[COLOR=Blue]Welcome to OtakuBoards Survivor 4 and your Team Thread, [b]Titans[/b]! This thread is meant for only you guys and me, and I hope that you will use this place to communicate with each other rather than private messages. Feel free to talk about whatever you want in this thread, because it all serves to your team spirit.

Here are the profiles of your members:
[indent][strike][B]JJ[/B]
17 years old male from USA/Somewhere in Europe

Weaknesses: Art/Graphics, Discussion/Debates[/strike]

[strike][B]Sakura/Mary[/B]

Your first challenge is quite simple, and it?s the same for all four teams.

[center][size=5]First Challenge: Teaming Up[/size][/center]

In order to build up your team, you will have to decide upon several things. Here?s a task list that you must [b]complete within a week[/b], meaning everything must be done by January 27th.
[indent][b]1.[/b] First things first, each of you must [b]introduce yourself[/b] to your team mates. How you do this is up to you, just at least tell them a little something about yourself.
[b]2.[/b] Having your team named after an administrator doesn?t describe you guys very well, so why don?t you [b]come up with a team name of your own[/b]. It can be whatever you want, within reason, and it will replace the name your team has now. Just don?t make it too long so that it?ll fit everywhere.
[b]3.[/b] Then decide your team?s [b]color[/b] out of those listed in the color-menu. The color must also clearly differ from those of all other teams, so one team cannot have plain red while another has dark red. Its first come first served with this one, so you might want to reserve a color you want at the main thread.
[b]4.[/b] You also have to decide who will be your first [b]Team Captain[/b]. You can do it by voting or by a battle of wills, whatever you choose.
[b]5.[/b] Using your team?s new name and color, make a [b]flag[/b] for your team to replace the holder I put to the top of this post. The flag must be [b]300x100 pixels[/b] in size, no more, no less. The flag [b]must[/b] contain the name and color of your team, but nothing stops you from adding more details to it. You are free to use the flag as a banner in your signature if you so choose.
[b]6.[/b] After these tasks, your chosen [b]captain will report everything[/b] you?ve come up (captain, team name, color and flag) [b]to the main OBS4 thread[/b]. The team with the most effective teamwork, the most describing name and the most creative flag will win this challenge, while the other three teams will face their first Team Council, where three players will be voted off.
[b]7.[/b] Please note that if a player doesn?t post even once during this first challenge, he or she will be [b]replaced by a standby player[/b] before the Team Councils.[/indent]

If any questions rise about this challenge or about the use of this thread, don?t hesitate to ask. Now, [b]Team Dagger, GO![/b][/font]

Alright, here's my plan. We all answer Sandy's question with multiple suggestions towards the team. Once we've all posted once, the most popular answers will win and that's what will be posted. I know that some of you may not like this kind of deciding but we don't exactly have time to argue that. Sorry.

[b]Team Name:[/b] The Absolutes or The Animals. I like the Absolutes because it means flawless, which is what our team will be and I like The Animals because it means that if another team takes a singular animal as their name, it won't matter because we are all of the animals. It helps because than we all get what we want since all our favourite animals are included. :)

EDIT: I also like The Titans. A group of greek... just Wiki it. lol

[b]Team Colour:[/b] I don't care. Any kind of Green or Orange is nice.

[b]Team Flag:[/b] Personally, I'd like to do the flag. I would do it once everything else was decided and I would talk to all of you while doing it so that everyone is happy. If someone else wants to do the flag that's okay. I'm not going to be stubborn with such little time left.

[b]Team Captain:[/b] I'll do it. Any objections? Again, I don't want to be stubborn so we can just do Pick a Number or something.

[b]A little about myself...[/b]
I think all I'm basically doing here is introducing myself to SunfallE since the rest of you know me fairly well. And SunfallE has Knowing You, Knowing Me to get to know me, hehe.

But for the sake of it... I'm 16, 5'10", dirty blonde hair, blue eyes and male. I enjoy gaming and computers aswell as graphic design. I also have a kitty cat. I was born and raised in Canada and I've lived in this town for about 8 years.

I'd like to remind you guys that we are under serious pressure here. If any [i]one[/i] of the other teams gets done first, we have to vote eachother off. And I want us to remain a solid team. I don't want any of this alliance stuff that seperated the team I was in last time. We already have an alliance. The five of us. And if we keep true to that we'll never have to vote another off.

