just about the same Alundra ;)
So it says were able to guess again but does that mean once we complete the latest guess it will count as the latest guess?

Quote from: karlbenson on January 02, 2008, 01:15:38 PMYou're right ;D

I'm guessing thats a setup/prank. Naming the images as different people and seeing who would fall for it.
Quote
It may be a pre-planned prank, in which case all bets are off.
Any references as to who's who by smf-team could be completely wrong.
Quote from: karlbenson on January 02, 2008, 07:37:05 PM
All the staff may have known that there was going to be a 'guess-who' game.
And may also have been persuaded to make comments saying 'person x' is in fact 'person y'.
So when we looked at the pictures and comments, we would believe them.
Although we may be going too far with this conspiracy theory.

omg....YOUR SO HORRIBLE!! you put doubts into my head!!
now i only know 3 for sure!!
Quote from: karlbenson on January 02, 2008, 08:23:20 PMYeah you start thinking that way. I also started to think the color of there shirts may represent there SMF rank but I'm not so sure about that... lol And sometimes its hard to tell a persons age.
If your start second guessing yourself, you may end up feeling like your on an episode of Numb3rs.
- Did they carefully and randomly assign the names to the pictures?
> In which case can you be sure that none of the pictures match upto their real-person.
> Or we they pulling the double bluff
- Did they try to be random, in which case they've probably opted for the least likely, furthest away or most comedic name assignment.

Maybe a link to the image itself, but I can't promise a physical copy upfront. We have >120,000 members. Though unlikely, there's the chance that 90% or more may play. And mailing out that many photos may take more time than one would think :D But I love your spirit. :D

what if you got it right the 5th time and someone got the same score right after that, and then you got it right the 17th time as well...the other person will win..
Quote from: karlbenson on January 05, 2008, 08:38:35 PMI think the best part is at the end seeing which team member is who. See if their looks match up with their personalities. :D

I doubt anyone would get more than 75%.
Statistically it would be improbable (without some kind of extra knowledge)

How can you vote Shadow82x if you were there and met the team? Or did you just signed up but never made it? ;)
QuoteI think he forgot to enter the text before you redo it. After a refresh. But once your done it says "Your vote has been counted. Try again?"
What text did you edit Thantos? It is still not clear to me whether we are or not allowed to guess more than once?

Quote from: Alundra on January 07, 2008, 04:49:31 PM
i knew runics because he sent me one ages ago in irc, and same with jays. i knew rick and thantos from their roadtrip and i checked ricks from the facebook fanclub. i got a few from the fanclub, and most from their websites-a few of them had photo galleries.

Quote from: Thantos on January 07, 2008, 05:58:53 PMWhew there are a lot of surprises there! I knew Alundra would win. :P I'm surprised I placed second though. :P
And the results are in:
Alundra got 12/16 right for the win!
followed by shadow82x with 8, cindyk with 7, and karlbenson with 6
The team member that was guessed correctly the most often was Thantos with 32 out of 65 guesses right. Oldiesmann was the guessed correctly the least number of times with only 8 guesses being correct.
The answers are:
Thantos
