Fun time-wasters

[Enail]

I don't usually find these kinds of things that fun, but Akinator is pretty entertaining when you've got a few minutes to kill, it's an algorithm that tries to guess the character or famous person you're thinking of with yes/no questions. It's very good at it! I managed to stump it, but it was pretty impressive how well it could get most things.

Took to the second guess for it to get "Michael Burnham."

God dammit, they got "Kiriyama Rei" on the second guess too.

Okay, third time's the charm. Ken The Eagle from Science Ninja Team Gatchaman.

FUCK, they got first time

OG Harrison Wells from The Flash.

First time in the shortest time possible (even got the right Harrison Wells)

Okay you shit-fucker. El Toro Blanco, Rush, from Mexican Lucha Libre.

Ha, got AJ Styles and Kenny Omega (both Bullet Club leaders), Super Crazy (close, Mexican luchador with similar hair), Pentagon Jr (CERO MIEDO but no), and I won, suck it internet

Man, I didn't have any that they took only 2 guesses, most of mine went up to 15 at least! I managed to win with Brent Spiner, I think it got confused by the fact that he's released a musical album.

Oh no, I mean the whole shebang made two character guesses, the amount of questions were a lot except for Wells

[Enail]

Oh, okay, whew, I was worried it had learned from its encounters with me and was about three steps away from taking over the world.

Hah! I picked a character he couldn't guess. Luterin Shokerandit, the protagonist from Helliconia Winter (which I'm currently re-reading for the fourth time).

It took two guesses to get both Strong Bad and Slappy Squirrel, so I tried to think of something more obscure.

I went with Count Vile from Press Start Adventures and it didn't find him.

[Hielario]

Oooh, nice, and it only took two guesses to arrive to Bast from "The name of the wind" (Bomb-ass book!)

Ah, I remember a couple of years back trying to teach Akinator to recognise Mattie Storin from the British House of Cards. It's still got my entry in the database, but doesn't get there on the questions (and it got Prior Phillip on the first guess, which impressed me)

I think you need just to give it time
