That is quite clever! It got Michael Schumacher and Hedwig!!
Edit - I'm addicted now - just got Melman, and I didn't think it was going to.
AND Ayanami Rei from Evangelion on the second guess, and that's only beause I had to answer 'i don't know' to a few questions.
I did Bob Monkhouse and Billy Connolly.
It just got Robert Kubica (F1 driver) and the last question it asked me was 'is your character a puppet?', which is random as I knew it had got it because it asked about F1 and Poland etc!
It just got the Queen too.
It got Billy the Kid :eek:

Didn't guess Adrian Newey.
I thought it had it after it said Ross Brawn and when I said no, it asked if he was associated with the colour red...
It then said Ron Dennis... *eh?!*
It got Dr House (as soon as it asked if the character name was in the title and were drugs involved I knew it would guess right)
I clicked fairley randomly and it found fearne cotton... I like her radio show, and was thinking about her earlier when I tuned into radio 1... Does that count? :)
It didn't get Archbishop Makarios III. :cool:
Didn't guess Adrian Newey.

Well it works based on other peoples previous answers, so someone has told it that before.
All you have to do to beat it is pick someone sufficiently random that hardly anyone else will have tried it before and so isn't in the database :p
Man it's good.
Mr. Spock
Kenny Everett
Vinnie Jones
Rory Gilmore
All got

Woah, just got Jay Cutler in 16 goes ( top bodybuilder )
Didn't get some of the delightfully random characters I tried (such as Minuteman and Microwave from "Freedom Force").. but had them in it's database.
It did seem to fairly easily guess Martian Manhunter.
Totally failed to get Nicholas Soames. Seems to totally forget some previous questions. "Are they involved in Politics" (yes) then a few questions later decided I was talking about Sir James Galway (the man with the Golden Flute)

I've noticed that it's starting to struggle, I think the database has got too large.
LMF did one yesterday that I'd done before. For me it took around ten guesses but for her it was nearly thirty.
Sorry, I need some time to wake up. Can you try again in a few minutes?
Lazy Genie! ;D
I couldn't believe it got Hiro Nakamura!!! :o
Or Pierre Elliot Trudeau. :confused:
