The proper name of this game is "Pangolins." Back when I was about 9 (so this would be around 1980) I was deemed one of the most gifted and talented students in Essex.

(Pauses to bask in your adoration.)

Anyway so I was sent to this camp to mingle with other superior individuals and that's where I saw my first computer up close. It was a Commodore PET with a whopping 8k of RAM and it was playing this game. It's uncanny ability to guess the animal I was thinking of totally scared the hell out of me. How long before such powerful AIs would enslave the human race?

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
