All hail the all-knowing Akinator

[Damien the Pigeon]

Oh my God! He gets some of them so quickly! I know a few were easy, but for Ratchet, he was like "Does he have a yellow color? From a videogame? Big ears? Uses weapons? Wears armor? RATCHET!

EDIT: Oh! He didn't get Luna from FF3! He also didn't get Nobuo Uematsu! I win!

 

[MSORPG pl4y3r]

I beat him on the first go I'm trying again now........

ok second time he got it I'll try again....

yup he got it again I could do this all day.

 

[Lord Beautiful]

Thing is cool. It only missed one serious one so far, and that was Kurama for Yu Yu Hakusho. Everything else, including Yu Yu Hakusho characters, Dragon Ball Z characters, Ninja Nonsense characters, and Pedobear, it has gotten right.

 

[DI7789]

I was going for Yahtzee.
He guessed Terry Pratchett.
Maybe a journalist doesn't qualify as a writer?

I go for Yahtzee yet again, and he replies with HeatoN, apparently a professional Counterstrike player.

I will keep going for Yahtzee until he gets him.
First guess: Terry Pratchett
Second Guess: HeatoN
Third Guess: Alan Moore
Fourth Guess: Stephen Hawking
Fifth Guess: Stephen Hawking
Sixth Guess: Jacek Dukaj (a Polish Scifi writer, apparently)
Seventh Guess: HeatoN
Eight Guess: Guy Ritchie
Ninth Guess: Vladimir Goryachev
Tenth Guess: Anja Rubik
Eleventh Guess: Terry Pratchett
Twelfth Guess: Tota W Arpad
Thirteenth Guess: Anja Rubik
Fourteenth Guess: Yahtzee

It took him 14 guesses, more than half of whom he guessed twice, to get Yahtzee.

Got him on the first try with me

 

[Damien the Pigeon]

Hey guys, just a warning. I went on there again and one of the adverts tried to hijack my browser and then open up adobe acrobat. Be careful....

 

[Johnn Johnston]

Well, I'm just getting him asking me an empty speech bubble.

 

[Starnerf]

Well, I'm just getting him asking me an empty speech bubble.

There's an activeX control it needs to display the questions. I had to run it in IE to get them to show up.

 

[Laughing Man]

Fail, doesn't work with Firefox. He didn't guess that now did he?

OOOps idiot behind the keyboard fail, it does work with FF it doesn't work with FF and adblocker installed. No matter it didn't manage to get Anubis from Stargate, it thought of Ford Perfect from Hitchhikers.

It didn't get James West from Wild Wild West either instead coming up with Marion Cobretti (who?).

 

[jebussaves88]

Matt Bellamy, Valentino Rossi, Ethan Thomas (Condemned), my ex, Tom Cruise, Cleveland Brown, Scott Mitchell (GRAW) and Jackie Estacado (The Darkness) all got right. This thing is way more fun than it should be...

 

[buggy65]

OMFG! It got Mobius One from Ace Combat 4!

WHAT IS THIS THING!!!!!!

 

[SilentHunter7]

OMFG! It got Mobius One from Ace Combat 4!

WHAT IS THIS THING!!!!!!

I know, it freaked me out when I got that, too. It also gets the squad members from Ace Combat 5.

 

[Phantom2595]

Wow, he got Lighting for FF13. I was think about that because I just watched the trailer. AMAZING IT READ MY MIND!

...

This can't be good if 4chan is teaching it...

EDIT: Tried it again , he got it right ,Ariel Rebel.

 

[Crazy_Bird]

OMG, it guessed "My penis" right. It does ask a lot of silly questions on the way though. "Does your character wear women's underwear?" and my favorite was Question 13 "Has your character ever met the American president?".

 

[TheRightToArmBears]

Got Conker (Conker's Bad Fur Day). I think I remember this from somewhere else... Its good fun.

 

[Skeleon]

Sweet, he got Cthulhu right.
I'll keep trying a few more I guess.

Aha! He needed two consecutive tries for "MacBeth", but he got it. At first he thought "Vampire".

Sauron, on the first try. That one was too easy. Hey, this is fun! Hm... what next?

Hm, he didn't get Ash from the Evil Dead trilogy until the second try. Still, quite amazing.

God-Emperor Leto II took two tries as well.

Duncan Idaho took three attempts but he finally got it right.

He got Xardas from the Gothic series right on the first try! Didn't expect that at all! I thought he was too little known!

Aha. Finally beat this thing. He couldn't figure out Samantha Clarke (from Supreme Commander).

 

[Penguins4Freedom]

Goddamn! He got Thursday Next! and Jeeves! and Jonathan Creek!

Bravo.

 

[Sephychu]

I'm not very good at thinking of really obscure characters, but it has more rights than wrongs for me so far.

EDIT: Alas, it just failed miserably at Eddie Izzard.

 

[B4D 9R4MM3R]

Tried Genar-Hofoen.

Got Zakalwe (from Use of Weapons), then Horza (from Consider Phlebas), then Raul Endymion until he gave up.

I was pretty suprised with the first two actually.
