Who is this?

[Jimmy]

Inspired by a cheesebin thread, I have decided to make this thread.

The basic concept is that I post the picture of someone, and then you people ask yes or no questions untill you work out who it is. If you ask a question and the answer is yes, then you get a point on the leaderboard. Whoever posts the person's name first wins 5 points on the leaderboard.

First person- http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/9923/piccyfw5.jpg

edit: it was just brought to my attention that the name of that person was in the URL :P. The person is changed.

[also, if you have an idea for a person, PM me]

Leaderboard-

Pie-Badger-Man- 8
Snoon- 7
Smartie- 5 | Raary- 5 | Chazmataz- 5
Poliobear- 1 | Roach- 1 | Albie_123- 1 | CrazyMLC- 1
