Two people went with Prof. Bruttenholm and get 2 points each.
foggy
fujishig

More specifically, fujishig said "Bruttenholm (assuming past members/founders count even if we never really see them in action, otherwise the only ones I can think of are Liz and Abe, put me down for Liz)." I counted that as Bruttenholm.

Eh? How do you figure? He's listed as an agent right there!

While we wait for others to weigh in on the Panya question (and she's still not a guy, orangecrush -- go ahead and talk your way out of that one!) ...


Kate Corrigan was worth 2 points for Nogura and 4 points for Nick Danger, who used his second Google.

From the description of BPRD Vol 8: Killing Ground, posted on the Dark Horse website:
Ahh, the point of contention being "guy". Yeah, I'll have to side with JasonF on this one. If orangecrush just said "mummy", there might be a case.

Ben Daimio was worth the points indicated below once Google penalties are applied.
CaptainMarvel 4 points
brianluvdvd 6 points
The Bus 4 points
RKillgore 5 points

I was using guy in the gender neutral way. Like “hey guys, how is it going?”

Here's one I believe to be wrong:

Lobster Johnson, answered by dadaluholla

My research indicates that he was never a member of BPRD. Fans?

OK, so it sounds like the consensus is to count "the mummy guy" as Panya, which seems to be correct. Any dissenters?

Speaking of unique answers, I was wrong earlier when I said there was one. There are actually two (three, counting orangecrush's answer). Here's one:

burnside986 was the only person to mention Roger.

The other unique answer?

Johann Kraus, that lovable bundle of ectoplasm, was worth 2 points
ivelostr2
Rockmjd23

Damnit JasonF!

How often to you approach an individual woman with "Hey, guy"?

3 points for those of you who went with Liz.
Mboyd
fumanstan
Lokimok

Also this was a terrible, terrible question.

Our other unique was actually:

Bud Waller. Congratulations, brainee. Note that brainee gets 4 fewer points than he would have due to Google.

I was doing mine, and I had put Hellboy, because i figured anyone who knew what the BPRD was, was going to put a different character, but then i saw that someone else actually explained what the BPRD was by using Hellboy as an example, so I went back and edited my answer...i hope my second choice was better...

I take back what I said before. Blame Bus.

Well, I think I've learned that the googles aren't worth it if you know an answer but just think its bad. Sadly, I still would've needed it for the final question because I had no frikkin' idea who the gods Shazam invoked were.

Yeah ... I kind of wanted to change mine once that discussion started, but since I had already seen a dozen or so submissions, I figured that wouldn't be kosher. Oh well.

So, it looks like the final verdict is that we have 3 uniques:
Bud Waller
Roger
Panya

And one wrong answer:
Lobster Johnson

Anyone want to argue about any of those, particularly Panya or Lobster Johnson?

Panya is not a guy.

Pending final calls on the BPRD question, our uniques were worth -6 points. Our wrong answer(s) were definitely worth 8. Which means ...

1 The Bus -62
2 foggy -59
3 fujishig -53
4 Mboyd -51
5 orangecrush -45
6 JasonF -44
7 maxfisher -43

Hmmmm ....

Maybe we should mark orangecrush as wrong ....
