OG "guess the character in the envelope" Contest
Bryce once and a while has a great idea for a contest... long ago... this was something we used to do. Now it's back!

We picked an anime character for the new-run of the contest... we wrote it down on a piece of paper, and sealed it up in an envelope. You the listener must figure out who the "character in the envelope" is...

The prize will be a pack of goodies, and maybe something more *hint*hint*cough*...

What are the rules? They're pretty simple. First off, we will only accept one guess per email, once a week. If you put more than one guess, in an email, we will only take the first guess.

You cannot enter more than once an week, and not more than once per email. Please pay attention to the use of the word "character", it could be a person, animal, car, mech, bryce, paul, a tree, a rock (assuming they are portrayed as "character" some how), almost anything.

Each week will reveal a little more about the "character in the envelope" in an anime, until someone guesses it right, and wins.

As usual listen to the show for more details, and email your guesses to: contests@otakugeneration.com, and use the subject line of: OG CHARACTER IN THE ENVELOPE CONTEST

We insist at least 10 people give their guesses, before we give another clue. We don't mean 10 total, we mean 10 guesses within 1 weeks time.

Have and enjoy!
