Score so far....Fluffy 4 - 0 Akinator.

Assuming we're talking about it getting its first guess wrong, and not counting my repeat of Dick Van Dyke (who I expected it to fail on), I've beaten it 4 times too:

Jocelyn Bell Burnell,

Paddy Considine,

Ken Dodd, and

David Attenborough

 

Failing on Attenborough surprised me, but it seemed to get badly confused between him and John Craven, and when I checked the Game Record it seems it doesn't think Attenborough is concerned about the environment!

 

The Game Records can often be very interesting, as I'm fascinated in how it works and why it seems to go off on weird tangents at times. It does appear to have some mistakes in its database, so when you give a correct answer it thinks you're wrong and that throws it off. For example, it seems to think that the astronaut Alan Shepard did not serve in WW2 (he did: on a destroyer in the Pacific). I had a similar experience with Lou Costello: I was sure Akinator was on to me when it asked if my character is from New Jersey (he was born there), but it then went off on a weird tangent and only just managed to get back on track and get it right after 25 questions. when I checked the record, it turned out it didn't know whether or not Costello was from there...

Nearly eighty questions asked before admitting defeat, with wrong guesses on:

Omar Sharif,

John Mills,

Richard Harris, and

Trevor Howard.

Take 2:

Just tried him again and it got it on first guess after 25 questions. The difference this time is that I pretended he was still alive. Its database can't have been updated properly yet: for the question "Is your character dead?" it expected the answer "No", but for the question "Is your character still alive?" it also expected "No".

(And of course the fact that it asked both those questions on a first guess implies something wrong with its algorithm anyway...)

 

The giveaway must have been the final question "Does your character have a famous brother?", which it never asked me first time round...

 You're gonna break it Fluffy !  Does it have smoke coming out of it yet?

Not quite, but it's little face does go red and all screwed up!

 

After about 80+ questions It came up with Rudolpho Valentino, for the Adolfo Celi one.

And I had googled Adolfo as well, so I was giving pretty accurate responses.
