It seems that Akinator doesn't recognise any HPMOR characters.

This sounds like a job for a few procrastinators with a weekend to spare.

Nope, HJPV. They had a crudely-drawn picture and said he'd been guessed 114 times.

o.O 112 people couldn't have seen my original comment and played it yet. Apparently HJPEV was already on the database. (Akinator didn't seem to recognise the name when I entered it, though... odd.)

The obvious explanation is that it's not keeping count properly.

ETA: Played again. This is what I got:

Apparently there are two records for the same character. The one I added is called 'Harry James Potter-Evans-Verres (Methods of Rationality)'
