Aren't all Ishbalans blond? |

O_o No, I've never even seen a blond one. The only unifying characteristics are dark brown skin and blood red eyes. (Hence the discrimination thing. They're a bit intimidating.) Scar had white hair even as a little goober, but...it's anime...so yeah.

I believe you're thinking of spoiler[the people of Xerxes] - none of the Ishballans are blond. |

They're all white (as in blank) - haired in the manga, including Scar's brother. Also, I would say Scar's hair is blond - albeit a very pale shade - but YMMV. |

Hint #1 - spoiler[This character is a government official.]
Hint #2 - spoiler[In this scene, the pictured character is in the process of making a very unwelcome sexual advance toward one of the lead characters.] Hint #3 - spoiler[This character used his position to organize a secret competition pitting individuals from two groups against one another in duels to the death.] And now for the final hint... Hint #4 - spoiler[The anime in which this character appears has nothing to do with Fullmetal Alchemist but metal definitely has an important place in the story's premise. And while the previous hints might indicate a fairly grim series, the ANN Encyclopedia entry gives comedy and romance as the genre descriptors.] |

Gaah! That's undoubtedly the right answer. How did I miss placing him despite those clues? Ugh.

Maybe this one will be more difficult than the previous ones I've posted. I also thought the same thing about my last picture too. And my next one... |

On a different note, jetz's last post on ANN appears to be May 26. It is possible that she is preoccupied temporarily with an unknown return date, or it may be that she has left permanently for whatever reason. In either case, the start of Q3 is uncertain. Should we be looking for a replacement host? If not, when would be a sufficiently long wait?

Well, Key could probably run it, although usually it runs itself. Just copy and paste jetz's rules into a new thread, and have whoever correctly guesses larinon's picture to post in that thread first. Simple. I believe we should do it sooner rather than later; we don't know when she will be back, so might as well get the new quarter under way. |

If someone does do that, please be sure to post a link to it here so that the rest of us will find and/or remember to subscribe to the thread. Thanks. |

Started a thread for the new quarter here. I posted Iarinon's game pic, hint and Symmetrical_Magician's guess at the bottom of the first post.
Please don't delete this thread yet. I will be going through it to tally the score. |