Once all of you guys have posted I'll post here (or the Team Captain, if they want) with the most popular votes and that's what we'll use. Please hurry!

[font=Century Gothic]I'm just popping in to make it clear that this challenge is [i]not[/i] a race. All teams must be done with the challenge within a week, but it doesn't matter how fast they are. So take your time and put your thoughts into this, okay?[/font]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]But you said that last three teams have to vote someone off. :/[/FONT][/COLOR]

EDIT: Or is that every challenge except this one? O_o

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]I got confused because you said...

[quote name='Sage']...but the three losing teams will go into the Team Council to vote out one of their members. The voting happens by private messaging me the name of the one you want out.[/quote]

I thought that meant this challenge aswell. That's my bad. :)[/FONT][/COLOR]

[Color=Darkblue]You're just slyly refering to me, aren't you White? XP

Don't stress out so much, we've got an entire week and two of us have already introduced ourselves! Well...counting the two of us, after everyone's read my post.

Since I've been told I've got a huge ego, I was going to introduce myself first, but then I decided against it, for obvious reasons. So I'm going to steal your format White.

[B]Team Name:[/B] I like the Titans. It makes me think of Hercules, which makes me think of Kingdom Hearts.

[B]Team Colour:[/B] Green is very good. I like green. Go for green.

[B]Team Flag:[/B] I think we should leave it in your hands as well. After that, we can all share in a very pwetty banner with said team flag~, if you're up for it White.

[B]Team Captain:[/B] Beth, I put my faith in you! My votes lives in you!

[B]A little about myself...[/B]

Well, what can I say about myself? I'm light/dark brown haired (depends on the lighting and so on.), brown eyed, 17 and very male, last time I checked. I love to crack jokes when I can, especially when I'm feeling down, if only to get a laugh from others.

I've grown-up all around the states and plan on hopefully finishing school over here in Europe, if only to not have to switch languages after I graduate (I'm lazy like that. :P), plus I'd prefere not to have to leave my friends behind.

I also have a scary obsession with Internet smileys, I just noticed, ehehe.

I look forward to wokriong with you four and here's to Team: *insert name*![/color]

[FONT=Century Gothic]It does mean this challenge as well. There just no mention that the Team that comes up with their decisions [I]first[/I] would win. [I]I[/I] will judge who wins and who loses. The terms of victory are as such:

[INDENT][b]6.[/b] After these tasks, your chosen [b]captain will report everything[/b] you?ve come up (captain, team name, color and flag) [b]to the main OBS4 thread[/b]. The team with the most effective teamwork, the most describing name and the most creative flag will win this challenge, while the other three teams will face their first Team Council, where three players will be voted off.[/INDENT]

So really, there's no rush. ;D[/FONT]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Sandy, you... you [i]you[/i].

Thank god, though. I was starting to get worried. Since there isn't as much a rush, I'd like to get a little more in-dept with my uh.. bio. This is from another thread I posted in... [i]somewhere else[/i]...

[quote][color=#555555][FONT=Tahoma]Whoo. Alright, let me see here...

[indent]My name is Stephen (pronounced with a V sound) and I'm 15 years old (16 in November). All my friends call me Ellerby (Ell-er-bee) because it's my last name, it's got a ring to it, and one of my friend's name is Steve. Ellerby, in case you're wondering, is also what sparked Lrb.

I originally joined the boards under the name [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/member.php?u=4411]Winged-Kid[/url] January 03 and posted an amazing total of 34 times! I mainly stuck around the Arena and even made the famous [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=20468]Elements: The Wonders[/url] thread. Which is probably the first or second Elements RP to ever hit OB. After that I decided I wanted a different name, but being the n00b I was, I made a new account instead of contacting the Admin. Thus, [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/member.php?u=4857]Roket[/url] was born.

Roket was the name of an Albino Porcupine Sonic character that I had created and, of course, the name just had to leave out the "c" to be cool. After an astounding 17 posts, I decided I wanted another name. So, I created §corpio (this is also the last time I ever created an account, don't worry).

