Another picture wall here, but this one has a theme. All of the pictures are of characters, most of them people. I won't tell you who they are at first, but after 3 days, I will make a post listing the identities of all of the characters featured on this wall. This way, people who don't know who half of the characters are won't find themselves completely stuck. Here are the rules (mostly familiar; anything new is highlighted in red):
:![]() Questions answered: Person #16 is Art Garfunkel. Person #6 is Leon Trotsky. Person #15 is John Lennon. Person #20 is Lance Armstrong. Main combos: 1) 2 / 11 / 12 / 19: All blond(e)-haired.

1/5/14/20 - The character is wearing something on their head. 10/11/13/17 - All from North America (I'm pretty sure Jamaica qualifies as North America). Edited by Pyrite, Oct 16 2012, 01:41 PM.

I can allow all five of those as invented combos. I'll also give Daniel a 10-point bonus for the character wearing something, and Adam a 10-point bonus for the character holding something. Good start! |

@Adam: I can allow that for another 25 points. @Daniel: I'm not sure whether I should allow that, TBH. It's a pretty trivial detail. |

The reasoning is correct for a main combo, but not the combo. Also, I'm counting that as two guesses .

Unfortunately, I can't accept that: it contains a main combo, and the reasoning is too similar. |

You can still make additional guesses after your 4th, but you lose 10 points if it's incorrect. It's up to you whether you think it's worth the risk, or whether you think it would be safer to wait until tomorrow. |

A lot to get through, then .Daniel: Your guess for the 'blonde' main combo is correct. The person in picture 16 is Art Garfunkel. I can't allow the 'green' combo, I'm afraid. Of those, only #9 is predominantly green. Adam: You're thinking along the right lines with 'deceased': there is a combo consisting entirely of dead people, where the reasoning has something to do with their deaths, but it's more specific. Unfortunately, only two of those people are called Michael. |

Does that apply for everyone though? I was saying "Michael" as a reasoning. |

Well, I meant that only two of the ones from your combo are called Michael - but, in fact, there are only two Michaels on the whole wall. |

That's actually a repeat of your previous guess for that combo. I won't count it towards your four guesses for today, though. |
