[indent][i]A year after the fact,

I'm going to guess [b]OtakuBoards Nifty Fifty[/b].

[i]Out to get OtakuBoards' most hated enemies,[/i]
[i]In Anthology, and beyond.[/i][/QUOTE][color=#503f86]My guess is [b]n00b Hunter[/b].

[quote][b]#6[/b]


More colorful than not,
Has there ever been more of a misnomer?
One would think they could name themselves correctly in the first place.[/quote]

[size=1]I see the word colorful, which leads me to think it's the user [b]CoLoR_Me_EviL [/b]....I'm probably wrong.[/size]

[Katana]

[size=1][color=royalblue][b]#4[/b]
[i]Artist, Bebopper, and theOtaku.[/i]

Syk3 is my most logical guess.

[strike]What, you thought I was serious last time?[/strike][/color][/size]

[Desbreko]

[size=1][b]#3[/b]
[i]A year after the fact,
They decide what was memorable and what was not.[/i][/size]

[color=#4B0082]Being a bit more specific here, I guess the Nifty Fifty Committee, since they're the ones who actually decide who/what gets included.[/color]

[SIZE=1]Hmm well the one thing you always here to keep away from kids is plastic bags, so I'm going to take a guess and say "[B]Wrapped in Plastic[/B]" if it's still around.[/SIZE]

[i][indent]This ex-mod has been providing direction to the boards for ages,
And has the temper of a desert snake.[/indent][/i]

[b]#2[/b]
[i][indent]A legendary Adventure bringing together pilots, fighters and pop-stars,
Only to tear them apart for the ultimate prize. Bragging rights.[/indent][/i]

[kalon]

I'll say number 5 is [B]sakurasuka[/B].

[Papa Smurf]

#1 is James, the Site Director. "Desert snake" is a reference to his character in Kill Adam, known as Desert Taipan.

If I do win this, I at least don't want to eventually stay far enough ahead that the number of points required to get ahead of my score is more than the number of weeks that are actually [i]left[/i] (thus making all those weeks totally useless for determining a winner, despite still retaining the same level of fun anyway), so I'm going to sit this one out. =)

[i]Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin van-guarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it is my very good honor to meet you and you may call me [b]V[/b].[/i]

So dark the con of man.[/COLOR]

Buenas tardes from an internet café in Fuengirola, Spain! I'm going to have to stop my vacation for a moment to correct that the answer to the riddle is in fact [B]Final Fantastic Survivor[/B], out of the three I've hosted. ;D

And the riddle in question is [B]#2[/B].

[Quote=#4]

[SIZE=1]That had to be the more obvious and yet subtle riddle posted so far, if not for pure luck I'd probably never have guessed it. [b]Each "code" is an acronym for every font on Otakuboards.[/b] For instance A is Arial, where as AB is Arial Black. I repeat, a most challenging riddle.[/SIZE]

[Sakura]

[COLOR=Navy]I actually think the answer to [B]#2[/B] is [B]OtakuBoards Survivor: Game On![/B][/COLOR]
