Got it on the first try.



I tried to make it guess Philly Boy Roy, but it guessed Judge Smails instead.
Too soon?

It guessed Walter Sobchak for me, but it's getting closer to figuring out Philly Boy Roy.

Hundreds of people have played "Humbert Humbert" before me.

By the way, I like how ICP characters, Henry Chinaski, and Buddy Bradley are all kind of similar to PBR.

I have tried more times than I feel comfortable mentioning, but I still can't get Philly Boy Roy. 
For the appearance questions I am not sure I should think to Wurster incognito or just that picture from the website?

Stumped it four times before it got one right (Chuck D). Not impressed.

I stumped it with Greg Proops but it guessed Philip Roth correctly. Eh.
I'll probably go into the wee hours.

Things like this usually let you input questions or characteristics.

Also, it didn't get Tetro for me. But it did guess one of the Mr Men.

On a whim I tried Spike and it guessed Brian Peppers (?) that disfigured dwarf guy whose photo was all over the internet asfter he got arrested for sexual assault.

Just now Akinator guessed Cormac McCarthy the first round, Garrison Keillor the second, before finally settling correctly on Tom Scharpling.


Which is odd, since I answered "No" to Does your character "spook" people? early on.

I defeated it with Uncle Floyd.  It thought I was talking about Barry Manilow.

That made me try Spagett, which it did eventually get after first guessing Mr. Roper and then Potsie.  It didn't ask me if my character spooked people though :(
Sounds like someone was working as a conduit for nature's natural vengeance.  Just like Jesus.  And some of the others.

I've been training it with spike for a few days now. It gets it right about a third of the time.
