Took him 58 questions and two wrong calls to find out Sugar Ray Robinson. Suggested Joe Louis and Jack Johnson first.

Tried the Driver from Drive but it guessed Lestat from Interview from the Vampire
edit: Oh it continues on. Asked more questions and guessed somebody named Parker? Looks like a comic book character.
....Well it took 88 questions but it did finally make the correct guess.

Tried Captain Francis Crozier of the HMS Terror but he guessed Tom Crean & Blackbeard instead. Suck it, Akinator. Tho to be fair, Tom Crean was a pretty close guess

OH I'M SORRY, DID I OVERLOAD YOUR LOGIC CIRCUITS, TIN MAN
I was thinking of an original character from my NaNoWriMo idea, sucka.
Okay, let's try this.
Round one: Dark Pit.
Didn't get it on the first shot, but picked up the spare. When it started asking "Does your character have wings?" and "Is your character a copy of another person?" I kind of knew it had him.
Round two: Tiki (From Fire Emblem)
Well this was fun, it guessed Nowi. Well this was kind of mean, really. "Is your character linked with dragons?" "Is it from a Nintendo Game?" "Is it from the Fire Emblem series?" "Does your character have green hair?" "Is your character more than 50 years old?" Yes to all, and yes it covers both of them. Then it guessed all over the place before coming back to Tiki.
Okay, fine. Time to get serious. Akinator I dare you to find...
Final round: Dobkeratops (First boss from R-Type)
Victory! 80 questions in and I win!
Take that Akinator! You may know your angels and dragons (at least on the second attempt), but I know an alien you did not. And that thing is like everywhere in the R-Type games and on the cover art. Obscure, kind of, R-Type is not the biggest name in gaming anymore, but it's named, so it counts.

I wanted to see how fast he would get Jesus. I had to answer some of them I don't know but I was finally asked if the character had white skin, and of course I said no. He guessed 'black jesus' which seems odd.

I think he's gotten worse over the years as his popularity has risen and people have added tons to his database.
I tried to reproduce the french taunter, but instead got
and I was even asked if he was french! what the hell
and in the way I got
I am starting to think akinator's knowledge base has gotten just too big and it's asking dumb things. I also got asked if he was from an all boys kpop band????

he just got shep ramsey from suburban commando, and I'm pretty sure i was lying about some of the answers.
I had it ask if the R-Type boss had ever appeared in the Eurovision Song Contest. You know, after answering no to it having legs, yes to it being able to breathe in space, and no to it being human, I just have to wonder sometimes... On the other hand, if Dobkeratops entered the Eurovision Song Contest, it probably wouldn't stick out from the crowd that much.
It probably just asks a few completely random questions once it's sure of who it is. To harvest answers for later use.
I think the problem is that it has to deal with people answering wrong, and the "probably" "probably not" answers, so it has to do that.
There must be a bunch of characters with double nationality so that's why he must ask whether people are american and then if they are british, etc etc.

He can't think of Frank from Once Upon a Time in the West. He thinks of The Bad instead.
