Fuck Right off......................................
 
Holy fucking shit i was thinking there is no way in hell he is going to guess that i am Thinking of Luca Blight, and was proven wrong before i could complete the thought.

It's easy to beat by going with something more obscure, but it's fun to see the process it takes to get something easy. Like with Willow from Buffy, I know he's on the right track when he asks "Does your character rub shoulders with vampires?" then check TV, then asks for hair colour to rule out Buffy, then asks for magical powers for Willow.

Yeah I beat him easily using not well known women that take naked pictures of themselves.

Boxxy did not appear in Playboy, wtf! Oh 4chan! :lol
 
Every time he got one I was compelled to balance it out, but still not to use anything too obscure.

Didn't get:
Promethea (comics)
Chuck Tatum (Ace in the Hole) - First person to try it too.
Little Mac
Manny Calavera
Space Invader
Barry Lyndon
Oscar Wilde
Prospero - not really fair
Steerpike (Gormenghast) - REALLY tough
Roger Penrose - Also tough, especially for the anime/videogame fans playing this.


Got
Alan Moore - I do not know how, the questions seemed a million miles away)
Jade (BGE)
Stanley Kubrick
Vito Corleone - Too easy
Duster from Mother 3 - Wow
The Doctor - Is your character a doctor? :lol
Judas
Alyx Vance
Big Brother
Frank Zappa - it seems if he can get the general place you'd find the character in the early questions he'll get it
Rory Gallagher

It's interesting to look at the details and see where you differ from popular consensus (even when they are factually wrong).
 
Ha ha, beat him first try. Take that Genie! Figure out who Uta-Napishtim is!

Of course everytime someone plays the game, and beats the genie, you end up building its information slots...

Didn't get Roland or Calypso either.

As its mind absorbs every celebrity, athlete, artist, politician, fictional character, and porn star, there will be no way to beat this thing.
 
Guessed Mike Portnoy and Napoleon Bonaparte. I thought it would probably get both of those judging by the results people are getting. I'll see if I can think of something a little more obscure.

Gee, I wonder why he's so good at obscure video game and anime characters, and so bad at literature...

I stumped him several times in a row with pretty famous characters (he can't get Macbeth? Seriously?).

I weep for humanity. At least the humanity on the interweb.

edit: no Doris Lessing either.

Well in my case, after two tries, he managed to get the protagonist of Front Mission 3.

Even I don't know the fucking name! I bet you don't either!

Holy hell, I think 19 out of 20 questions were completely irrelevant, and he nailed it.

Nerds represent.

I got that answer when I was going for Duncan Idaho.

It's literature database is weaker than its internet knowledge. I found out that Dragona already existed.
 
I stumped it with Gob Bluth, but it was close. His name appeared in the list once it was over.

It managed to get Harvey Birdman, I wasn't expecting it at all.
 
It guessed Tim Heidecker. His questions didn't even seem close.

Stumped him on one of Tim's characters though, but thats probably cheating.
 
He started out strong, he got JCVD and Bill cosby, but he couldnt get Zach Morris, Bulletproof, Cindy Crawford, and a few more.
 
He guessed Elaine Benes and Papas (DQV), but I beat him with Patton Oswalt, Mola Ram, and Shinya Arino (though he did guess Takahashi Meijin).

That last one was weird. "Is your character Japanese?" >Yes "Is your character Brazilian?"

Damn, he even guessed me. :lol His guess was "You!!" with a picture of a monkey. :lol

Got me on Tobias Funke from Arrested Development and Antoine Cighur from No Country for Old Men.

It didn't get me with Mr. X from Layer Cake or Carth Onassi from KOTOR.

I tried Samus, he didn't get it. Gave me a seven of nine answer... After he asked about space and fighting and video games I thought he would've gotten it...

edit: he did get derrick rose though.

Has problems recognising girls
Having a character that is well known to a certain extent and not completely obscure is definitely a way to have correct guesses. Clear cut yes and no answers help too I suppose.

Anyone can literally beat it but it's more fun to think of a random somewhat famous person/character and have it guessed correctly.
