And how does it guess Jaimi Lannister without asking if he's blonde or fights with a sword? Though it did ask if he was a midget, so I was that close to Tyrion.
I don't get why people find these 20 questions things so impressive.
It's just a decision tree with lots of entered data.
First year computer science students commonly have to make one of these for homework.
You ask a Yes or No question. Based on the users response, you go down the appropriate branch in the tree to the next node. If the node is a question you ask it. If the node is a final answer, you submit that as the user's guess. If this final answer isn't correct, ask the user to enter what they were searching for and a question that would help differentiate their expected answer from the guess. A new question node is thus created to separate the two options.
After people use the tree for a long time it naturally populates with many types of possibilities.
Heh; I remember this thing from a while ago. Playing with it again, it was able to guess Wojtek the Soldier Bear pretty easily. It's definitely getting a larger bank of answers to guess as time passes.
It had real problems with Henry the 4th, since almost everything he did is too random and obscure for the questions it has on it's decision tree. Still, I guess that's a bit like picking someone who isn't really famous. I'm sure it would have got it eventually by guessing english kings.
I went with Sora from Kingdom Hearts just to see how quickly it would get it. After I'd said it was a male video game character, one of the first things it asked was whether he had a keyblade. That must've been blind luck, I was nowhere near specific enough at that point.

It asked me the same thing when I was going for Leonard from White Knight Chronicles.
It's just trying to rule out the most obvious choices. For example, at least half of my attempts with it asked me if my character was silver-haired.
No, I'm not thinking of Sephiroth. But not a bad guess considering I said my character used a Sword, could Transform, and is "Partially" controllable.
It guessed Thrall when I was thinking of Garrosh Hellscream, but then when I went and looked at pictures it turns out I had the two mixed up.
It knows me better than I know myself!

life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze
bad things happen, no one knows why / the sun burns out and everyone dies

How does it pick the questions? What does it do with faulty answers?
It's not that simple. (Pretty simple, but definitely not trivial.)
It didn't get Joe Don Baker as Mitchell, but I might have answered some of the questions wrong. He was on the list at the end.
EDIT- It got Charlie Bronson in 21 questions, pretty impressive. I just watched Bronson, but I had to hit up wikipedia for some of the stuff not covered in the movie.
I just noticed the "Details" link that shows what answers it expected.
Considering some of the answers people give (e.g. Did you know that Rosalina from Super Mario Galaxy is sterile and can't have children? I certainly didn't), it's surprising how well it does.

What the hell, Akinator?
"Is your character an Engineer?"
Why, yes. Isaac Clarke is an Engineer.
And it got Gurgi from Black Cauldron in 17 questions, was not expecting that
Haha yeah, the one that got me was "Can your character travel to parallel dimensions?"
"Is your character from Warhammer?"
"Do people worship your character?"
"Does your character have a beak?"

ALmost went that direction, chose zola from blue dragon and defeated it. I may have skewed it though because i can't remember what color her hair was.

...are there any socialists in Final Fantasy?

But it did spit out "Black Mage Evil Wizardington", which made me laugh.
Sorry valve, looks like Akinator leaked your big reveal for the next HL episode!

Edit: But he didn't guess Diefenbaker, the dog from Due South.
