I just don't like when he asks the same question like 10 times or conflicting stuff.

there's no way for him to know that 2 questions are essentially the same (unless the wording is literally the exact same) or that 2 questions directly conflict
he also asks questions that don't help him guess your character in order to collect data (so he can use the question to find your character in the future)

The wording is identical :<

im gonna give him a test with a super easy character like Spongebob. Lets see how fast he gets it.

It took 25 questions and one of them was "Is your character HIV positive"

in that case i guess the site doesn't check whether new questions are already in the database \_()_/

Harkon (Skyrim) - 23 questions

Haurchefant (FFXIV) - 25 questions

Koga (Pokmon) - 30 questions

Doesn't seem too bad though maybe it should have gotten koga quicker. Didn't ask any Nintendo or pokemon related questions early. Always seems to be a fnaf question in the first 10 which makes me assume a LOT of people spam akonator with fnaf robots

It looks like Man Fan is already in the database :

That was pretty bad.

I was thinking Benjamin Sisko from Deep Space 9, it guessed Julian Bashir from DS9 after question 23 and it took nine more questions for it to guess Sisko.

Mines froze after question 25

I thought of an obscure character from Attack on Titan, it literally asked me if my character was from AoT, and then like 3 questions later asked if my character is from the tv show Friends.

"Is your character black haired?"
Yes

2 questions later:
"Is your character blond?"

Man it took 77 questions to get Anri Okita. But I guess that's because its information is either outdated or wrong.

Is your character in the porn industry?
Has your character ever been married?
Has your character recorded any albums?
Does your character have any kids?
Is your character a singer?
Does your character come from England?
Has your character made a solo album?

It said that my answers for all those questions were wrong. But she is married, is a singer, has released a solo album, has a daughter, and was born in England. The first question is iffy though. She used to do porn, but retired. So when he asked IS, and not WAS your character in the porn industry, "no" is the correct answer, right?

Thanks for explaining it as opposed to making a snarky condescending post like the shitposter you are.

idk how to explain it more than that i don't see a reason to think they would implement some ai thing to make it understand the questions enough to know how they relate to each other

30 guesses to get madoka
in his heyday hed guess that shit in under 10 questions

I was able to get Nicol Bolas in 25 but it's really struggling on some other things.

I thought this topic was exaggerating but it's actually become too bloated for the AI to work.

They're now making money off this shit, so they'd better optimize it like that

Why not? Assign these questions to specific categories and if a yes is answered to one of them, remove the other questions from that category from the pool.
