    Default Akinator, the Web Genie

    I found a little game for our members to play for fun. You are to think of a person/character either real or fictional in your head and answer Yes and No questions asked by the website and it will try to guess that person. It's scary-accurate; it even guessed wuxia characters right (which I thought would be impossible). It guessed Xiao Feng, Zhang Wuji, and Huang Rong right. The game is called Akinator, the Web Genie.

    Sorry, please move if this in the wrong section. I thought it'd be cool if wuxia lovers could enjoy having their favorite characters being guessed.

    I remember this. It was good at getting Wuxia protagonists, but not supporting characters.

    There are way too many supporting characters so it's not surprising. I would be super impressed if the genie would be able to guess all the lowly scrubs in jianghu.

    It could do it for just about every character in Western culture. I had to take it to Wuxia supporting characters before it broke down. It is a very impressive engine.