After a few months of being §corpio, I got my name changed to Lrb. Under Lrb, I made a whole lot of new friends and even started posting in places other than the Arena. In 2005 I went MIA for 6 months due to extreme MMORPG-itus. When I came back, I changed my name to White. This is also when I started posting in Play It, becoming even more active in it these past 2 or 3 months.

In real life I enjoy playing road hockey, baseball and lacrosse with my friends (a walking stereotype!). Yes, I reside in Ontario, Canada. And yeah, I loves me some maple syrup. I hate the Winter, though. I'd much prefer Summer.

Courses I'm taking mostly revolve around English and Graphics Design. When I get out of High School ([strike]I'm going into Grade 11 tommorow[/strike]) I'll be taking an apprenticeship with a Graphics Designer friend of the family, so I may not be going to College or University for a while.

As far as hobbies go, I love video games. MMOs, RPGs, FPSs, Platformers, Fighting, and Sports games are all up there with what I play. I'm a big Nintendo Fanboy, but I still play all of the systems (I think between my two friends and I, we've played every game out there). And I may be a computer/gaming geek, but I sure don't look the part.[/indent][/FONT]

I'd also like to nominate SunfallE as our Team Leader. I think that having an older and much more mature member as our captain would help greatly. If she's up to it, I'll vote for her.[/font][/color]

[COLOR=Navy][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma]Ahh... I can just smell the awesomeness that this year's Survivor Tournament is reeking already. Well you guys, let's get this road on the show and work together to make it to the very end! :D

Anyways, on to my little sign- up.

[B]Team Name:[/B] KH Fanatics. I mean, come on... that's the coolest name evar, right? Lol just kidding. Stephen would kill me if I put something KH related here, so... I'm putting my vote up for The Titans, but could we make it a little more... original? Like, The Nifty Titans or something? Just to spice it up a little more, but I digress. :P

[B]Team Colour:[/B] I vote for Blue. My heart is set on Blue... vote for frickin' Blue!

[B]Team Captain:[/B] As it's been stated before, I vote for SunfallE or Beth. I don't know her all too well, but she seems like a great person and more mature than any of us youngsters around here.

[B]A Little About Myself:[/B] *Ahem* Let's see here...

My name is Tiana and I originally come from Hawaii, which is my birth place and my long lost love. I'm a mixture of different cultures and races, but I'm mostly just White and Hawaiian. I'm 5'4, I have long brown hair, brown eyes and lightly tanned skin. My mom and her side of the family are Hawaiian, while my dad's side is from Maryland. I have a younger sister and brother, while my other brother is way older than me.

Well, my first username here in the OB was CloudsOnly189 because I was a n00b basically and wanted everyone to know what kind of gal I was. Back then, I didn't really care about grammer or what I wrote if I understood whatI was talking about... and I would always apologize for everything. Over the months, I grew a little more mature and wanted my username to change, so I became Keyblade Wielder and started acting more like myself. I want to become more trustworthy and noble here, so I'm thinking about changing my name again to something different... like Riku. Ah, yes. All my friends know I have the guts to do this. ;D

In real life, I love playing volleyball and cosmic bowling. My interests perk around reading fantasy books, drawing, singing, Graphic Design, going on Missions trips, babysitting and cuddling my two little puppies. :3 Everything else I love is mostly a lot of other people here on the OB: anime, manga, video games; all that other crap.

I'm a Senior in high school right now (07, you know!! :D) and am passing all my classes with good grades. My classes revolve around US Gov, Physics, Chemistry, English, Chorus, Art and Algebra II. I don't hate any of my classes and I love them all. When I go to college, my majors will be Graphic Design and/or Artists and Singing. I want to go in a Church job and go on missions trips to help other people because that's what I love to do.

As for hobbies, I mostly just love to draw and colour my pictures, do some graphic design on PS, sing along with my iPod, play all my awesome video games (like KH) and chat on my laptop. Oh... and I love to read all my books as well.

And on that note, I will be like the sexay Stephen and post a piccu of me. :3

[CENTER][IMG]http://img489.imageshack.us/img489/3333/me7le.png[/IMG][/CENTER]


Well, there you go... my whole life story. XD

As for how the banner/flag goes, if we need someone to do it, I would be most honored to make one if White doesn't pwn me with his crap. >.> As soon as we get our Team Name and Colour going, I'll get on it right away. And if you need any examples of what I can do, just give me a call. C;

Come on, you guys! Let's get this party started and beat the other teams!! :D[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=Navy]Yeah!!! I can feel the excitement of starting in another Survivor already. I hope that all of us will stay united as a team for as long as we're together and that we'll all be posting faithfully in each challenge ^^

[B]Team Name:[/B] I really do like the sound of The Titans, sounds powerful.

