Sorcerous sorcery, naturally.

Anyway, if you "win" on Akinator, it requests that you put in what you were actually thinking of. It collects data on the various answers people give for any given character and uses that to choose which weight to give for each answer for each character, and then it uses that to make its guesses. Obviously, someone at some point did the thing for Cacame and your answers were close enough to theirs for it to accurately guess.

Hey, it can even give Carp as an answer and bring up DF with it.



Gives that picture.

I defeated akinator.  Went for an obscure character.

"Kris", the love interest of "pat" from SNL.  Akinator didn't stand a chance. (Though he did suggest pat.)

because everyone here is OCD and ADHD, and then complain when their dwarfs act similarly in game.

Tried it out thinking of that one dwarf from Boatmurdered who was on fire and went berserk.

Yeah, I wasn't having any luck with other figures, either.

Say, has anyone tried seeing if it knows Cleverbot?  :P

Ach, I was thinking of Toady one (the great), and it said I was thinking of icefrog.

Close, but not close. :|

Kinda surprised there was another amphibious game designer out there o-o
