::looks sad:: Me neither! This is such a gyp. Are you guys making this stuff up to make us feel bad?
I don’t know about anyone else, but I’m not making mine up. I’ve gotten such great games from this MB (this, Furious George and Guess the Evil Dictator/Sit-Com Character).

<Growl> is there something wrong with the link that I can’t use it? What address are you guys all going to? I wanna get in on all the fun, damnit!
Zoggie, nothing’s wrong with the link, i just used it. if you are determined to see the site, just type it in: http://www.20q.net . it’s not complex.
okay, here’s my question: once we’ve determined that we are in the realm of household/everyday objects, what can’t orbit the earth? you could send a candy bar into orbit, if you really really wanted to. (or if NASA wanted to just a little bit.) and there’s definitely something funny going on, becuase after i definitively answered that it was an item intended for eating, there were still all sorts of non-edible items on the “probable” list. i guess neural nets are sort of unreliable that way.
but don’t tell me a eucalyptus tree “doesn’t lift the spirits.” the smell of a eucalyptus grove is one of the best things ever. good as chicken soup.
unfortunately, i learned today that a eucalyptus tree is a bottom feeder. fascinating.
Note to self: Jokes can’t liquify small furry animals.

What’s the world coming to?
This is going to be horribly addictive! For an incense burner (although I would have to admit that an early “guess” at “pipe for tobacco” was substantially accurate), it gave up and produced a list of suggestions which included
crib,cookbook,dreidel,picture frame,and rocking chair, before suddenly taking a different tack and suggesting cheese!
Oh, and I learned that I CAN lift a wolf. Now I know, I won’t feel the need to try it at any time soon. And I feel stupid becuase I don’t know what a dreidel is. I’m now in a hurry to tell my friends so they can waste time too. Thanks Chief Crunch!
Hee hee. After the question “Does it fly” is answered “Yes”, 3 of the Probable Objects are: an actor, a Pope and a killer whale.
I have a pre-existing registration there, and I’m glad that y’all have finally discovered it. I’m laughing over just how well your experiences match mine. The AI they use is interesting: It can be sharp one moment, and then blindingly stupid the next. But most of its knowledge is what users have told it, and you have to be pretty far into the internet to play 20 questions with a machine, so that would skew the information it got. Myself, I wonder what in the world previous users would have had to type in for it to associate flying with a killer whale.
After I finished playing with “computer mouse” as my subject (30 tries, BTW), it gave out this Spontaneous Knowledge: Spontaneous Knowledge

I just played it. Here’s what I came up with:
Interesting. I always thought mountain climbers carried grain in cheek pouches and were worn on the human body. Another bit of ignorance fought.
Ok. The topic is genitals. Here’s what the machine gave me:
I love the last one on the Spontaneous Knowledge. Satan might be found on Canadian money, but I’ll be damned if genitals are. Oh, yeah, you would touch your genitals. And, finally, genitals do lift the spirits. And one last thing: Genitals might not be elected to public office. I guess the machine hasn’t figured out yet that most politicians are dicks.
“genitals might not be able to kill you”
whoooeee, i guess the 20q AI has never had gonorrhea!!
okay, neither have i.
Ok,I’m having far too much fun with this.
Hahah,
That’s what I call a strange game.
I played with Picnic Table. It took it 30 guesses to get it right.
The don’t police use a picnic table? I am not sure what the don’t police are.
It asked me if it came in more then one piece, and I answered “sometimes”. The next questions was is it a lazy animal? I had no idea you could get lazy animals in more then one piece!
I love this game. I am going to go play again.
this might be why some people couldn’t get on… From the link…
Now to go play…
okay, I tried a kilt, and then bagpipes. For the kilt, it came close, sort of - on q20, it guessed a kimono, but eventually gave up.
for bagpipes, on question 20 it guessed an atomic bomb.
It can’t even guess “orgasm”
-crispix types “crispix”
YEAH! Zoggie can play. And I too am enchanted by this delightful little game.
Here’s what I learned:
Contradictions
A nightgown is a common household object
A nightgown is pleasurable
A nightgown does hold things
You can control a nightgown
A nightgown is probably symmetrical
A nightgown is usually colorful
A nightgown is heavier than a pound of butter
It does not matter if our answers disagree, overtime my answers will change to reflect common knowledge. The best way to fix these contradictions is to play again.
