I swear I'm not kidding. It even got obscure characters like omochao and Pegasus's guard from yugioh. :p

Tch, it still comes up Miyamoto Shigeru instead of Aonuma Eiji.

The PHILISTINE.

Lol. It guessed every single one right for me. I was laughing my ass off the entire time. Some programmer must have had fun getting the answers to lead to the right person. xD

I've stumped it too before.

Woah, got it right so far each time I've tried. This is awesomely fun :D

Edit: Finally stumped it; I tried giving it an obscure character, so I picked Glenstorm the centaur from Narnia. It keeps giving me HP centaurs :p

Took 3 times for me on one my characters.

That site is a huge time sink...

No joke. It might just be worse than tvtropes. :p
Amazing how it guesses so many obscure characters.

BWAHAHA! Even now, Akinator can't beat me and my obscure characters! >: D

Haha, maybe I should try picking characters from more obscure sources, since it even gets obscure characters from more well known series (it properly guessed Stan Shunpike from HP, Olette from KH, Frogfucius, Lobelia Sackville-Baggins and Hama from LotR, and Data-Sora from KH... after guessing Sora once, but got Data Sora on its second try). It's even funnier when it picks a character even more obscure than the one I'm thinking of...

This is old. It has a database of characters and atributes. Each time someone go through it, it adds the data to the database. If it is not in the database, it will prompt you to introduce it to it.

Doesn't make it any less entertaining, though :p. I know it's all based on user input and it doesn't have a mind of it's own or anything, but I still definitely have several O_O moments while playing it.
It's basically an internet version of Twenty Questions with a computer "opponent". I suppose that it gets a bit more difficult to stump it as more time goes by and more information is added to the database.

Well, all I can say is I was a bit surprised after answering every question with "I don't know," I got a picture of George W. Bush.

It's more fun when you stump it with real people imo. :p Although it has to be a REALLY obscure person for akinator to get stumped. Because it can even guess when you are making it think of yourself. xD

Why do I get the urge to try Tommy Tellarico now?

Well, it didn't recognise me, so obviously it isn't that good! :P

Already tried it. Guessed it right.

I sincerely hope that you added yourself (including your avatar picture) into the database.

Dammit. Hrm... gotta think of someone else more obscure now.

I've been stumping it a fair bit, actually.

Finally got one stumper. I'm guessing everyone else guessed pretty randomly since several of the questions could be answered in several ways.

hahaha I thought of Moira McTaggart from x-men... It gave me Ash Ketchum's mother... but Moira was on the list of possible others hahaha!!! But then some of my answers were a bit vague too... I wasn't 100% sure of all the questions they asked me, because I didn't know the character super-duper well! fun though! hehe

Huh. Apparently it knows about LogoMan.

I guess that answers the question of what to call it now.

Hmmm, I wonder who put logoman into the database... (honestly, I do wonder, since it wasn't me).

I stumped it with Caesar from WKC.

And again with Gaius Sextus from the Codex Alera. :)

THIS THING IS AWESOME!

Stumped it on the fourth try.
