Default Akinator

I was told about this and gave it a go.

Basically you think of a real person or fictional character and the akinator will start asking you question which you answer yes, probably yes, don't know, probably no and no. And trust me this thing is good me and my friend were at it for a solid hour and half before we stumped it.

Was relatively close with mine, guessed Saladin whilst i was thinking about Suleiman the Magnificent but mine was quite obscure, still good fun!

It's like the game in Inglorious Basterds.

LOL! That is so funny! I had Gregory Rasputin and Asterix in my mind and he guessed them both. Asterix even sooner than I expected. What a huge database they must have...

Funny game. He guessed Randy Moss, LaDainian Tomlinson and Donovan MacNabb.

I was thinking of Torry Holt.

I beat the game! Woohoo!

I didn't get Monty Roberts (the horse whisper) it guessed Mark Cuban, then Stephen King, and finally Fred Couples (golfer) before it gave up.

Must be an enormous database though - when I entered the name of who I was searching for it already had it listed in 5 slightly different ways.

Realy impressive. The database even has Maurice Richard (a Ice Hockey Player) It took over 20 questions but it found it.

I like the question: Has your character ever done anything bad to a member of his family?

I used to play that game all the time with my brothers while on a long car ride.

Creepy.

It got GRR Martin, Jon Snow, Upsy-Daisy, Shani Davis, Tuvok right within twenty questions!

But instead of Khal Drogo it came with Rhaegar Targaryen, the brother of his wife. And I totally beat it with Degra, Xindi leader from Star Trek Enterprise...
