    Enjoy, this fascinated my entire office. It probably torpedoed productivity, but what the heck, it is the end of the year.

    How the hell did it do that?!!?!? I am impressed, I picked Dr Cox from Scrubs and it got it, took it a while but it got it. I reckon it must build up a data base when people use it.

    I have only been able to stump it once. That was with Commander Adama from Battlestar Galactica. Although that was technically it may have been right, as it gave me the answer Commander (something I don't remember) Adama from Battlestar Galactica 2003. I was thinking about the original one (Lorne Greene).

    It then asked me to provide a question to seperate the two.

    I stumped it with Theodora of Byzanteum but it was really close and it might have been right and just misspelt the name cause it first asked me something about disregarding spelling and then answered something that started with Th and then of Byzanteum but it was pretty far off so I said it wasnt correct.

    Is Battlestar Galactica a sitcom?

    Very cool link. I tried a lot of stuff, but it gets it right every time. I thought I had beaten it with Doug from The King of Queens, but I later tried the same character again and it got it correctly. I probably answered a question wrong or something like that.

    And I don't think you necessarily need to think of a sitcom character. It has characters from other series as well.

    Wow! Tried it six times, and it got all of them:

    - Roseanne
    - Raymond (Everyone Loves ...)
    - Edith Bunker
    - Dino the Dinosaur
    - Sgt. Schultz (Hogan's Heros)
    - Douey (Malcolm in the Middle)

    Pretty impressive.

    Kyahahah... fooled it - I was thinking Craig from Malcom in the Middle, but it thought that I was Drew Carey. Though the difference is not too big.

    Horshack from Welcome Back Kotter seemed to do the trick, but I am not positive about a couple of my answers, so who knows?

    I stumped it with Yumi, from Ulysses 31 (gotta love old French-Japanese Cartoons...I want to see it again...).

    And I also stumped him with No-No from the same show. I guess not too many people have tried it with that. (Was Ulysses 31/Odysseus 31 ever released in the US?)

    Damn, it got me with Al Bundy from Married With Children, I think answering 'yes' to 'are you married to Peg' gave me away.

    Hell, it even got me with Asuka from Evangelion and Vash the Stampede from Trigun.. tsk.

    I picked up a mistake (I think) the first time I played through and stumped it the second AND third times.

    First time: I thought the name of the dog in Married...With Children was Buck, not Lucky

    Second and Third Times: if I got it right, I stumped it with Tasty Coma Wife and Danni from Scrubs

    The name is Buck, but he dies and in the later episodes they have a dog named Lucky.

    Damn this is fun.

    Stumped it with Washington from Welcome Back Kotter. (Thanks to dmc for that idea.)

    It got me on:

    Fox Mulder - X Files
    Stewie - The Family Guy
    Bobby Hill - King of the Hill
    Faye Valintine - Cowboy Bebop

    I'm gonna keep playing and playing till I beat it again.

    EDIT: It even got me on Balki from Perfect Strangers. Now that's impressive.

    That said, I did get it on Josef Stalin, so nyaa nyaa!

    I *think* I got it with Velma from Scooby Doo, but I wasn't too sure on a few questions.

    It got me on Homer Simpson though. :shake:

    EDIT: Beat it with JBL from WWE Smackdown.

    You must have made a mistake if you stumped it on Stalin, I have tried Stalin and it didnt have any problem with it for me.
