    Anyone notice Ireland's hilarious reputation on this thing?

    The question "Is your character Irish" followed by "Is your character a politician" is almost always followed by one of the following:
    "Is your character associated with bombs"
    or
    "Has your character been accused of any crimes?"

    :D:D:D

    It must use your IP to ask is your character Irish?

    It got Superted and Phil Mitchell but not Guiseppe Conlon


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,572 ✭✭✭WeeBushy


    "Is your character the son of god?" Yes

    Is your character African-American?

    More interestingly, however, is the fact that the question "Did this character govern a country"? (to which I replied yes) was proceeded by "Is your character an elephant"?

    Barbar?

    Akuuuuuuuu!

    It took him a load of questions though, the stupid prick.

    I did it again and he got it wrong. I was thinking Diogenes and he said Aristotle. HAH!

    Damn he got him after a while... that's crazy, the questions are very general. They must be using things like "X is popular" or "people who say Y usually think of X" rather than just narrowing down facts about the person themselves.

    I just beat him, introduced him to a new fellow! ho ho!

    Beat him again with Randy M.Green from Guardian Heroes.

  • Registered Users Posts: 3,674 ✭✭✭Faith+1


    Bloody hell it got Bobby from Sons of Anarchy in only 12 questions :eek:


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,778 ✭✭✭up for anything


    Gretl from the Sound of Music. I didn't even know her name and he did! :eek:


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,500 ✭✭✭✭DEFTLEFTHAND


    That's amazing, What Sorcery is this? I thought of Harry Bosch a character in a book I started reading this evening.

    paul mc grath on first go


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 4,290 ✭✭✭mickydoomsux


    Maybe i'm just picking obvious characters but this thing is spookily accurate.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 4,290 ✭✭✭mickydoomsux


    I don' know how this works, i presume a simple flowchart of logic gates but it has been 100% correct for the 15 or so people of varying fame that i've thrown at it including characters from books and movies.

    Lol, thought i had it beaten with "veronica mars" and then on the 15th question it just turns around and asks me "Is the character Veronica Mars?"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,300 ✭✭✭HazDanz


    It got Doug Funnie and Shigeru Miyamoto when I tried it there. Respect.

    Edit: It just got the postman from the Legend of Zelda series.


  • Site Banned Posts: 1,856 ✭✭✭paddy kerins


    The Man from The Road and Inanimate Carbon Rod. How the f?

    I beat it thrice though :cool:

    It can!

    It got 5 right in a row, including Jeremy Kyle, Michael D & Michael Collins, but it suggested Seán (puke) Gallagher instead of David McWilliams!

    Still impressive, though!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,078 ✭✭✭Hal Emmerich


    It missed Chandler Bing on me after 21 questions, it thought I was Neill Caffrey from White Collar.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 3,571 ✭✭✭newmug


    It couldnt get Mick Lyons (former Meath footballer) or Matt Leavy (Country singer). It did get Henry Hill though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,815 ✭✭✭Private Snafu


    Finally beat the bloody thing... It couldn't handle Kerry King :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,243 ✭✭✭LighterGuy


    THAT IS FREAKY!!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,163 ✭✭✭✭Liam Byrne


    It got ALF & Sheldon from The Big Bang, as well as Danny from The Script, but was stumped with myself and my co-host! :D

    I don't think so, it tends to ask that after you say yes your character is European, and no your character isn't British.

    There's a certain element of randomness to the early question order, which is why sometimes he guesses fast and sometimes takes ages to get it right.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 4,290 ✭✭✭mickydoomsux


    It got Rosie Webster from Corrie and Sandor Clegane from ASOIAF. I'm trying to go obscure without going too local because that'll just beat it.

    It guessed MMA fighter Jason "mayhem" Miller right. And Dana White.


  • Registered Users Posts: 33 Shoki


    it guessed Tyrion Lannister from game of thrones and Horus from warhammer :o very impressed
