Simple faces game. Presents user with a picture and a set of choices of names. The goal is to pick the correct name for the face.
The game will show you whether or not you are correct and what you should ask that person about (their listed skills)!
This game was primarily my own learning about web protocols, web coding, templating, and scraping.
Hopefully it'll also help me learn everyone's names too (and maybe even help others).
