Gonta think one question quote is OK. They might second guess it to be honest.
Gonta thank everyone for all their work!
Next time I talk to someone I'm going to interrupt myself mid sentence and say "hey my mouth is up here!" XD

I kinda like the idea of the question being there, I don't think they'd see us doing that on purpose. I doubt it'll make a huge difference though.

Monomi's Mediators
The order of these 10 bios was randomized.
Name: Bartov Clemson Talent: Ultimate Bridge Player Quote: "Ugh. I'm so bored." Bio: Bartov learned the game of Bridge quite recently, stumbling upon it when his mother forced him to spend a summer with his ailing grandparents. It did not take long for them to realize Bartov had a knack for the game, as he quickly picked up the rules and strategy. However, he never wanted to play. Finding mastery so quickly just did not inspire him, and even with the worst partner he seemed to be able to figure out what to do most of the time. Still, his parents saw that spark in him, and would not let him give it up, so they entered him into tournaments and even the Olympic games. Awards and accolades followed wherever he went, but all he wanted to do was escape and play video games in his room. He wishes for nothing more than to play any other game with the people he loves, but they want him to get better at Bridge alone.
Name: Himari Itō Talent: Ultimate Poet Quote: "Poems are just written dreams." Bio: Himari has always been a painfully shy girl. She grew up preferring a quiet life of reading, writing and dreaming instead of toys, games and parties She started writing short stories at an early age, and as she got older she found she really enjoyed poetry. The way she could express herself with not just the words themselves but their shape and flow was mesmerizing! In an effort to be supportive, her parents began secretly submitting some of her works to poetry journals and magazines, hoping the recognition would help her come out of her shell. When Himari found out she was furious, but by then the damage had been done: her poetry was a hit and her name was being discussed as a future Poet Laureate.
Name: Tamari Urbani Talent: Ultimate Bird Watcher Quote: "Bird! Shh!" Bio: Tamari has always had an interest in birds. With a pair of binoculars, she moves silently into the world trying to note all kinds of rare and unique bird species, checking them off in her journals. She's discovered several new, never before seen species, too! A hawk, a quail, and several tiny songbirds are all named after her or her friends. Tamari is willing to go to any lengths to see the rarest of birds. She's been known to rappel down cliffs, hang off of helicopters, and even tried to invent her own pair of wings to fly herself up to meet them in the air. She is determined to complete some sort of flying machine to get her to new heights and give her a bird's eye view of birds.
Name: Doris Liber Talent: Ultimate Hacker Quote: "0110101001" Bio: Doris, from a young age, knew she was not like the other girls. She was technically savvy, spending time to understand the inner workings of computers, and from there, understanding systems and networks. Her days were spent indoors, rain or shine, typing away, learning more and more. One day, her parents revealed that they were having financial troubles. But Doris had a solution! She set up a bank account and took some money from it, paying off all the bills. Soon after, the government came to take little Doris away, to train her to be a white hat hacking queen.
Name: Yuti Nakazawa Talent: Ultimate Drag Racer Quote: "Taste the rubber!" Bio: Yuti once stole his parents' car at the young age of 4, immediately crashing it. The thrill of the crash should have traumatized him, but instead spurred a desire to go faster than ever before. A natural born thrill seeker, Yuti took every opportunity he could to race, claiming that he would never back down from a challenge. By the age of 16, Yuti had become an online sensation drag racing with his modified Trueno 86. Limited only by the cash needed for a better vehicle, he decided to take to drift battles until he can one day become king of the drag racing circuit!
Name: Julien Deschamps Talent: Ultimate Taste Tester Quote: "Too much salt!" Bio: Julien loves one thing: food. Growing up in his family's restaurant he discovered the ability to pick out certain ingredients from dishes when he noticed the new quiche recipe had too much egg in it. From that day onward whenever a new recipe was to be introduced, his parents asked him to make sure it was perfect. The restaurant soon grew in fame, and attracted travelers from all around the world. With the restaurant's newfound fame, Julien became a sort of culinary icon for his ability to dissect difficult flavors within any dish presented to him. This led to chefs coming to the restaurant in an attempt to stump his taste buds, but if you ask him, you need to stump more than his tongue!
Name: Loni Lorris Talent: Ultimate Stand-up Comedian Quote: "You think that's funny?" Bio: Loni has been alone since childhood, living with several different foster parents. To quell the feelings of loneliness, she started to make fun of her situation. Soon, she discovered her talent for making her painful experiences relatable to people who had never experienced them. And, she discovered she was hilarious! At first it was the stage at schools growing up, but she found herself at her local comedy clubs, bringing the house down with laughter. She found comfort sharing her pain and delivering it in a way to make people laugh and think at the same time. Less lonely in a crowd, maybe someday she won't feel lonely at all.
Name: BB Voncamp Talent: Ultimate Violinist Quote: "It's a string thing." Bio: BB grew up on classical music, listening to Bach and Mozart while still in the womb. When he first got his hands on a stringed instrument, there was no question he was a prodigy. At 6 he was classified as a virtuoso, at 8 he was selling out concert halls. But soon the rock and roll lifestyle of a classical violinist caught up to him. Getting addicted to sugar and partying until an hour after bedtime took him to a dark place. After getting clean and following proper bedtime rules, he vowed not to perform again. But when he's alone in his room, if you listen close, you can hear his violin.
Name: Yula Chomski Talent: Ultimate Pro Wrestler Quote: "It's time for the chair!" Bio: Yula always had a strong build ever since she was young, and getting teased for it only made her mad. The wrestling team at her school gave her some relief as she competed against the boys and slammed them to the ground time and time again. But she was often disqualified because her moves were too dramatic. So she did what any kid would do...she put on a mask and lied about her age to get onto a pro-wrestling circuit. Due to her slight accent and her muscular form, she was cast as a heel which concerned her at first. But as long as she got to rough up the others a little before getting pinned, she embraced her role, reveling in the chance to play a villain. Let them all fear her might!
Name: Pamela Pilltover Talent: Ultimate Dog Breeder Quote: "Sit! Good boy." Bio: Pamela has spent a lot of time breeding puppies and training them to be award winning dogs. She's never quite won best in show, but she's always come close. Had she continued entering competitions, she probably would have won a few by now. But after a near death experience while being bit by a rabid dog, she came back with mystical powers! At least, she claims to be a pet psychic now, quizzically attributing these powers to the bite. Now she travels around with her pack of pooches, trying to find dogs in distress and helping them have a better relationship with their owners. Maybe someday she will return to the dog show circuit, but for now she is happy to have her own reality show.

