Yeah, there's probably about 80 gazillion '20 questions' like programs on the internets, this is just one of them. To those who are not aware of 20 Questions, it's a little gadget that would ask you questions about a certain place, animal, person, or thing. After the 20 Questions were done, it would then guess what it was you were thinking of, like a mind reader.
This is pretty much the same thing, but I think this one only does people or creatures, but don't quote me on that. One of the most delightful things about this thing is that once it nails down an question it's sure is linked to the character you're thinking of, he'll go on to say even more questions that link perfectly along with your character, along with the picture of the genie on the right of the page changing his expression to a more confident feel.
However, as you might has guessed, it does have some flaws. I was trying to get it to guess Leon from the Resident Evil series, and it did end up coming with a character from that series (infact it asked me the question "was your character created by Capcom?"), but it wasn't Leon. After that it somehow came up with a character from CoD, and finally Duke Nukem'. But for the most part, it's pretty amusing.

Here's one of my guesses. The character I was thinking of was Gordon Freeman.
Quote
Genie: Has your character really existed? (No)
Genie: Does your character fight? (Yes)
Genie: Does your character use guns? (Yes)
Genie: Is your character American (Probably)
Genie: Is your character from a videogame? (Yes)
*Around this point is where he starts to nail down some questions*
Genie: Does your character fight against monsters? (Yes)
Genie: Has your character fought aliens? (Yes)
Genie: Is your character a military man? (No)
Genie: Does your character have a beard? (Yes)
Genie: Is your character a scientist? (Yes)
Genie: Does your character wear glasses? (Yes)
Genie: Does your character wear a hat? (No)
Genie: I think of.......Gordon Freeman? (Yes)
He's actually pretty good.
He got Solid Snake,
Mario,
King Arthur,
William Wallace,
and Frosty the Snowman (I don't know how he got this or William Wallace, holy hell!)
I went with Megaman, and he gave me Dick Gumshoe from Phoenix Wright... then I clicked "No" and he asked 3 more questions that were spot on and got Megaman, that is awesome.

How in the hell did he manage that?
How did he manage to give me Dick Gumshoe, or then go on to know it was exactly Megaman?
Either way, after I clicked it wasn't Dick Gumshoe, he was like "Is it a robot?", "Does he wear a helmet?" and one other I forgot (probably something to do with his weapons).
He got donkey kong even after I misled him! HOLYYYYYYYYYYYY SHIT it got Niko Belic, I never saw it guessing that.
Edit 2:
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW it guessed Nathan Drake!!! This thing is amazing!
Edit 3:
it got Quote from cave story AND Iji!
He got Shaka Zulu.(Scottys made me think of him from deadliest warrior)
It hasn't been wrong yet...and get this...IT GOT ZOEY FROM LEFT 4 DEAD. I think I love this thing!
EDIT: OH MY SWEET JESUS! It got Ellis from Left 4 Dead 2! This is AMAZING! Have my babies Genie!
Also...I tried to make it guess Ghost from Modern Warefare 2....and it failed. It guessed:
Johnny "Akiba" Sasaki (Metal Gear)
BUT if you compare him to Ghost:

They look almost identical. Heh.
It couldn't get Luneth from the DS remake of FFIII. Then again, FF wikipedia didn't help me much there.
It got Mike Tyson, Mario, Bowser, Billy Mays, Master Chief, Coach from Left 4 Dead 2 (On his 2nd try), Duke Nukem, and Eddy from Ed, Edd, n Eddy (3rd try, lol). Pretty cool and fun!
Its good. Really good! It got a lot of stuff. So i tried out a stick online for fun and it gave me Mokujin. :P just for fun.
I'm surprised it got fassad and shaycarl! :D
I did trip it up with paper mario's "goombario".
One time it asked me if my character was black then it asked me if it had white skin. And on a different guy it asked me twice if my charter wore gloves. @_@
I did my self and it came up with "your clone" XD
This is really cool! It got Shane dawson at first try, and than kevjumba at 3rd try :) OMg it got ashley spinelli from "Recess" at the first try! This IS a geinus!

It got the slime from maple story!
This thing is way too good.
Pretty good, It guessed mine in in 20 questions.. It was Jack Ryan.
I got the Kool-Aid Man first try.
I tried shaycarl, but it got Tourette guy, after that, it got it right.
I also kept clicking no to see what happen, and it came up with. "Someone who kept clicking No to see what happens"
This thing is pretty fancy.
It is pretty damn good. It got Trilby from Chzo Mythos, Yusei from Yugioh 5D's, Quote from Cave Story...

I was like LUL.
Clicking YES all of the time comes up with "Some Guy Who Always Press Yes"
But it got Desmond Miles on a second try. However, one of the questions were "Is your character a porn actor?".
IT GUESSED WEEGEE AND PEDOBEAR! WTF!?
It got the Black Knight, but I trumped it with the Old Man from Scene 24! Ha!
Holy Jesus, I don't even watch Japanese Anime and couldn't even really describe this character well, but he guessed Parn from Record Of Lodoss War.
He got Marley the dog from "Marley and Me"
He even got Bibendum (didn't even know he had a name) from the Michelin Tire commercials!
He even got "Thing" from The Adams Family (second try, might have been my fault though)!
Got the Trix rabbit,
and Herbert the old pedophile from Family Guy.
I was trying to get Chuggaaconroy (Let's Player)
And it came up with another Let's player named DeceasedCrab with 15,000 subs, and Chuggaaconroy has 61,000 subs.
So he apparently was not on the list, so i had to enter him in. o.0
Osama Bin Ladin in 14 questions.

Got: Quote from Cave Story(1st try), Bowser from Mario series(1st try), Flandre Scarlet from Touhou 6(2nd try), Chuck Norris(1st try), Osama Bin Laden(1st try), The Kid from I Wanna Be The Guy(2nd try), Pacman(1st try), Pedobear(2nd try), Akinator(1st try).

It got me on Mario, Brad Pitt, Quote (Cavestory), and Kim Possible - All were right. :)
Edit - Got Lady GaGa right, too.
Edit - and Hannah Montana. :D
I beat Akinator. If he guesses wrong 3 times, he loses and you get to submit the correct answer. I was thinking of Wirt from Diablo 1.
Also, he got The Butcher first try. OMG, it got Tyrael.

Pretty sure Stick Online isn't THAT popular yet :)....in time :p
Yea Pwnage but it has managed to get other small time characters like Iji and my friends brother Dan Balcaban.

Yea, when you stump him it asks you who(or what) you were thinking of, so it can guess it right next time around(most likely).
This thing is crazy, it got Weegee and the Tails doll, which are just creepy variations of Nintendo and Sonic Team characters. How it manages to get so accurate, I do not know.

It didn't ask me when it failed...
It did for me, it gave a list of possible choices which you choose from, or you type in the name of who it was you were actually thinking of, if the person is not on the list.
I think it collects the responses to the questions so that it can narrow down the possibilities the next time around, or rather learning from your responses.

It got the Pillsbury Doughboy, for Johnny Quick it got the Big Boy which is pretty close :)
