20 Questions with a BIG Database

This is a pretty impressive database. Think of a character and play 20 questions. The number it gets right is pretty impressive.

Wow.

I put in a couple of, which I consider, pretty obscure celebrities and it got them right.

I also used a couple of Italian soccer players, and it got them too.

If you ask it one that it doesn't know, it asks you to add it, and thus, the database is ever expanding.

These things are like magic. Anyone ever play with that hand-held 20 questions game? That thing's crazy!

I put in a pretty obscure one....Big Al from the Country Bear Jamboree (hey, it was a movie....a crappy one but still a movie!) Neddless to say I wound up having to add him to the database after three unsuccessful rounds! laugh

Wow- I just did John Nash from A Beautiful Mind, think I answered a question wrong, was SURE it was on the wrong track, and it got it right!

I'm actually pretty surprised it didn't get that. You're a pioneer!

Wow- I thought that one would have been in there too!

And Brad, they actually had NONE of the bear boys in the database! How sad. I played a few times and added most of them!

He did guess almost every other obscure character I played including April, May & June..cute little ducks and Pain & Panic from Hercules.

Wow -- I just did Kurt from the Sound of Music. It came up first with some metal singer, then some teen pop kid from England I never heard of...and then came up with Kurt with like five more questions! That was AMAZING.

Apparently the Internet doesn't have a proper appreciation for Bears!
