You know, I'm just going to go out on a stupid limb and suggest the conspiracy that James is actually Man-Faye. We don't know - we can't see it - but some have a feeling that it's really him...[/color][/size]

[size=1]Ehm... The Newbie Lounge was deleted and was an incredible monster. Then came the MyOtaku. I found it rather creative of myself. :3 It's a pity that 'Monster' was written with a capital and probably reffers to the member that I know nothing about.

I was going to answer 'Taste' to the first riddle, but I figured that it would include me, and stepped back from that answer.[/size]

[Ikillion]

[COLOR=#99121c][SIZE=1][FONT=Comic Sans MS]Hmm yeah this one really did actually cause me to think...which didn't work.

I am going to guess that #8 is Lunox, mostly because its the only name that I can think of that sounds like lunar :3[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[STRIKE]Hmm, wild guess, but I'm thinking [B]Harry[/B]?[/STRIKE]

Okay, nevermind, he's changed his avi. Curses. -_-[/SIZE]

[INDENT]The Arena's original metropolis.[/SIZE][/INDENT][/QUOTE]

[SIZE=1]I'm going to take a guess at this one and say [b]Meteo City[/b], the RPG series that Hybrid Vigor is based off of.[/SIZE]

[Sangome]

[size=1]YAY! I got one right! x3

[John]

[size=1][b]#6:[/b] Quantum Kabuki Troupe, the OB guild on Guild Wars.
[/size]

[Claire]

[FONT=Arial]I'm going to guess that #7 is PWNED...=/ [strike]Either that or Strongbadia.[/strike][/FONT]

[Kei]

[color=darkblue][size=1]Ooo, #5 would be [b]the n00b[/b] from Solo's "Enter the Net" fanfic...I think.[/color][/size]

[Sakura]

[COLOR=Navy]I'm just guessing #9 is [strike][B]Lady Katana[/B][/strike]....Ok, um, I thought about it, and my guess is the group titled [B]SOAP[/B] *shrug*[/COLOR]

[quote name='Marsh][FONT=Arial']I'm going to guess that #7 is PWNED...=/ Either that or Strongbadia.[/FONT][/quote]
[size=1]Just to warn you, Marsh, you can't include two answers in your post. It looks like you are guessing PWNED, but I just want to make sure, because if you don't specify your guess won't count.

Also, most of the people who have posted their guesses are very, very wrong. Keep trying!

[Veritas]

[size=1][color=darkslategray]Wow, I've missed out on alot since my leave of absense *long story :animeswea * anyways.[/color][/size]
[size=1][color=darkslategray][/color][/size]
[size=1][color=darkslategray]My guess for [b]#8[/b] would have to be [b]SunfallE[/b], I think I remember reading something awhile back about her being Bi-Polar and a falling sun means not quite night time. [/color][/size]
[size=1][color=darkslategray][/color][/size]
[size=1][color=darkslategray]I don't know I'm probably wrong but this was the only one I have something close to a guess on..[/color][/size]

[color=#4B0082]I'm going to assume "amphibian" is misspelled here and not some sort of hint, and guess [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/member.php?u=6462][u]Frog Brigade[/u][/url]. His signature is chalk full of asterisks.[/color]

[TheResplendent]

#8

Not quite lunar,
Not quite bipolar

Gonna go with [b]Eclipse[/b] on this one. Seems to make sense in context though it's very possible i'm wrong as well.
