Make an obscure refrence to a fora member, the person who guesses the right person, then makes another obscure refrence to a different fora member.

Answers in the form "Who is -----". cuz its cool.

No repeats.



This person likes a girl who has won the national spelling bee in Canada.

Edit: May not guess yourself.

Except in my case it's my dad who's the good photographer. And I'm a guy (and also not gay).

I'll just take the easy answer here. Who is Belial?

This person goes to the same school as I do.

A bit of googling found that it's called the Poplite. I don't know anybody here with that name. (if it turns out that that's an acceptable answer, my previous question stands)

Sorry guys, I was in bed.

The answer is Popliteal

It's funny that someone chose that for a name, because I remember thinking how fun it sounded in my anatomy classes. This was a hard one, because they're not exactly the most prolific poster.

That would mean that they were top poster in that time period since generally your post makes it to the end of the thread. So from the stats page that would be Belial.

Can't think of an obscure question right now.
