It got Alex P. Keaton (once it asked "Are you interested in business?" and "Do you have two sisters?", it was over) and every other character I tried including Samantha Stevens from Bewitched, Maxwell Smart from Get Smart, Sam Malone from Cheers and Malcolm from Malcolm in the Middle.

It's very cool but there is always one or two questions you can ask to get a certain character/dictator. It's just a question of having every character/dictator covered

game. Somebody had a bunch of freetime making up this one.

Uses logic based questions, but I wonder how many characters there are in its database.

It didn't get my character, Frasier Crane. I had to say "yes" to the fix things question simply because he fixes minds, which might have threw it. It's in there now, though, so we'll see....

This is a simple program just like one I wrote in Pascal in college. Your looking at about 200 lines of code. All it does is build a a yes/no binary tree, then traverse that tree base on your answers. When it reaches a terminal node it issues an answer.

Stupid.
