It's actually funny, for about 15 questions, he asked unrelated stuff (is he american, is he fat, is he european/asian/indian) then he asked "Did he appear in a trilogy" and "is his hair silver" and I think that sealed it.

Also, Bruce McClane in 20. And without asking "is he bald"

He got Gunther Hermann within 20.

Ha ha, stumped him with Morpheus.

Seriously the questions need tidying up.

Is this character a member of your family?

- Yes.

Is he an animal?

- Yes.

Can he cook?

- What.

Harbinger in 20. He'd guessed he was from Bioware in about 10.

I'm scared.

EDIT: It got Legion in 18. Right when the Saren's theme part of "Legion" from the OST kicked in.

Brucie?

Don't we already have an Akinator thread?

I stumped him one time, but I forgot with which character.

[up][up]

Collins, human 1) n An animal is a living creature such as a dog, lion, or rabbit, rather than a bird, fish, insect, or human being. He was attacked by wild animals... He had a real knowledge of animals, birds and flowers.

2) n Any living creature other than a human being can be referred to as an animal. Language is something which fundamentally distinguishes humans from animals. ...a habitat for plants and animals.

3) n Any living creature, including a human being, can be referred to as an animal.

Let us play the connotation game, shall we?

We had an Akinator thread in Yack Fest ages ago, but it probably got cut.

And the reason the questions can be pretty random is because the system learns what people answered every time it gave up and asked them who it was. So sometimes they'll be completely irrelevant. But every question gets it closer.

A brighter future for a darker age.

Akinator...

Before I was but a toy for you, a sad little internet lurker into games thought to be obscure and unknown but not really.

Now you are the toy.

Three consecutive victories with:

EDIT: Yeah, I made, like, the second Akinator thread. So it has all come full circle. How the mighty have fallen.

Nao Kanzaki in 30. He has incorrect data on her. Despite what he thinks, she is linked to hospitals (her father's in one), which is one of the things that delayed his answer. Also what the fuck is up with him asking "Is your character Japanese" and then turning around and asking if she's Thai like five questions later?

Stumped him with Aya from Devil Survivor. Granted she never is actually seen, is dead, and only related to Gin and Haru, but she's there.

The thing about making witty signature lines is that it first needs to actually be witty.

Seriously its logic is sometimes surprising

Does he cook?

Is he confident?

...

20): Does he appear in Pokemon animated series?

I think if he's already figured it out, he just asks random questions as filler.

(This actually happened in this order. I swear I am not exagerating)

  • Is your character real
    • Yes
  • Is your character a woman?
    • Yes
  • Is your character a porn actor?
    • Yes
  • Does your character have two tails?
    • ... What?
  • Does your character have a goatee?
    • ... You are into some weird shit.
  • Is your character a member of the Nazi Party?
    • ... Weird and offensive too.
