How's this one work????
 
A game..you think of any famous character, answer questions honestly, and the swami guesses who. I fooled it only once...thought of Hurley H., it said I was thinking Mark Martin. My other 3 plays it guessed right.

Akinator on mobile (iPhone, Android, Blackberry, Windows Phone 7...)

Fail! Thought of Billy Gibbons... Finally it picked Eddie Van Halen. :D

Maybe I should ask who our one ball, er star, man is...

Stumped it with Vic Elford

The more famous the character, the fewer questions it asks...somebody spent a lot of time writing the program for this.

Process of elimination.

Got him with Canadion cyclist, Olympic silver medalist Steven Bauer.

Aerkuld 07-03-2011 08:20 PM

It couldn't guess Sir Alec Issigonis either

For famous people, it pretty quickly narrows it down. Impressive.

-Z-man.

I find this fascinating. I've played more games than I'd care to admit today. It get virtually all of them and much faster than I'd expect.

Took it 17 questions to nail Jacoby Ellsbury, Red Sox center fielder....

Who, by the way, is in the all star game...1st Oregonian to do that in decades.

Beat him.

Billy Smith.

The game gives up after 60 questions.

HHI944 07-04-2011 06:18 AM

It took to question 59 for him to get Maximillian Cohen.

It uses a decision tree matrix to eliminate contenders. Lots and lots of code to make it work.

Give it a try - its quite fun. It keeps asking very general questions then asks one very specific and you can tell its on the right track.

I used Fred Sanford. That's S-A-N-F-O-R-D period

Got Johnny Carson at 20 questions. Took it almost 40 to get Clark Howard...after wrongfully guessing Warren Buffet at 20.

On 2nd try and at 25 ?'s, it nailed The Donald. At 20 it thought Glen Beck.

Danny_Ocean 07-04-2011 03:54 PM

Wow! 16 questions to guess "Jeffrey Dahmer"

(16. Does your character eat people?)

gornas 07-06-2011 12:12 AM
