Step one:

Imagine an actor, actress or film / TV or video game character of your choice.

Step Two:

Answer the mans questions as they appear

he gets 20 questions to guess who you are thinking of, if he doesnt guess correctly he gets 10 more.

if he doesnt guess correctly after the additional questions, you win!

He caught Bismarck easily, took a while to spot Gustav Adolphus, but failed miserably at Albrecht von Wallenstein...

Yeah, I broke him with Josef Priller, Alan Brooke, John Cunningham, General Gort and General Weygand :rock:

Ha! And John Jellicoe! :D

Wow he's good.
Took him 15 questions, but he got it right (answer: Claudia Cardinale).

Weird how he jumped so quickly to ask if she was of Italian ancestry.

Nice find! =)

I beat him. :haha: And introduced Florian Geyer to him.

Well, i beat him this time, we was getting close though. After 20 questions he guessed Greta Garbo.
I was thinking of Ingrid Bergman (which he got right after 30 questions).
He won against me when i chose David Attenborough (pardon me, SIR D. Attenborough).

Some he gets alot faster then expected, as of now i thought of the characters Tobias Funke and G.O.B (from the superb comedy series Arrested Devlopment, a show i highly recommend btw), and he got those two in around 10 questions and 20 questions respectively.

He's good on Soviet leaders... :damn: He's got Gorby, Andropov and Brezhnev :damn:

Not so good on other Soviets, I got him on Gorshkov and Chernavin! :D

I foxed him with Colonel Douglas Mortimer :rock: He almost got it, he guessed The Man with no name...right films, wrong character!

He didn't get Clara Bow, and he never even heard of Buddy Rogers. Well, he has now!


On the other hand, it took him about 15 questions to guess Thomas Paine.

And he got John Marshall on his very last try!

He got Sam Vimes and the Librarian from Discworld.

But he couldn't get der Alte from Das Boot. His guesses were Janek Kos (I think that's what it was), Colonel Klink, and some dude who tried to assassinate Hitler.

Gotland
02-24-10, 01:19 PM
He got Buddy Holly and Jack Lemmon right :DL
But he failed James Stewart (incorrectly guessing Robert DeNiro after 20q, Charlton Heston 30q and Gregory Peck 40q).

GoldenRivet
02-24-10, 01:36 PM
he guessed correctly:

Alien (from alien movie 1979)

Predator (from fox pictures)

Space marine (from the 'Aliens' movie)

Zoey, Coach, Louis (characters from left 4 dead)

John Wayne

Paul Tibbets

Adolf Hitler

Arnold Schwarzenegger

Patton

Cowboy Bebop (Japanese anime)

Dexter (dexter's Lab)

Didi (Dexter's lab)

Drew Barrymore

Adam Sandler

ZED (FROM THE MOVIE ZARDOZ) :o:o:o:o

Michael "squints" palledorious (from the movie 'sandlot')

Joel (from mystery science theater 3,000)

Johnny Five (from Short Circuit films)

Robocop

Akinator (himself)

HAL 9000 (2001 space odyssey)

and about a dozen others i cant think of right now

I only stumped him on a few... but i think thats because i was unsure of certain info and clicked "i dont know" on several questions in a row

I remember playing with that guy sth like 1,5 year ago. He was much faster. Now when his database is much bigger he sometimes stucks on one question or gives you it several times. But still he rox :D

Stumped the bugger on 2nd go with Frank Sinatra. He got Peter Lorre in 30 questions.

02-25-10, 06:37 AM
I gave him trouble on ''Oni''

he did get after 30 questions ''Motoko Kusanagi'' from the Anime Ghost in a Shell where the game was heavily influenced by.
and the characters look the same.

10 more questions and he got the right answer ''Oni''

pretty good.

He knows his anime...

Tribesman
02-25-10, 07:14 AM
The first guess was David Brent, but it eventually got Captain Mainwaring.

02-25-10, 08:23 AM

Popeye got the bugga :smug:

Dowly
02-25-10, 01:49 PM
Haha, he's good. :haha:

Guessed Ellen Ripley(aliens), Joker (DK one) & Arnie from Total Recall.

Oh come on the tosser guessed even Kate Winslet from Titanic, even if I tried to mislead it at times.

EDIT: Hah, got him with the black chick from Scary Movies (propably answered most of his questions wrong as I really dont know anything about her :O:).

FIREWALL
02-25-10, 01:53 PM
He's good. :yep: But I nailed him with GORT. :know:

Oberon
02-25-10, 01:58 PM
What, Earth stood Still Gort?

Odd because that IS in his database because when I gave him General Gort, the 'I have similar names in my database' bit had Gort from The Day the Earth Stood Still in it. :hmmm:

FIREWALL
02-25-10, 02:05 PM
Yes and he didn't get it. Just plain GORT from TDTESS.

He knew Wallenstein too, but I gave it to him several times (And double-checked the info) and he never even got him in his table of other possibilities that he gives you after you tell him he was wrong.

I think he has wrong or missing data about some people/characters...

02-25-10, 02:10 PM
He couldn't get Lothar-Gunther Buchheim. Wasn't even in the list of "characters" he knew. Well, it is now. :O:

Dowly
02-25-10, 02:30 PM
He couldn't get Lothar-Gunther Buchheim. Wasn't even in the list of "characters" he knew. Well, it is now. :O:

Maybe because Buchheim hasn't acted or been characterised in any movie? :haha: (No, Werner is Werner. :03:)

Or has he? The hell I know.

EDIT: Ow wait, nevermind. I'm a blind mother****er.

02-25-10, 02:32 PM
I thought it was any real or fictional person?

Yeh, noticed that too after I had posted. Tho, it does seem to concentrate more on characters from films, telly and games. :hmmm:

Nowhere near when it came to 'Tojo' :know:

Just got him with Jason Bourne.
Askinator thought it was Jason Statham.

Mind you, he got 7 right in a row before that.
