Guessing Game

Okay, finally, here they are. 14 pictures. 14 guesses.

For time zone fairness purposes, the original idea about "the first person in the comments to get the most correct answers, wins" thing has to go out the door. AND, for fairness, no peaking at the picture title - most are hidden kinds of titles, but even so...

So, here's the deal: this time tomorrow, I'll check all the guesses (first set by each person) and the ones that are tied for most correct answers, I'll put little pieces of paper with the conestant's names(literally) in a golf cap, and The Blondster, without looking, will pick the winner for the EE-Book-Chat book of his or her choice.

So, here is the list of the fourteen of us who are pictured (anyone can play the guessing game). Enjoy!!!

omg, I am, like, sooo stuck on #2.

This is so funny! Didn't we all have great hair? Working now, but will be back later for a proper guessing session.

Blogger has been acting funny since 2pm UK time.

In the case of pic 2, I'm guessing it's been involved in some kind of interdimensional image warp with Spawnofsatan.com.

Honestly, except for #2, which is me, I have no idea who anyone is.

McKoala said...

Eek, have just realised if I guess now then I will give away my own secret self...maybe we should email them to you?

McKoala said...

By the way, Aerin, LOL!

pacatrue said...

McK has a good point, though I think I'm a bit obvious. Yes, I'm #2 as well. I'll email you some guesses, Robin.

Paca, I knew we were long lost twins...

Anonymous said...

And actually it occurs to me I don't know what most of y'all look like now....

Robin B. said...

Damn. That's true! OK- yeah- email me with your answers.

Do you all want me to post everyone's answers tomorrow afternoon after the drawing and the post of the actual answers, so we can have a good grin?

Phoenix Sullivan said...

Awww, I want a little #6 of my own.

I'll email my guesses, too, Rob. Sorry I didn't provide a pic, but the feathers would have been a dead giveaway anyway...

pacatrue said...

Sounds good, Robin.

And now I'm on my way to kindergarten. My wife's said I act like I'm in k- for years, so might as well go there now.

Blogless Troll said...

I swear I just saw #2 on a milk carton.

Robin, that seems like a lot of work for you to post our answers and the real ones. Could we all email you our answers, you choose a winner, then when you post the actual ones, we all pinky swear that we'll put up our answers in the comments?

Kiersten White said...

Oh my gosh. I have no idea where to even start. Except I know who I *want* a few of them to be.

Sarah Laurenson said...

e-mailing my guesses. I think I've got one right, maybe two.

JaneyV said...

I know one of them for sure!

As to the rest.....let the guessing begin.

McKoala said...

I'm pretty sure about five of them. I think. As for the rest, hmmm, tough stuff.

I'm happy to pinky swear and put my guesses up afterwards. And the reasons why I made some of them!

fairyhedgehog said...

I've emailed.

They're all random guesses except for one.

writtenwyrdd said...

I feel like #6 most mornings, but I would be that one's Whirl.

I wonder if you-know-who feels a bit, um, besmirched being #2 and all?

writtenwyrdd said...

And I forgot to say I haven't a clue on any of them except the guys because there are only 3 of them, not counting #2.

pacatrue said...

BT, Pete, Whirl, and I would like to disagree that there are only 3 guys excluding #2.

Robin B. said...

Ha!

OK- if you guys pinky swear to come back and talk about who ya picked as whom, in the comments, I'll just announce the winner later on this afternoon, after the votes are in.

Sorry- I can't get here before 6:00pm-6:30 pm Eastern. Work so gets in the way!

Chris Eldin said...

OMG!

All of these are adorable, but I really LOVE the last one!! Who *is* that?

:-)

Chris Eldin said...

Whoever is number 5? My younger son has that EXACT hair! Except lighter shade. He's a bit on the shorter side, so he likes it puffy to give him heighth.

Chris Eldin said...

Just one last thing--Who is number 1? That expression! OMG. She has an interesting life ahead of her!
:-)

Sylvia said...

These are great! I have no clue. Well, there's a couple where I have strong suspicions.

I'm embarrassed to admit that I didn't spot Robin in that lot at all! It wasn't until I got to the end that I realised I was missing someone.

I might have been a bit random with the boys. Sorry boys.

I think posting our answers along with what influenced our decision is a great idea. I've saved mine so I can.

PJD said...

Yeah, what Paca said.

One, two, five!
Three, sir!
Three!

Holy cow, after about my first three guesses (myself and the two gimmes), I just dragged out my old D&D dice and kept rolling until there weren't any left to match up. Sort of like how I help my 6th grade son with his homework that involves matching Column A with Column B. "Just draw a few lines. It's one of your classmate's that's grading it anyway, so it's a random result anyway."

Thanks Robin. I hope I picked you out of the lineup properly. If I didn't, I hope you won't hold it against me.

All right I'm emailing mine now - honestly, I have no clue. Although whoever is #12 is my new online crush - how CUTE is that pic!?!? (And I agree with Chris on #14 - adorable)

Robin B. said...

I'm counting all the stuff now....
