20 Questions - Page 1086 - Puzzles and Other Games Forum

oops. i didn't see a question was already asked. i guess answer american or romanian.... that will be 17.

18 can be boginskaya or chusovitina

19 can be boginskaya

i think that should do it

although... damn... i don't think it could be an american or romanian. there are no americans on the list, and the only romanian is amanar, and she won a medal in 96, so it can't be her.

asking if she was chinese would be better than american or romanian. but boginskaya and chusovitina are the only gymnasts with memorable stories.

i can't think of any questions to ask to get extra info. like if we ask if it was a soviet born gymnast, those are the only two soviet born gymnast who fit.

Screw it, I'm going full YOLO at this point for the 50/50 at the end.

19. Is it one of Simona Amanar, Elena Produnova, Gabriela Potorac, or Andreea Raducan?

(Today's lesson: when winnowing from a known list, don't blow a question eliminating maybe 15% of that list)

not an official question but a clarification:

are you including rhythmic gymnastics and trampoline as "gymnastics"?
