Yes, I stumped the Genie.

I was thinking of the character F'nor in the Pern-series of books by Anne McCaffery. After 19 questions - none of them asking whether it was a character from a book - the Genie said: I think of :

Ivan Braginski/Russia
( Axis Powers Hetalia)

one of the questions I got was if the character was from a novel.. of course, that may depend entirely on the answers leading up to it...

When you add the character to the database it is a stump....

Stumped him the first time (no I was not thinking of Darth Vader) but after about a half a dozen more questions he finaly narrowed in on William Adama.

I wonder what would happen if I pick a character I've made up?

Hmmm...

ETA: Okay, I don't know if this counts or not. The Genie did eventually guess that I was thinking of a character from my own imagination but it showed me a picture of some purple bird puppet thing... and my character is NOT a purple bird puppet thing.

He guessed wrong the first time after 19 questions, then got it after another 5 questions. I was thinking of too popular a character, obviously!

Dont judge me because I sin differently than you.
If you want it sugar coated, dont ask me what i think! It would violate TOS.

Well after 80+ guesses the Genie asked me to name my character, give the origins etc....

I was thinking of Uller the Shyne, the Lantis Sagas, by Wulfgar.

I wonder what would happen if we tried some of the "characters" we have around here.

Hmmmm....

ETA: Well... according to the Genie... THIS is pahunkboy.

ETA: And HERE is the Genie's second attempt.

ETA: Aw frick! It stopped working! After thirty-nine questions it crashed! I think the Genie "thinks" I'm pulling it's leg.

ETA: Apparently I have to stay on the page in order for the link to work. Oh well (y'all just have to trust me that it was funny).

Not stumped, but I made that Genie think hard!
It took him 13 guesses to come up with Pikachu.


I thought he was on to me by question 8, but then he asked if
my character wears a very sexy miniskirt or ever attended University.

Yes, I am confident I can beat it every time. I have an unfair advantage...I'm a history buff from Canada. The genie doesn't stand a chance.
My system is to pick relatively unknown famous Canadians.
I beat it with Andy McNaughton (1st commander of the 1st Cdn. Army in WW2)  & Sam Hughes (Cdn Minister of Militia/Defense in WW1).
I had a few others in mind but it got boring after two.
