Interesting, very intersting. It took 29 guesses to get a pair of socks. I will have to play with it a few more times

1 very big flaw with it is that it considers all types of plants and fungus to be vegetables. I tried "Mushroom", and since it isn't a vegetable, I classified it as "Other", the thing guessed it in 30 questions, but then told me that it considers mushrooms to be vegetables. Same with tomatoe (which are fruit if you don't know), I got the same result.

Other than that, it's amazing, it got Guitar Pick in 19 questions.

Yeah, I don't get its classification scheme. And what are animals? Just animals? Or are protists animals? Bacteria? Does "vegetable" mean plant or fungus? And what does it mean by "mineral"? The scientific definition of mineral (a hard substance with a crystalline patern, and some other stuff), or the other definition, meaning just about any tangible thing that's not living? Can anyone explain it to me?