[B]Team Colour:[/B] I have to say that I'm with Tiana, and I'd like a shade of Blue, though I quite like Green as well.

[B]Team Flag:[/B] If it wouldn't be too much hassle, maybe Tiana and Stephen could both do the flag, then we can choose. If not, either one is fine by me because both of them are awesome Graphic artists ^__^

[B]Team Captain:[/B] Hmmm, well I don't really know Beth but I'll pick her because she seems like a good decision, seeing that everyone else trusts her. And I hope to get to know you better over the game ^^

[B]A Little About Myself:[/B]
Goodness, where should I start? Uhm, my name's Mary, I'm 17 turning 18 on February 15, and I originally come from Malaysia along with the rest of my family. When I was 18 months old we moved to Australia, my current residents, and since arriving I haven't left the state, which means it'll be my 17th year here in August ><;; I'm the youngest of three, with an older brother and sister. I have dark/light brown hair depending on the lighting, dark brown eyes, glasses, and quite tanned skin.

Coming up is my fourth year at Otakuboards, and when I first arrived my name was Sakuramon. This was a pretty n00bish name and I was very much a n00b when I first arrived here. I had good English, but I used to write Script style and my posts were always really short. After I had improved a LOT I decided to change my name, and I got it changed to Ohkami. I stayed that way for a long time, and I've still been improving, though I chose Sakura as probably my final name because I just like the sound of it, and I like the flower.

As for some of my hobbies; watching anime, watching TV, chatting, reading, manga, playing videogames, listening to music etc. I'm a pretty ordinary person in my opinion, and I'm on OB a whole lot, I always have a page open. I have to say that the main reason I come on OB is for friends and to RP.

Last year was my final year of high school, so now I've graduated and I'm free~! ...Kinda, because now I've been accepted into a University so...looks like more studying for me. But I'm very happy to have gotten into Uni and I'll be doing a course of Communications.

During school my favourite subject was always English or whatever LOTE (Language Other Than English) subject I was taking. Throughout primary school I did Italian, though I've forgotten a lot of it now, and from year 8 through 10 I took Japanese which I still remember quite a bit on. And through school my most hated subjects have always been Maths and Chemistry.

Ehm, I think that's about it....Oh, and like JJ I use a lot of little internet smilies ^^;;[/COLOR]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue]This is going to be so much fun! White has already seen this, but the rest of you have not and a few things have changed since you read it White, so on to the about me part.

Well my real name is Elizabeth, though I usually go by the nickname Beth since I?ve never liked the nickname Liz. I?m 36 years old and I?m currently living in Provo, Utah, though I?ve also lived in Texas and California. And pretty much the entire west coast if you include the time when I was a truck driver. :p

In the last year and a half I took a break from work since my father nearly died from cancer and I stayed with him to help with things while he recovers. Though I?m still living with him and I?m very relived that he has recovered so nicely. Before that I was working for the United States Postal Service, before that I was a Semi Truck Driver and before they outsourced computer jobs to India I worked for Microsoft in their Tech support department. Anyway later this year I will most likely return to school to get another degree, I'll either go for graphic design or computer engineering. I have other legal obligations that require my staying put as well, or I'd just go back to being a Truck Driver.

I date off and on, but I have no one that I consider my boyfriend. As for interests, my father worked for the computer department at BYU so from the very beginning I?ve grown up with a computer in the home and naturally that lead to playing lots of video games. I don?t know much about websites and html, but I can build a computer and fix the blue screen of death! ^_~

I actually was pretty indifferent to anime until I discovered the wonder of subtitles, though I did collect art books. I usually spend my spare time either playing video games, reading science fiction or fantasy (I?m a big Dr. Who fan) or scrap booking as my family has made visiting Yellowstone National park a tradition and I?ve been there seventeen times and have a ton of photos. Anyway when I got hurt on the job two years ago and couldn?t drive for a while I started browsing forums online which eventually lead to here. ^_^

[B]Team Captain:[/B] I was actually thinking about choosing White. However if chosen I will certainly do my best. Something that I think would be made easier by having such awesome people to work with. ^_~

[B]Team Name/Color:[/B] I?m all for The Titans or The Nifty Titans and blue is an awesome color, something that I?m sure Keyblade Wielder would do an awesome job with, you do such beautiful work with graphics. I love the work you do as well White. [/color]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Cool, we've all posted.

