Fun. Choose a famous person in your mind and answer the questions. It will guess it in under 20 questions. I did Neil Armstrong, Princess Di and Eric Cartmen and it got them all in under 20. bags

Played with it before, pretty freaky, until you realize that the results are compounded from each visit to the site and when people enter the correct answers when it gets it wrong...

It couldn't answer mine: Ben Gazarra! Got to 60 questions and I had to introduce him.
Got Walt Disney in 15. Couldn't get Robin Wright in 25. Nailed Tom Clancy in 20. Sting in 20. |
|
26 to get to John Clark, but it guessed Jack Ryan at 20.
Mr. GreenJeans from Captain Kangaroo in 20. And I didn't think the questions were at all relevant. Weird. Michael Valentine Smith in 20 with reasonably relevant questions. Not sure how it discerned The Sundance Kid over Butch Cassidy, but it asked about 6 questions after the pattern, "is your character part of a duo?" |
|
Leonard Nimoy in 16. 15 it asked if the character was from Star Trek, 16 it asked if he had pointed ears, then it went off on some tangent asking if he was in Disney films and such.
Helps that he has already been run over 1300 times. 36 to get to "Friday" from the Robert A. Heinlein book of the same name, that one has been played 105 times. |
|
24 to guess Francisco d'Anconia. It did guess John Galt at 20 though.

18 to get Homer Simpson
12 to get Erwin Rommel, which actually impressed me since I figured this was mainly a celebrity thing Went way out on a limb and decided to try it with a distant but infamous relative. At 19 it guessed Adolf Eichmann, which was close but wrong, then Erwin Rommel at 26, also wrong but closer...Michael Wittman at 40...Still close, still wrong...I think it was leaning towards Hitler around 47-48, guessed Reinhard Heydrich at 50...Hermann Fegelein at 59, which is closer still but also WRONG.... Still going, I bet ARFCOM could guess it before this thing. ETA: At 62 it came up with Heinz Guderian, which is wrong....Then gave me a list of 13 suggestions, all of which were wrong...Guess I'll have to teach it now, heh. |

Robin Olds (Triple Ace, Veteran of WW2, Korea, and Vietnam, Mastermind of Operation Bolo, featured on 'Dogfight' on the History Channel at least twice...) - @ 19 questions it came up with Eddie Rickenbacker, Chuck Yeager at 24, James Stewart ( Actor ) at 29, General Curtis LeMay at 39, Francis Gary Powers at 47, Paul Tibbets Jr. (BG Ret.)
( Enola Gay Pilot ) at 59, Francis Gabreski ( Francis Gabreski, WWII and Korea fighter ace ) at 62... Apparently Brig.Gen Robin Olds was already KNOWN to this thing, which even made the excuse of being close.... |
|
24 for The Stig, guessed Piers Morgan at 19, after that all the questions were dead on for The Stig.
|
|
|
After 70 questions it could not guess my character and had to suggest it.
I won |
|
It took 25 questions to get Ian Anderson.
27 questions to get Vlad Tepes. Ha! Stumped it with Major Sylvain-Eugene Raynal, CO of Fort Vaux during the Battle of Verdun. 10 questions for Marie Curie. Strangely, two of the questions asked whether my character was female. |
|
Got Nancy Wilson (from Heart) in 26... I'll admit, I was amazed
|
|
It failed!
I was thinking General Umberto Nobile, it gave me Enrico Fermi. Got to 24, no success, and crashed. _________________________________________________ ("Do not fail me again, Admiral!"––The Darth, (w,stte), "TESB") |

David Bowie in 20.
Trey Anastasio in 19. Hunter S Thompson in 18 Jerry Garcia in 14 Phillip Seymour Hoffman in 31 Speed |
