some point.
-- Apparently Quantum Leap wasn't released in Australia until 2005, on DVD...
steven hawking?
The round's over, Cac.