[U][b]Confirmed:[/b][/U]

[B]Team Captain:[/B] Beth, you seem to be the favourite. Congrats!

[b]Team Flag:[/b] Here's what'll happen (I hope everyone agrees). KW and I will both create however many flags we want (remember the size restriction). KW will make blue flags (because I know she loves working with blue) and I will make green flags. That'll also settle the colour thing. :)

[U][b]Unconfirmed:[/b][/U]

[b]Team Colour:[/b] Blue and Green. I make green flags and KW makes blue flags. Whichever flag we use decides the colour.

[b]Team Name:[/b] Re-vote. The Titans or The Nifty Titans. I vote The Nifty Titans.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=Navy]Alright, I finished my earlier post so check it out ^^

Congratulations to Beth, I'm sure you'll be a great Team Captain.

For Team Name I'll go with The Titans, no offence but it sounds more powerful than The Nifty Titans. But if it swings that way I don't have a problem.

I have a question:
[strike]When using the banner in our sigs, do we have to use the official one? Or can we choose to use one that was made but wasn't chosen as our official?[/strike]

[B]EDIT:[/B] Duh, my bad ><;; Thanks for the answer Sandy, when I read the answer I hit my forehead and had a "Duh!" moment.

And when they come about I hope everyone uses the banner as a sig to show Team Spirit ^__^ Go Team![/COLOR]

[/COLOR][/QUOTE]

[FONT=Century Gothic]I have no power over what you put in your signature, Mary. ;D (Well, unless it breaks the almighty Rules of OB.) Just remember that if another team chooses the color you didn't choose, and then you use a banner of that color, it [I]might[/I] confuse people on what team you belong to, but not necessarily.

But yeah, you're free to do as you wish. ;D[/FONT]

[COLOR=Navy][SIZE=1]So team, how about we try to get to know each other more while we wait for everyone to respond to confirm the team name? Hopefully we can get that decided soon so Stephen and Tiana can get started on the banner. To reiterate, my vote for the name goes to [B]The Titans[/B].

Uhm, maybe some questions? Anyone can add more in their next posts but I guess I'll start...

[B]What's your favourite colour and why?[/B]
My favourite colour has to be shades of Blue, though I don't like bright shades like aqua. I'm not quite sure why I like the colour blue, I've always been attracted to it since I was young. Going through primary school when we used to have "factions" I always ended up in Blue, so I kinda gained blue pride from there. I really enjoy navy blue because it's dark and I tend to lean more toward the dark spectrum of things. I also really like the literal colour of the sky, not the shade "sky blue" but the actual colour. It's deep and endless, so I dunno, I just really like it.

[B]What's your favourite real animal and why?[/B]
My favourite animal would have to be the Wolf. Again I'm not 100% sure why I like it. But they're so cool, and powerful. I also feel that they represent me in a way, that they can stand strong on their own, but at the same time they can work well in a pack. They also have only one large pack that they trust explicitly and will hunt with. I see them as loyal, fierce, strong, powerful. Things that I am and/or hope to be. I've always been a bit like that, a bit of a loner in life but I still have a large group of friends that I hang around with and trust a lot, and I'm loyal to my friends. That's all I can think of reason-wise for now, though I may think of something else.

[B]What's your favourite hobby and why?[/B]
As silly as this sounds, and perhaps unbelievable, my main hobby is actually RPing right here in OB. I dropped it for a month or so in the end of last year because I had my major exams of high school, but now I'm trying to get back into it while I have the time before I start Uni. But yeah, I'm usually involved in at least one RP at a time, and have been in up to.....9 simultaneously I think. RPing is my passion, has been since I first arrived at Otakuboards. When I first came I had no idea what it was and I was quite a shocker of a newbie as I said in my earlier post, but I learnt and the Square is my OB home, even if the main reason I joined was for anime XD.

