Hahaha, I had a feeling you were going for that stretch, but if you’ll accept Temuchin, I’ll accept Ivan the Terrible. Answer: Yes I was the leader of a country. No, I was not born in the 20th Century Yes, I was non-fictional. No, I was not a scientist. No, I am not Russian. No, I am not American. No, I am not living Yes, I am male. ---

No, you cannot ask directly if I am a person, as I could in no way deflect that with another person’s name. If you think the individual is Tamerlane, you must ask about a characteristic of Tamerlane, like “Did you found the Timurid Empire?” Regardless, I am not Tamerlane. ---

> [@MadTheSwine](#): > > Are you tamerlane? > > am i allowed to ask that? You should rather ask a question that only has him as an answer. For example: _Were you the leader of Nazi Germany_, if you’re sure AH is Hitler. ---
