It would be great if you could open source it

Can I wear it? 👎 Is it a microwave? 👍

This is too easy

Joelk111, (edited )

I asked

“Is it living” 👎

“Is it larger than a microwave?” Wow you got it!

I would consider the answer to that question a no, not a “You solved it!” A microwave is not larger than a microwave.

Edit: They updated the game to make it more lenient after people guessing microwave over didn’t get it. It’s too lenient now though, in my opinion.

Ookami38,

Similar but I thought it worked around it another way lol. I asked if it was smaller than a refrigerator (y) and larger than a toaster (y). I arrived at it being an appliance in the kitchen, so I thought it just said yes for the first one and it was a refrigerator. I was sad when it wasn’t lol

Some responses seemed iffy but I’d play again.

But sexist stereotypes did exist before the internet (at a much higher rate than today). Using the logic of the past doesn’t mean it’s being sexist of today.

Edit. Responded to the main post instead of a comment. Whoops

I thought it was broken, because I asked if it was an oven, and it said yes… And then nothing. Just a bit confusing to people who don’t understand AI and fuzzy answers.

Basil,

Wdym? You’re asking Yes or No questions, the word wasn’t oven, but the word WAS an oven, it was microwave. I think there was just a misunderstanding

hasnt_seen_goonies,

I asked if it was an oven, and it said yes,

Apparently microwaves aren’t made of metal >:(

alxjsn,

By any chance did you ask “is it a metal?” Microwaves contain/are made of metal but aren’t a metal.

Fisherswamp,

I asked if it contained at least 30% metal

eriner,

Thanks for your feedback! We’ve implemented a change to improve the outcome of this kind of question in the future.

Anti_Iridium,

I asked that as well

d00ery,

Microwaves also don’t contain motors 😂

“is it a proper noun”: 🤷‍♂️

“are there multiple of this”: 👎

eriner,

Thanks for finding this issue. Our “cheater buster” was a bit overzealous about the first question, but it’s a legitimate non-cheating question so we’ve made an exception. It should work in the future. The second question was “no” probably because the word itself isn’t in the plural form. The question “is there more than one of them in the world?” is functionally equivalent and works around this quirk.

StThicket, do games w Quizzle – Can you guess the word in fewer than twenty questions?

I came as far as asking: is it an oven 👍 Then: is it a stove 👎 Then wtf is it???

I never in my life have considered a microwave to be an oven, but obviously it is. I’ve never had one, so I have limited experience with it.

Anti_Iridium,

You do know microwave is short for [en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_oven](Microwave Oven?)

StThicket,

Yeah, but it can also be a type of radio wave

Eyy got it in 7

Is it an object? 👍 is it something found in a house? 👍 is it an appliance? 👍 Is it a kitchen appliance? 👍 is it a toaster? 👎 Does it heat food? 👍 is it a microwave?

Why we have to wait 24 hours for new word?

jack,

It’s proprietary so we have no control

I’m hesitant to say that the current word is a bad choice, but it feels far too specific to me. I’m curious what questions one could ask after finding out that it’s a type of f___ that would lead to the exact type of f___ that it is.

Again, I’m hesitant to criticize the decision, because it’s entirely possible that I’m just dumb and gave up too soon

ConsumptionOne,

Agreed. I narrowed it down to a small species of ocean fish that was featured in Finding Nemo, but couldn’t figure out how to pin down a specific species.

eriner,

I’d rate this one “black diamond” level for sure.

My Questionsis it alive? 👍 is it an animal? 👍 is it a land animal? 👎 is it a salt water fish? 👍 is it a tropical fish? 👍 is it commonly consumed in America? 👎 is it a common fish in home aquariums? 👎 is it a common fish in public aquariums? 👍 does it have a distinct color? 🤷‍♂️ is it larger than a bread box? 👎 is it a keystone species? 🤷‍♂️ is it a character in the movie Finding Nemo? 👍 Is it larger than one foot in length? 👎 does it have unique characteristics that differentiate it from other fish? 👍 is it a clown fish? 👎 is it an angler fish? 👎 is it a deep sea fish? 👎 is it a seahorse? ⭐

I feel the same way to be honest, with the current question I did it all the way through and I was at odds end of what I could ask it aside from just straight out asking if it’s a specific type, third question in was the exact one that you spoilered out and yet I wasn’t even able to get a general ballpark of what it was in the next 17 questions.

SimpleMachine, do games w Quizzle – Can you guess the word in fewer than twenty questions?

The word for me was seahorse, but when I asked it if it had scales the game answered yes. Seahorses do not have scales.

eriner,

Spoilers! :) I checked this one and it seems to have corrected itself. You’re absolutely correct, though!

Noscharhar,

FWIW - I had just asked the same and it said no!

Soupbreaker, do games w Quizzle – Can you guess the word in fewer than twenty questions?

I dunno how difficult to implement this might be, but it ought to be cognizant of Linnaean taxonomy. I just had one where the word was seahorse, but the bot claimed it was not a ray-finned fish.

austinfloyd, do games w Quizzle – Can you guess the word in fewer than twenty questions?

The AI seemed to struggle with scientific names for .

The question

spoiler"Is it in the Actinopterygii class?"

was answered as no, though the correct answer should have been yes.

modeler,

Same with me! I was binary searching cladistically and it spoiler >!it was a jawed animal and did not have hard bones!<. My search among the >!cartilaginous fish!< was all negative. Damn

JamesNZ, do games w Quizzle – Can you guess the word in fewer than twenty questions?

I asked if the word was a noun, and it gave me a “don’t know”. I asked if the word was an adjective, and also got a “don’t know”, so I gave up.

eriner,

Asking about linguistic characteristics of the word is cheating in twenty questions! :) There’s a note about this at the end of the “How To” that’s linked on the front page.

JamesNZ,

Why would that be cheating?

JamesNZ,

Also maybe a prompt to this note when you fall foul of this rule would be better than a “I don’t know” amoji.

Peppycito,

If it doesn’t know, you should get another question.

alxjsn,

That’s already the behavior. Those don’t count as tries.

CoggyMcFee,

Well in this case the instructions specifically say to avoid those kinds of questions.
