34 Questions --- Casey Stengel

r_foye 06-27-2011 02:01 PM

Audie Murphy, 14 questions.

RichieLion 06-27-2011 02:18 PM

It guessed wrong at first, naming Lily Allen; I continued and after about 5 more questions answered correctly Amy Winehouse. I'm guessing about 2 dozen question total, but I didn't keep count.

I tried this..I think the genie had a brain fart. One of the first questions was if the character was a sports figure...said NO. Was asked about 8 more questions re sports. genie's first guess was prince charles..it took 29 questioins to get to Paul McCartney. I have been thinking about him for 45 years...LOL

mac9 06-27-2011 04:05 PM

48 questions to get Steven Tyler...also made 4 wrong guesses!

2newyorkers 06-27-2011 04:52 PM

15 to get Joan of Arc.

Golf-Tinker 06-27-2011 04:54 PM

It Gave Up
 
It guessed Paul Revere. Character I had in mind was Dr. Joseph Warren, forgotten patriot of the American Revolution.

For kicks I tried Steven Tyler right after I read as I was curious about consistancy. I answered "I do not know" twice and it got Stven after the 23rd question. It got it wrong with Bob Jovi at question 20.

tpop1 06-27-2011 05:33 PM

Another one!

Locked-up at the 29th question and guessed wrong once.

Maybe I didn't answer all the questions right but I picked Sam Houston from he Alamo.

I will try again with Sam Houston as these games are very interesting.

I tried it again and after 60 plus questions and several guesses, the game was stumped. I had to add Sam Houston to the list.

Sam Houston of Alamo fame.

Thanks for posting this Indy-Guy.

The game redeemed itself by guessing Dr. Samuel Mudd who set John Wilkes Booth leg after assinating President Lincoln in 27 questions.

FWIW - Roger Mudd's, (the newsman great grandfather). It took him many years to clear his name of wrongdoing. Hence the saying, your name is mud.

barb1191 06-27-2011 08:27 PM

About 10 wrong guesses and I lost count of how many attempts; probably over 50 and eventually a list of about 25 names appeared and my choice William Holden (my fav actor) was at the top of the list.

billmar 06-27-2011 08:58 PM

after about 40 questions, got it right on second guess...Robert Redford. first guess after 29 questions was John Travolta...after about 10 more questions, got it right. this was right after the question was your character already famous in the 70's? Interesting, but the app was a little slow.

pqrstar 06-27-2011 09:09 PM

I did Pat Boone, Gen. Robert E. Lee, and Mickey Mouse

It was correct for all three and each in less than 20 questions.

sunflower3630 06-27-2011 09:58 PM

Thanks for this fun game! I've passed it on to several others. Mine guessed Howdy Doody (incorrectly) after 20 questions, then after several more guessed Speedy Alka Seltzer correctly. Pretty neat!

redwitch 06-27-2011 10:39 PM

52 guesses Adlai Stevenson (first guess was George Patton!!!)

hedoman 06-28-2011 02:34 AM

12 to get JFK I guess it was too easy

Very Impressive

Baltimore Guy 06-28-2011 08:03 AM

It got me on 20 to get Jonny Uintas of the Baltimore Colts.:beer3:

villages07 06-28-2011 08:24 AM

Johnny Carson after 15 questions. Cute game...thanks for sharing.

oot 06-28-2011 12:56 PM

Has me hooked
 
It even knew Kwame Kilpatrick within 20. Only missed Josh Turner so far. Pretty slick!

Chief X 06-28-2011 02:09 PM

20 for Warren Buffett

glwcww 06-28-2011 04:11 PM

Totally amazing! It guessed Dale Evans, Liberace and John the Baptist...all under 18 questions!
