Title: Akinator, the Web Genius
Post by: yunhua98 on February 04, 2012, 12:40:50 pm

I can't believe I just found this site.  :o
Although I've pretty much figured out the theory behind it, it never ceases to amaze me how often it guesses my character.
See for yourself.

If you defeat it after letting it use all 40 questions, screenshot it and post it here!

Crap, it figured out my character way too easily :P

It took my second character a few more tries before it got it.

(1. Taokaka 2. Torakaka) XD

I was surprised to see, "Is your character from the BlazBlue series?"

Hm, he didn't even found Amir Khadir (politician). He found Jean Charest (Prime minister of Québec) and Gilles Duceppe (former politician) though. Guess lesser known politicians are hard to find, they are all nearly the same, unless you're prime minister of Canada, Québec or Ontario.

Uncanny... Doesn't know Jon from Garfield though.

EDIT: It asked a bunch of random questions that weren't specific at all, and somehow got Marvin the robot O.O

I thought of the Monitor of Installation 05 from Halo 2... It thought Metagross... After it asked, "Is your character related to the Halo series?" <Yes> :/

The next guess was spot on though. :D

Oh my gosh :O I thought of Tim Lambesis of As I Lay dying first, and it got it on the second guess. Then Winston McCall of Parkway Drive on the first! Then he got Machiavelli on the second try... But I got him with Robert Owen ;) (the Scottish socialist reformer)

Um... It changed the page for me to input the person before I could change the screen, but here's the confirmation thing of me adding the person.
