Contest #51 Results!

[Neve]

Congrats to the Quincies, who got 20 out of 21 :). Espadas also got 20 out of 21, but the Quincies submitted first, so they get the prize (sorry espadas :<). Question 19, incidentally, was the question that nobody got :P

Anyway, the answers were:

Down
1. Stake - both "wager" and "wooden post" mean stake
2. Sixth - their motto
3. Thirteen
4. Kuroro
5. Sumpf
8. Graphics
10. OsakiNana - it's how Komatsu Nana describes her in an early episode (7, I think)
12. Undying
13. Garnet - "Bizarre" indicates an anagram, "argent" is an anagram of "garnet", a garnet is a "gem"
17. Lunar
19. Theme - "Introduction to" - i.e. the start of. Look at the start of the words "the melancholy" (i.e. the first letters) t-h-e-m-e, which is the "dominant idea" in a story

Across
6. Hakufu
7. Mool
8. Gestapo - quotation from 'The Matrix'
9. Ai - SinA/CosA = TanA, inverse tan tan A is A, square root of negative one is i, hence Ai
11. Myselene - "Nocturnal Poetry" is the first line of the song
14. Civilian
15. Neve - Balanced is a synonym for "even", return (i.e. reverse) "even" and you get "Neve", who is, of course, a super moderator
16. Clementine - the quotation is spoken by the character 'Clementine' in the film "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind", which clearly nowhere near enough of you have seen, considering how awesome it is :P
18. Tenth - that was in the Gotei version 2. He led 3rd division in the gotei version 3.
20. Yasu

So, congrats to the Quincies =D. PM me with the three divisions you wish to have 60,000 points removed from - I'll send you your 60,000 point reward after that :).
