    20 Questions

    I don't know if this has been posted before (did a search and found nothing), but I think this site is great. I'd say the AI guesses right 95% of the time.

    Frick, it got Spike from Buffy on the 20th question.
    "It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

    "You'll not find more penny-wise/pound-foolish behavior than in Major League Baseball." - Rob Neyer

      I thought of Shawshank Redemption but for some reason it kept asking me questions relating to people, on the 26th question it guessed Tim Robbins, which he was in the movie but not really what I was going with.

        It depends on which one you do. I've found the "Classic" version to be more accurate. Some, like the movie or music ones, are works in progress at the moment.

        So far, it's guessed:

        Island,
        Row Boat,
        Paper Clip,
        Scooter,
        Cd Case,
        Picture Frame,
        Umbrella,
        Frisbee,
        T-Rex,
        Barenaked Ladies (The Band),
        Scotch Tape,
        Koala Bear,
        Snow,
        Skiing,
        Snow-Plow,
        Power Plant,
        Rain Forest,
        iPod,
        Steering Wheel
        Football Team
        Cymbals

        Guessed Wrong:
        Mouse (Computer)
        Egypt
        Trombone
        Alien

          Re: 20 Questions

          It got Cheetah on the 26th guess.

          I messed up a few times on the answers, though.

            The questions it was asking were kinda iffy...I'd be thinking of a TV show character and it'd be asking me other weird questions....

              It got cheetah after 17 questions the second time through when I actually thought about the answers.

                I won. My answer was Ted Johnson (former Patriot player) and the only players it guessed were Steve Young, Bill Romanowski and Ed McCaffery.

                  I doubt it knows who Ted Johnson is.

                    Were you doing Sports?

                    In Classic, I just did Football Team and it got in on the 16th guess.

                      Exactly why I picked it.

                      I also picked Say Anything and it took them 29 times.

                        Yeah I just tried some of them its pretty solid, 27 to get Snow Patrol, 25 for James Worthy, 22 for Stephen Hawking, it got Heroes, Battlestar Galactica, and Kate Beckinsale in under 20.

                        Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.

                        Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.

                          It got Keifer Sutherland in 18. THis thing isn't too bad at all.

                            It incorrectly guessed Brad Pitt, but perhaps saying "No" on him being relatively young threw it off, especially since it guessed names like Humphrey Bogart.

                            Then it got Barry Bonds and Hugh Laurie correct.

                            This is fun.

                              It got Bonds for me in 12 tries.

                              This really is fun.
