[scared?]

[MKJ]

james sunderland, i thought that was pretty obscure.

this is quite the party trick


nerdmode, looks like this thing is based on a wiki. pretty nifty.

[werldhed]

Meh.

It failed to get Ira Flatow.


But it did get d'Artagnan, which was impressive (as it was asking me if he was an Anime character right before it guessed. lolwut?)

[bitWISE]

Got D'Argo from Farscape

[seremtan]

how the fuck did it get Holden Caulfield??!111

[werldhed]

the questions leading up to Flying Spaghetti Monster...

"Is your character associated w/ food?"
"does your character fly?"


Also, credit for getting The Stig, Methuselah, and Scheherazade.


edit: seems to be better at getting fictional characters than real people. Either that, or it doesn't know radio hosts. It failed with Carl Kasell. And Rosalind Franklin.

[bitWISE]

God:
has your character been played by more than one actor?
is your character white?
is your character male?


gtfo, it figured out Boxxy.....

[Nightshade]

[ToxicBug]

[Peenyuh]

H.I. McDonnough (Raising Arizona)

AW, COME ON!!!!

[EtUL]

Couldn't get Ernie Pyle, and it asked if it was female 3 times :/

I imagine it works great for most people not willing to think of someone fairly obscure. Really, the list of characters and people that most users would think of should be fairly small.

[Peenyuh]

H.I. McDonnough?! Not obscure?



Edit. It got me. I was thinking of me. I am obscure.

[Mat Linnett]

Been reading a lot of R. E. Howard recently and beat him with Solomon Kane.

Edit: Bloody hell, it got Raskolnikov mind you!

[YourGrandpa]

It didn't guess radio talk show host Bubba The Love Sponge, but he was listed in the group of names at the end.

[Doombrain]

Bubba The Love Sponge

Oddly... that makes sense.

[Captain]

It couldn't guess Vitruvius, Hippodamus of Miletus, or Xerxes.

But it guessed Miikka Kiprusoff, Erwin Rommel, Roger Waters, and Mika Hakkinen. Pretty awesome

[+JuggerNaut+]

got Lester Knight Chaykin after approx 28 questions. pretty impressive!
