Very clever:

I win. 25 questions later and Vader announced "this is a load of Bantha fodder." Funny to hear that spoken in JEJ's voice.

Takes a hell of a long time to load up.

I don't think it's JEJ, dosen't really sound like him. Kinda weird when the king comes in and whispers on Vader's ears

I didn't say it was actually his voice. Just something being spoken in his voice which, to me at least, could mean it's either him or someone speaking like him. Somehow I don't see JEJ actually doing this either. But the person who did it did a pretty damn good job.

Holy crap!
He got an Emu in 17 questions!

And a spoon in 20...

But still... An Emu!

Very cool indeed. Heh, after he got the Emu, the subservient chicken ran around in the background.

What impressed me is, even though I answered to vague, non-related questions, he was able to guess right: DVD-ROM. I wish I could see the algorithm behind it, must be one hell of a good example to show to students in a artificial inteligence class.

He got me the second time, but it took him 25 questions and two attempts at a specific item. I was thinking "monkey" and he came back with "spider monkey." That was good enough for me.

Holy cow! And I thought that the training I received at Imperial Security Bureau will make me at least a bit resistant to the "mind probe"... Lord Vader is indeed powerful

It took Him 24 questions to guess I was thinking of a gun/blaster.

And I agree - that's the best JEJ voice impersonation I've ever heard. I wish LucasArts hired this guy years ago, lol
He does that "modulation" thing (it's hard to explain for me, James Earl Jones sometimes accents his sentences in that way).

Doh! It was fun - thanks for the link!
(Of course it's fun as long as you want to play it... there is an easy way to confuse the algorithm...)
I saw the original theatrical release of the Old Trilogy on the big screen and I'm proud of it...
How did I accomplish that (considering my age) is my secret...

Don't get all technical with me.

I was thinking of shoe polish and he got me in 26 questions.

I got to 30. I was thinking of a PDA.

Princess Leia: I happen to like nice men.
Han Solo: I'm a nice man.

Had the same problem. Apparently he tries to access the server to update the information, and since it cannot reach it - maybe it's down, or overloaded - the game freezes.

It seems to me that the game has a library of words and a library of questions, and each word has one or more answers associated to each question. Some questions cancel each other, and when it narrows to a few words, the program asks specific questions to narrow down to fewer words. If after a number of tries it dosen't find the word, it asks for your input, and then it was supposed to update the game, so it becomes more "inteligent" at each mistake it makes. Very clever and very simple.

I was thinking of a video game... He got "Game" in 26 questions, so I gave it to him.

Also, does anyone else wish this flash had a "shoot" option we could use against the King. I cant' stand the King. It gives me the creeps.

I just played again, and he got "Lightsaber" in 20 questions, but I stumped him with "Railroad Tie" Also, I stumped it with "Ysalamiri"

After about 30 questions, he quit and went away. Must be the Hayden Vader rather than the Prowse/Jones Vader.

Let me try... Padme. Maybe he'll get the answer and say "nooooooo"

I was thinking "penny" but decided that I would accept "coin" as a good answer. He guessed "penny" in 17.

It guessed "cassete tape" in 20 questions, and it did not make specific questions such as "does it play music", or "is it small"... Very nice.
