Yep, we absolute need one of these. Well, we also need a Movie screenshot guessing thread, but i didn't want to start two at once. And imo, guessing anime screenshots is easier. Which means, yep, i've admitted it, i watch plenty of anime (guilty pleasure). Although it's probably more accurate to say i watch anything if it's SF, and almost anything if it's F. (which already is a tip about what kind of screenshots i can post)
Maybe this belongs in the games subforum (since it's a game) but i thought i'd try it here first where all the videophiles hang out. So i hope it's not too unwelcome and won't get booted down there. :
Anyway, rules are simple:
1. Post a screenshot. Pick a nice one. Not a mugshot of the main character, but not exactly half a pixel out of the background of a 3-second scene either.
2. Anyone with an idea what it is can post a guess. If someone above you already guessed, but you think it's something else, feel free to post your guess without waiting for an answer first.
3. If no-one guessed correctly for a day (or a lot of people guessed wrongly, use your own judgement) post another screenshot. Up to three screenshot (and thus three days) per series. Make them progressively easier if possible. Maybe a minor recurring character or memorable scenery for the first, and a main character for the third.
4. If someone guessed correctly (and got confirmation) they're next up to post a screenshot or declare an open round. If the series hasn't been identified after the third screenshot has been up for a day, the next round is also up for grabs. Although it would still be nice to hear the solution.
Addendum: 6. If you guess correctly but aren't available at least once a day for the next three days, please declare an open round. If no new pictures or updates come for two days or more, it's an open round, so the game doesn't stall.
