He guessed Rorshach from Watchmen and Lewis Hamilton in around 14 questions.

Paul Bonhomme confused him though  8-)

Ditto, which is 25% of the time, not 99%. He did not get Allan Quatermain from The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Lash Larue, fifties tv western, Maynard G. Krebbs from Dobey Gillis. He did get Joel Fleschman (sp?) from Northern Exposure.

Got every cartoon character I tried, even a couple lesser known. :-/

Got every last one wrong when it came to casts of old westerns...not even remotely close :P

He got Master Yoda, which was a pretty easy guess I think...

But it failed pretty bad on Old Butterbur, the innkeeper from Bree from LOTR. (he guessed Tom Bombadil, which was somewhat close)

He failed on Dejah Thoris, Princess of Barsoom, but got pretty close (the name was on the list)

Pretty cool!! I love these things

I stumped him with Freeman Lowell from the film Silent Running (played by Bruce Dern).
He made 4 guesses, then gave up.

But the problem is that he apparently asks about the character and the actor who plays the character without specifically referring to one or the other.

As far as I'm concerned, if he keeps saying "character" I'm going to assume the question is about the character, not the actor.   ;D

It got Freddie Mercury, Obi-Wan Kenobi, could not get Doyle Lonnegan (Robert Shaw) from The Sting, got Victor Frankenstein, got Michael Scott from The Office, got Darth Vader or Anakin Skywalker from Star Wars:D

I have an electronic handheld game like this called 20 Questions, but it does more than people.

Pretty fun. It guessed correctly Papa Smurf, Wonderwoman, Stalin, Darius Rucker (Hootie and the Blowfish), Amy Lee, and Emilie Autumn.

It certainly has a good database!

Took "him" thirty questions to get to Chuck Yeager. Yup, just like the hand held "20Q". Pretty fun.

Sometimes it's actually us that make the mistakes in defining our character... if you click 'Details' after it gets one right, you can see all the questions you got and the answer it was expecting... it's pretty hard to get a character with all answers right, but apparently it has some way of correcting it and still getting it right...

Quite cool and addictive... I've been coming back to this post to play again almost every day (sad, I know)   :D

Cheers