Grammatical error here. Missing period: " She grew up preferring a quiet life of reading, writing and dreaming instead of toys, games and parties She" Name: Himari Itō Talent: Ultimate Poet Quote: "Poems are just written dreams." Bio: Himari has always been a painfully shy girl. She grew up preferring a quiet life of reading, writing and dreaming instead of toys, games and parties She started writing short stories at an early age, and as she got older she found she really enjoyed poetry.

POET DRAG RACER TASTE TESTER
From first do not pass the 7 sentence test. Gonta alarms going off!
In addition, Poet has a weird character in the name and is misisng punctuation. Major red flags for Gonta.
Drag Racer mentions age, also major red flags because none of other stories mention ages.

This one I'm suspicious of. Entirely about her parents troubles and the "But Doris had a solution!" gives me pause. No glaring errors though.

Oh dear. Sentence count. Perhaps theirs had a different style to them.

Gonta will hold off on sticking 100% to the 7 sentence count theory... but so far we know all 7 of ours had exactly 7 sentences, and exactly 7 of theirs have 7 sentences.
The last set of bios should give us a clue as to whether or not that theory is onto something.

Those seem a bit too similar imo.

From the Kingpins, in random order
Name: Lili Scooter Talent: Ultimate Puzzle Solver Quote: "I jig-saw that..." Bio: Lili Scooter has always been bright, especially when it comes to patterns and piecing things together. Although she's never quite gotten around to recording it, she can solve a Rubik's cube in less than two seconds! She will spend her time mastering a puzzle, and then move, but when she comes to it years later, she will always remember how to solve it. Time and time again, her genius has earned her lots of recognition. Bored of most conventional puzzles, she's turned her attention towards people. She's started to learn how to analyze patterns of behavior, how people connect with each other, and what they can accomplish if pushed in a certain direction. Humanity is the greatest mystery of all, but Lili thinks she's starting to unravel it...
Name: Tanya Miette Talent: Ultimate Boardgamer Quote: "I always make the best move!" Bio: Always excited and ready for more, Tanya is always down to play the latest and greatest in board games! She even donated the couch in her living room to make room for more gaming tables, so she can have more friends over, all the time! Of course, sometimes her overbearing nature causes people to be driven away, and she ends up hurting for companions and friends to game with, but that's when she turns her attention inside, and plays even more on her tablet, chock full of simulated games. Tanya doesn't terribly like those much though, as they're missing the social aspect. When it all comes down to it, all this gaming is just an excuse for her to make, keep, and grow friends.
Name: Abi Bains Talent: Ultimate Thereminist Quote: "Can't touch this." Bio: Not many people know what a theremin is, but Abi is destined to change that! As a young girl, she received quite a strange gift: a musical instrument that requires no physical contact. Fascinated by it, she started to play with it every night, letting the eerie sounds echo through the halls of her house. When her parents tried to put a stop to her playing, that only fed her desire to learn it more. Soon, she could play it by ear, her hands carefully still in the right positions to make the right sounds. Her Youtube channel quickly gained many followers as she was able to rapidly turn out requests for songs. Still, while not everyone knows who she is or what a theremin is, those that do happen to love her.
Name: Lisa Iwaname Talent: Ultimate Demolitionist Quote: "Controlled destruction." Bio: To her teachers, Lisa appeared to be a troublemaker without any real potential. After Lisa was expelled for completely destroying her school's playground, she found herself sneaking into construction sites at night when she wasn't helping with her father's business. The workers were baffled to find in the morning that the old buildings marked for destruction had destroyed themselves! One night, the site manager stayed late and watched Lisa's work in action, and admired her efficiency, but was concerned by her lack of regard for safety regulations. She was allowed to train as an apprentice, and has since learned to work with and even command people three times her age! To Lisa, there's nothing more satisfying then seeing a day's work come crashing down.