But speaking outside of OB...hm, it'd probably be watching tv/anime/movies and listening to music, or playing videogames. These are just things I do to pass time and to chill out and relax for a while. I guess it's become habit since all these things are easily accessible and perfect when you kinda just want to laze around.[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue]I?ve updated the main thread with our progress so far and seeing that no two teams can have the same color and that The Laugh Out Louds have taken Green I have taken the other color we were considering and reserved it. So our team color is Blue. ^_~ So I hope you weren?t done yet White seeing that you?ll need to work with Blue instead of Green.

As for the team name, I?m inclined to go with the Titans. It just seems more simple and yet powerful.

[B]What?s your favorite color and why?[/B]

I don?t really have a favorite color, but I do have a preference, whether it?s a blue, green, red, brown or purple, I tend to favor warm shades of those colors. Anything that has a more earthy feel to how it blends together is what I like.

[B]What?s your favorite real animal and why?[/B]

Definitely dogs. I grew up with dogs as a kid, and other than the time when I was working as a truck driver, I?ve never had a time where there wasn?t some dog in my life, whether it?s my own or someone else?s pet.

[B]What?s your Favorite hobby and why?[/B]

Mine would have to be scrap booking. Between vacations to Yellowstone National Park to all the time I spent driving in the west part of the US, I have so many memories of places that I?ve been and I love taking the time to capture those moments. After that would come my other hobbies such as anime, video games and reading.

I'll be sure to edit in some questions once I think of some. [/COLOR]

[COLOR=Navy][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma]Sweet, our team colour is blue! High five, Mary! *high fives you* :D

Anyway, until we have our team name up and running, I won't make the banner until then. My graphic sense has been on a sugar high and I've been making banners for random people, so I hope the one that I make looks fine.

And everyone, thank you for your compliments and love about my graphic design. It's what I need to keep going into the direction for the job that I really want. Thank you so much.

*Ahem* Now then, here's what I need to post.

[B]Team Name:[/B] Ahh yes, Stephen, I KNEW you would absolutely love Nifty Titans. It's like I have this thing that tells me what you like or not. Anyway, I would have to say that my vote swings towards the name [B]The Nifty Titans[/B]. I mean, heck, I made that name up in the first place and it sounds more original than The Titans. But if it goes the other way, I'll be alright with that. The Titans does sound a bit more... shall I say it, steroid induced masculinity? :D

As for the questions that Mary has put in, here are ze answers!

[B]What?s your favorite color and why?[/B]

Blue period. That's it, blue. I mean, what other colour is there that is so hot and cool at the same time, ne?

[B]What?s your favorite real animal and why?[/B]

As how wild animals go, I would have to say the Tiger because they're awesome and I absolutely love their stripes and colours. Besides, they could kill anything in seconds flat and who doesn't love some bleedy blood? As for pets, I will definitely say the dog. They play around with you, love you, make you cry when they run away and they are absolutely adorable. I can't say anything about cats... *cough*... but again, I digress.

What?s your Favorite hobby and why?[/B]

Hmm.. I have a lot of hobbies, but I would have to say graphic designing. I'm always on my computer in Photoshop, making random things and giving them to people. I do it not only for myself, but for anyone who asks me. :D

And Beth, I absolutely adore you. Scrap booking is kick ass and don't listen to anyone else who says the opposite. XD

Ohh.. my own questions, yay!

[B]If you have one, what is your favorite video game?[/B]

Kingdom Hearts, hands down. Everyone who knows me knows this... and I'm sorry. XD

[B]Do you have a favorite manga artist? If so, why? If not, what is your favorite manga?[/B]

My favorite manga-kas would have to be Nobuhiro Watsuki and Tite Kubo. They make absolutely wonderful works and their art is simply astonishing.

And, last but not least...
[B]
If you could pick any job in the world, which one would you do?[/B]

Work at Disneyworld. XD Nah. Probably an Artist or a Singer.

Ohmigawdanswerthesequestions!! :D And as soon as the Team Name is chosen, I shall start on my version of our banner.

Good luck, Stephen... YOU'RE GONNA NEED IT. >D[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]So, we've got two votes for The Nifty Titans and two votes for The Titans. Seems like JJ is the tie-breaker.

