Default Akinator, the Web genius

This is awesome, for now it guessed Akinotor's (his) mom, Jimmy Page, Fran Drescher and Josef Fritzl. Now I'm gonna try some more, really fun stuff!

HAH! It had no idea I was thinking of Robert Normann. It suggested Béla Bartók o_O

But I did get a nice congratulation upon beating it


EDIT: YAY! 2-0 to me! It wasn't Sibelius, but Grieg.

EDIT 3-0! No, it's not James Joyce, but Henrik Ibsen...

This guy is just GUESSING!

The only one it missed for me was Charles Manson.

He got Vic Mackey, Saul Tigh and Super Mario from the fictional characters.

Yeah he missed all of the cast from The Shield except Vic Mackey, but there are a lot of TV characters that are similar so I don't blame him. :P

Ok, it got Gro Harlem Brundtland and Rasputin right. Back to the obscure ones then.

I challenged him with my favourite 'Bobbin Threadbare' and he came up with 'Simon the Sorcerer'. Not too bad, I'd say.

Great site, btw.

Wow, really nice! Hard to beat! I won with these:
Paul Atreides, he said Leonidas
John Connor, he said Indiana Jones

He won with Strelok from STALKER

Let's try other...

Close, but not quite. I was thinking of The Nameless One from Planescape: Torment. He guessed the Nameless Hero from Gothic.

Wow, I went for Minsc from Baldur's Gate and the bastard guessed it!!! "Does your character have a hamster?"

It did not know Robert Foster (Beneath A Steel Sky) though.
