Akinator

This thing is pretty interesting. Basically it plays 20 Questions - or how many it takes - with you to try and figure out what character you're thinking of. With me, it's gotten everyone I've tried it with - Phoenix Wright, Zack Ryder, Jacques Portsman, Chris Jericho and Stan Smith - albeit with some it took it awhile and got a few wrong guesses, but it figured them all out eventually.

Ah, the Akinator... The only ones he couldn't guess were MCs without names. :XD:

God, this thing's a genius! I tried William Riker, Seven of Nine and the Doctor, and it got them all! :shock:

EDIT: But it failed to get Chakotay! :twisted:

He won with Adrian. He also got Excitebike Rider and Penny Nichols (With extra questions). But I beat him with Polly The Parrot, in fact, I had to introduce her to him.

Akinator has been defeated. Twice. Once with Espada from Monster Rancher Battle Card Episode II, and once with Adrian Andrews. But it got Franziska, Rick the Adventure Sphere, it even got Nicollo from Legend of Mana.
since 2008!

It knows a lot of anime characters too...
I first started off easy (Light Yagami) and then went to more challenging ones (Iwakura Lain, Johann Liebert) until I was at side characters (Seta Soujirou, Ogata Seiji). I was wondering if thought of some Shinsengumi members which obviously appear in many animes from which one it'd pick it or would it take it from real life? Well, the answer was Peacemaker Kurogane (Okita Souji), real life (Hijikata Toshizo), Shinsengumi Hakuoki Kitan (Toudou Heisuke) but for some reason I just couldn't get Harada Sanosuke... Well, when I checked and it seems that Akinator knew Harada Sanosuke from Hakuoki and Sagara Sanosuke from Rurouni Kenshin (based on Harada Sanosuke) but not the historical figure.

Oh, and of course it got Izaya (and Mikado, Masaomi, Anri, Shinra, Kadota, Togusa and Shizuo too) right on the first try. It needed a second guess for Celty, Erika and Walker though...

Lol, I got a question "Is your character from Finland?" when I tried to get Kadota ...do we have so many famous characters that it gets its own question..?

This thing is amazing. It's gotten Edgeworth, John Marston, Ema, Zelos Wilder, (The latter two with a couple of extra questions, but...) AND LOTUS FROM 999 HOLY CRAP! I was SHOCKED when it got that one.

EDIT: Annnnnd it just got Sniper Wolf. Wow. I'M GOING TO BEAT THIS THING!

EDIT2: It just got Saya from Highschool of the Dead... (In one try!) I'm amazed.

EDIT3: It got Matt Engarde, Mew, Escher from Chaos Rings... but I finally beat him! I got to introduce him to Griff Vao from Knights of the Old Republic.

...What the..? It knows a great number of Finnish politicians too...!? One, Two, Three... 4, 5, 6, 7..! It knows more of them than I do!

EDIT: Continuing with the side characters of Durarara!!... Yagiri Namie, Hijiribe Ruri, Heiwajima Kasuka, Orihara Mairu, Orihara Kururi, Kuronuma Aoba... It got them all right with the first guess... Yagiri Seiji and Harima Mika took pretty long though...

Ah, I've tried this thing before. I beat him a few times too. Let's see if he's gotten any better... I'll use Linda from Death Note. :fran:

If your character is Akinator himself, but you keep denying it, you can find some interesting information...

He figured out both Decoy Octopus AND Soda Popinski.

That is really impressive.