[B]What?s your favorite color and why?[/B]

My favourite colour is white. Duh. I know it's not technically a colour but whatever. It's just so.. empty. I love it. And it matches [i]everything[/i]. I also like grey and green. Hehe.

[B]What?s your favorite real animal and why?[/B]

Good question, I really like those giant [url=http://www.polyu.edu.hk/~or/tortoise.jpg]Tortoise's[/url]. They're so slow and yet they've existed for such a long time. However they aren't nearly as cool as...

Ostriches! Yes, you heard it right. White's favourite animal is the [url=http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/comdesc/images/ostrich.jpg]Ostrich[/url]. I think it would really cool if I could throw a saddle on an ostrich on one and ride it but alas, I do not think it's possible.

A close third is the [url=http://fohn.net/elephant-pictures-facts/images/elephant-closeup-1024x768.jpg]Elephant[/url].

[B]What?s your Favorite hobby and why?[/B]

GAMING. Hands down the thing I do most. I game alone, I game with family, I game with friends and I game with strangers. I do it all. PC gaming and console gaming, online and offline gaming. It's all there.

[B]If you have one, what is your favorite video game?[/B]

Super Mario Bros. All Stars. It's got the best of all the mario sidescrollers on one cartridge. You could also get the one that comes with Super Mario World for an even better collection.

[B]Do you have a favorite manga artist? If so, why? If not, what is your favorite manga?[/B]

I think I've read manga once.

[B]If you could pick any job in the world, which one would you do?[/B]

Ostrich jockey.

[b]Lays Chips: Can you eat just one?[/b]

No. :([/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=Navy]I quite like the flag you made, Stephen, though the fist with the thunder makes me think of a football team we have in Australia ><;;; Will you be making others? And Tiana too, she has exams, poor thing. Good luck (again)!!

[B]If you have one, what is your favourite videogame?[/B]
Hmmm, I'm not quite sure...Well currently I'm obsessed with Elite Beat Agents/Osu Tatakae Ouendan. But usually it'd be one from the Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts series.

[B]Do you have a favorite manga artist? If so, why? If not, what is your favorite manga?[/B]
Hm, I have quite a few...CLAMP of course (CCS, TCR, XxXHolic, etc.), Yoshizumi Wataru (Marmalade Boy), Tite Kubo (Bleach), Yukiru Yugusaki (DNAngel), Fumiya Sato (artist for Kindaichi Case Files). I could keep going but those are the ones at the top of my list I think ^^;.

[B]If you could pick any job in the world, which one would you do?[/B]
Oooooh, not too sure...Uhm...maybe an animal tamer. Seems kinda fun, although it's dangerous...

[B]Lays Chips: Can you eat just one?[/B]
Yep ^__^ Don't really like Lays.

[B]Can you do anything freaky?[/B] (Other people think it's really strange)
I can touch my eyeball. I wear contacts sometimes so it's fine. I can twist my elbow further around than anyone I've ever met (I can't really describe it in words). And I can bend all the fingers of my right hand all the way back so they touch my arm/wrist.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue]White, that flag looks awesome. ^_^ Time to answer the new questions.

[B]If you have one, what is your favorite video game?[/B]

I have to choose? ;_ ; If that?s the case then it would have to be The Legend of Zelda. I positively love that series. And the latest release of Twilight Princess has just made that love even stronger.
[B]
Do you have a favorite manga artist? If so, why? [/B]

My favorite is Kaimu Tachibana for their gorgeous artwork in the series Rasen no Kakera/Pieces of a Spiral. Just take a look: [URL=http://img293.imageshack.us/img293/514/0902le.jpg]Click![/URL]

If I could do what I wanted, there?s an art project I?ve had in mind for a while. Not that I would actually do, but in relation to what other great artists have done.
[B]
Lays Chips: Can you eat just one?[/B]

Yup. I?ve never been a big fan of potato chips, I rarely eat them.
[B]
Can you do anything freaky?[/B]

I have a very good evil laugh.
[B]
Let?s see?. What?s your favorite type of show and why?[/B]

For myself, I love science fiction. Especially shows like Dr Who. I?d love to be able to either travel in time or in space. ^_^[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Navy]Looks like we need to make a decision very soon on everything and post them up quick smart...