Name: Kia Lyamoto Talent: Ultimate Planner Quote: "Let me check my schedule." Bio: Kia has had a planner since she was old enough to write, which was admittedly earlier than most of her peers. She's always been a shining star in and out of the classroom, though she would never boast about it. Kia hopes to someday be in charge of writing the schedules for everyone on Earth to make the world a better, more organized place. She has all of her planners organized by year on her bookshelf and is in the process of writing a book called "A Better Planner, a Better Life.” Though she's incredibly bossy and will force organization into your life, those that know her say that they wouldn't be where they are without her.
Name: Lemon Lamoire Talent: Ultimate Newscaster Quote: "Good evening. I'm Lemon Lamoire." Bio: Lemon studied journalism from a young age, writing for the school paper and making expose documentaries about school. He was soon applying to work in a newsroom, but his lack of real-world qualifications kept him out, and the letters of encouragement he would get in response soon started to turn into flat-out refusals the older he got. But then his growth spurt hit early. With a little make-up, a suit, and a faked video reel, he was able to moonlight in the newsroom while still going to middle school. Working his way up, he's received several accommodations and finally got the eye of the producer of the local evening show. First he was just a substitute, but he got to experience a taste of being on the air, reading from the prompter, pontificating the news. Now, he's the regular Saturday night anchor.
Name: Orra Disantia Talent: Ultimate Spice Girl Quote: "Bring the heat!" Bio: Orra was born in a faraway land and moved around a lot with her whole family including her grandmother, her aunts, and her cousins. Each of them knew a thing or two about cooking, and each brought their own unique flavors to the dishes. But then her father and mother took her somewhere else to grow roots and settle down, and all those culinary voices disappeared from her life. Orra has always done her best to honor them with her cuisine. Putting the love of her family who taught her helped her win competition after competition. From a neighborhood chili cook-off to a televised reality show, her skill at knowing what spices to use -- and how much -- has brought her many victories. She may not have her influencers by her side, but they're always with her in spirit!
Name: Dorian Morti Talent: Ultimate Book Collector Quote: "A page-turner!" Bio: Dorian is not much of a talker or a socializer. He would prefer to spend his time in his reading room, reading. With such a voracious appetite for books, it did not take him long to realize he needed shelves upon shelves to store his precious forms of entertainment and escape. But his lust for knowledge grew, and he wanted more and more. And the regular mass produced books were no longer sating him. Soon, he started to add rarer and rarer ones to his collection by visiting black markets or by simply burgling them. So far, he's been lucky, but his desire for more and more might quickly be catching up to him...
Name: Orion Spellkey Talent: Ultimate Astrologer Quote: "It's in the stars..." Bio: Written in the stars is your destiny, and Orion can read it. As a child, he was always fascinated with stars and planets. Meeting an oracle on a visit to the circus quickly put him on the path of divination himself. After trying tarot, the I Ching, and other methods, he finally settled on a new age art form that combined with his love of heavenly bodies: astrology. His keen sense of the universe has allowed him to write some uncanny horoscopes and star charts, and it has not gone unnoticed. Soon, he was being sought after by celebrities and royalty of many nations. The only future the stars will not divulge to him is his own...
Name: Blana York Talent: Ultimate Plumber Quote: "Go flush yourself." Bio: Blana was born in the swamp regions of the south and has always had an affinity for water. At a young age, she worked for her father's plumbing company. She was often praised for using the wrenches and pipes better than the adults. Having to assert herself as a teenager in a male-dominated industry was tough, but Blana is no pushover! Quite the opposite: as a rowdy tomboy, she's found a way to fit in with the guys. Although she has not earned special accolades for her plumbing, she has helped take her father's business to new levels with her skills. It's only a matter of time before she is recognized as one of the nation's best toilet uncloggers.

