Ok! Here's a question! Me and a few 0f my フレンズ got into an argument about it and I would like to know ur opinion...

yeah i can see why there would be a ディベート over this :D
i would say that yes it does count, but only if it's really obvious that it's you.
i think i'd find it difficult to 'pretend to be myself' because any noticeable quirks i have that make me recognisable to everyone else i probably wouldn't be that conscious of, so yeah it would be difficult to portray myself in charades...
but i'd try it.
