Peter Answers

by john on May 30, 2007

One of the neighbor kids showed off a new web site called Peter Answers, which describes itself as a “Virtual Tarot.” Erin came home raving about it but I’ll be darned if it worked for us when we tried it. I assumed it was grabbing data from Google and making educated guesses about the answers, but I couldn’t get it to work at home.

Then the kid came over to our place tonight and I saw it in action. It was pretty obvious there was some trick because it was giving answers that were VERY specific, and nothing that would be on Google. So I did a quick Google search of my own and figured out the trick.


How does Peter Answers Work? Just like this:

There are two text entry boxes that you complete when you ask a question. The first is called the petition, and you are directed to type the phrase “Peter, please answer:” or “Peter, please answer the following question:”

Then in the second box you actually type your question, such as the question my son just asked which was “When was the last time I farted?”. After you hit the question mark it will spit out the answer, which should be spookily accurate.

The trick to Peter Answers is that the person typing the question, but most importantly the petition, knows how this works. What they do is when they are typing in the petition field they are actually typing in the answer they want Peter to give, but the text that it shows them typing will be “Peter, please answer:” or “Peter, please answer the following question:”. Since when other people type in the petition box it types what they actually type, how does the trickster actually type the answer? By starting by typing a period, then the answer, then another period then the rest of the petition as required. When you type the first period everything you type up until the next period is the answer that Peter will spill out, but the text that shows as typing on the screen will be the normal petition.

Peter Answer the fortune teller is really quite ingenious and the kids were totally freaked out. I was able to get back at the neighbor kid by using VNC to remotely ask a question while she was sitting at the keyboard, which totally blew her mind. Unfortunetly my son knows that trick and spilled the beans.

it is for real and you have to realise it. me and my two friends visited this site one evening, and i can swear to god and all of you that me, my friend, and my other friend typed the right petition. i am not joking. and he wasn’t only answering the questions correctly, cause believe it or not, he insanely moved my moped from a certain place to another. my friend asked “what are you doing,peter?”, he answered “i recently moved toms(me) moped a little bit, and you?” but in swedish, which is my language. we got freaked out, and ran out to see if it had been moved. and of course it was moved. the front was was where the tail were before and the tail was where the front were before. he had spinned it 180 degrees. one or more human beings could not’ve been moving the moped, since it was locked, and stood close in between a bush and a big jeep. it is also pretty heavy. well, much more things happened that night, alot of sick things that i think will make you believe in this.
me and my two friends was kind of chocked and sat at the computer and talked about this, and one of my friends got mad at peter or how to say it, he just couldn’t believe it and thought it was sick. so he swear out loud, and the swears was directed to peter. suddenly in the answer box, it said “don’t swear”. we got freaked out cause we werent touching the keyboard and wasnt even thinking of asking a question at that time. i mean that is sick and that cant be fake like you guys say.

earlier that evening i correctly asked what one of my two friends middlename was, with the right petition (not the fake since i didnt even knew about that). to be honest i didnt even knew what my friends middlename was. he answered quick as hell “benjamin baltazar”. i dont know if you have that second name in the US or UK but we have it here. and aparently the names where 100% correct.

if you yet dont believe in this, i am glad to tell more convincing stories that happened that night. just let me know.
cheers

The “Peter Answers” secret
The answer is very simple. PeterAnswers is simply a tool not to get facts, but to freak out your friends.

Here are the instructions for how to fool your folks:
- When you go to the site, you will see a “Petition” bar and a “Question” bar. In the petition bar, you are supposed to type in “Peter, please answer the following question”. Or you can type in a shortened version, like “Peter, please answer”.
-In the petition bar, instead of typing in “Peter, please answer”, you type in the answer. How? Well, the “Full Stop” button is the magic button that you press before and after you type in the answer. Anything you type between the two fullstops in for the petition will come up as the answer, and will also come up as “Peter, please answer”. If you have a long answer to type in, you will have to make it look like you are typing in a lengthened version of the petition.
-The best pranksters using PeterAnswers are the ones who can touch type fast, and the ones who are good at making sure people don’t get suspicious of what’s going on with the keyboard.

Here are some examples to help you:

SHORT ANSWER
Just say your question is “What is my favourite colour?” and the correct answer is “Blue”. In the petition bar, you will type “.Blue. please answer” But whoever you are tricking will see it come up as “Peter, please answer”.

LONG ANSWER
Just say your question is “What is my full name” and the correct answer is “Callum Arnold Smith”. In the petition bar, you will type “.Callum Arnold Smithy Cooper.owing” But whoever you are tricking will see it come up as “Peter, please answer the following”.

Good luck with your pranks and hopefully you will be successful at tricking your friends. I hope this helped!

Answer
you press the period then type your answer and then type your question and then the answers shows up and it freaks everyone out!!!!

And thank you :-)

jasmine brownlee October 21, 2008 at 11:01 am

hey its ya gurl jasmine loven dees fake foney ass phsychics.. people cant predict the future you just have to let it fall intto place.. dont rush things cause you’ll be disappointed when the out come of it isnt so good.. if its ment to happen it will but trying to figure it all out isnt the way to go.. if you want amswer turn to god for them.. 1st it’s free and 2′cd he’s the 1 and onnly person that can actually tell ou what going to happen in life.. shychics are poeple and human beins just like u and i.. they were but on this earth by god not to try and predict future but to live life.. if god put them on this earth for such reason what in ur right mind causes u to thnk that they would know the future.. and its not about knowing your future its about the things you do to get there and the things you do that can effect you future..