Name: Yuti Nakazawa Talent: Ultimate Drag Racer Quote: "Taste the rubber!" Bio: Yuti once stole his parents' car at the young age of 4, immediately crashing it. The thrill of the crash should have traumatized him, but instead spurred a desire to go faster than ever before. A natural born thrill seeker, Yuti took every opportunity he could to race, claiming that he would never back down from a challenge. By the age of 16, Yuti had become an online sensation drag racing with his modified Trueno 86. Limited only by the cash needed for a better vehicle, he decided to take to drift battles until he can one day become king of the drag racing circuit! On top of the 7 sentence rule, the last sentence here is really awkward and changes tense at one point.

Post by Gonta Gokuhara on Aug 21, 2018 2:48:00 GMT
Gonta is trying really hard not to have tunnel vision. But Gonta see big pattern and is hard not to see it.
After looking through the second one again I still think we're onto something.
BOARDGAMER - overall it doesn't feel right to me DEMOLITIONIST - I think the part about someone wathcing her and taking her on as an apprentice is odd, this isn't something we've seen in any of the confirmed true stories, it's usually about the character coming into their own PLANNER - overall this is convincing, but the last sentence that she'll "force organization into your life" seems a bit out of tense compared to the others, typically the bios aren't talking AT the reader
...
Gonta is open to other ideas! ^_^ We do have to rank them after all!

Post by Gonta Gokuhara on Aug 21, 2018 2:55:10 GMT
Ok some things Gonta noticed outside 7 sentence rule: Spice Girl is odd for two reasons: "Putting the love of her family who taught her helped her win competition after competition." - Gonta no think this is a sentence ??? " -- and how much -- " - Gonta think it weird the -- was used, then again, I would think they would review their bios and not put something so out of place in their bio .

The whole "make, keep, and grow friends" thing in the Boardgamer one feels off to me. Ultimately, I think y'all have solved this.