Uhm, personally I think our name should be [B]The Titans[/B], seeing as that's the name Stephen put on his banners.

As for the Team flag. If there won't be any more attempts I'd go for the first attempt. If there's time though, maybe Stephen could adjust it? I like the square background effect in the second, but like everything else in the first.

These are my own opinions, of course we don't have to follow them. Ultimately the decision mostly relies on Beth since she's Team Captain. I'm just putting this forth because we're running out of time and we don't want to lose automatically because of indecision.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue]Actually since I did not want us to lose by default I went ahead and edited my post in the main thread with the finished one White sent us. That way if KW didn't get theirs done in time we wouldn't lose by accident. ^_~

I'll be checking back later this evening to see if they have finished theirs and at that point I can simply edit the post again to reflect the change if we decide to go with the other one.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Navy]Well team, looks like a new challenge.

If there's 96 pages, and 4 of us, maybe we can do 24 pages each? Then once someone's finished their 24 try to help out others, probably those that aren't being as active.

Each time anyone finds one we should post a link here so we can keep them all in one place.

Currently I'm working from the front inwards (1-24). It's up to you guys to choose a batch of 24 pages and to work from there.

Good luck guys, hope we can get this done soon.

[B]EDIT:[/B] I got one! [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=54262]Gods Among Us[/url]

[B]EDIT2:[/B] One of my friends was browsing threads earlier and found one [URL=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=3590]Otaku War[/URL]

[B]EDIT3:[/B] Got another! Yay. [URL=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=48099]RahXephon & Evangelion (Angels & Gods)[/URL]

[B]EDIT4:[/B] Alright, I've finished my 24 and later I'll continue by starting on the next 24. But so far our letters are [B]G O[/B] and [B]R[/B][/COLOR]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue][quote name='Sakura][COLOR=Navy']Currently I'm working from the front inwards (1-24). It's up to you guys to choose a batch of 24 pages and to work from there.[/COLOR][/quote]Good work. ;) And since you started at the begining I started at the very end. I've gone through pages 70 -96 Though I only found two and that includes the [URL=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=3590]Otaku War [/URL] that you already listed. The other one I found was: [URL=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=8162]Brutality(IT SHALL LIVE AGAIN!!!!!) [/URL]

So depending on how far you got that leaves pages 25-69 to be checked. And the letters so far are...

[COLOR=Navy]For a difference I went from 52 to 69. And in those travels I only found one.

[URL=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=24355]The Tale of Untold: Beginning of Ends[/URL]

Eh, but now I'll continue along my original path, Going into 26 onwards.

[strike]So letters are: [B]G O R B T[/B][/strike]

We can do this guys! When I go to bed I'll post where I stopped so anyone else can continue.

[B]EDIT:[/B] Got another, [URL=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=40596]Hunt For Ashobi[/URL]

[strike]New letter count is: [B]G O R B T H[/B][/strike]

[B]EDIT4:[/B] I've now finished, having met up with 52 but I am depressed to discover that I only have 9 threads, not 10, 11 or 12. I'm thinking I've missed one somewhere...I'm re-checking the 52-69 right now, but the ninth thread is [URL=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=26875]Bionicle: The Evil has Arrived[/URL]

[strike]Making the letter count: [B]G O R B T H E I B[/B][/strike]

[B]EDIT5:[/B] SUCCESS! I have found number 10, which I had overlooked. [URL=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=17361]Road Trip[/URL]. I'm unsure if there are any more so I'll continue to 69 just to make sure.

I'm tired as hell right now and so glad that we've atleast found 10 making the letter count: [B]G O R B T H E I B R[/B]

[B]EDIT6:[/B] Well it looks like we only have 10. Though I think Argo and LOLs may have 12 since I've seen so many of them searching through.

Running our 10 letters through a Anagram Generator I got several things but the one that really stuck out to me was [B]BIG BROTHER[/B] since the hint Sandy gave us was 'spectacular name'.

I'm really sorry to do this, and sorry if any of you don't like me after it but I've decided to post in the game thread with this guess in case one of the other teams solve it soon. Apologies and I'll accept all your wrath and hatred later.

And sorry if it kinda seems I'm over ruling you Beth. I don't mean it in that way at all.[/COLOR]
