[Jeremy Roberts]

I'll go with Andy Baker. Though I could be completely off on this one.

[JVN]

Definitely Travis Hoffman.

[Katie Reynolds]

Andy Baker

[Andy Baker]

I agree with JVN... it looks like a mini-T. Hoffman. I wonder how many acorns he has stored in his cheeks?


AB

[Amanda Morrison]

Travis, who is an adorable little guy. :)

[Billfred]

Yeah, I see the resemblance. Travis.

(of course, I saw the resemblance between a young Heidi and Amanda Morrison, so don't bet on me)

[Alex Cormier]

Hoffman, down to the nose

[Jeff Rodriguez]

All aboard the Travis Train!!

Travis Hoffman it is.

[Alex Pelan]

T. Hoffman. That seems to be the general direction.

[Mike M.]

Yea I think i gotta go with Travis Hoffman.

[Beth Sweet]

Andy's not denying it, I'm going with Andy Baker

[Greg Ross]

I'll be different, and say Aidan Browne.

[Pat Fairbank]

I'll say Andy Baker.

[shyra1353]

I'm with Greg. I think it's Aidan Browne.

[DCA Fan]

Gah I'm torn between Travis and Aidan....uhhh....I'll go with Travis.

[Travis Hoffman]

I think that pic does bear a strong resemblance to one Andy Baker. Nice outfit, too - those rural Midwesterners sure know how to dress their kids up in style!

[EricH]

Andy Baker.

[Rich Kressly]

I think it's Baker
I don't trust him. Not one bit

[Brandon Martus]

Travis Hoffman

[tkwetzel]

Andy Baker.

[ClintDog]

Paul Copioli

[Mike Schroeder]

Travis definatly Travis

[Conor Ryan]

Hoffman, Travis Hoffman

[Chris Sturrock]

I'll go with andy baker, I see a slight resemblance in the eyes...

[Lisa Perez]

I say JVN

[Travis Hoffman]

OK so like since no one has posted in this thread for four days, since it should be about time to announce the winners anyway, and since it's been a week and voting should be closing soon (if it hasn't already), I'm just going to take a chance and officially post a vote (the first post I made in this thread was NOT a vote, if you read it carefully. At worst, it was undesirable extra discussion and should have been deleted by the moderator, but that's not my problem MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA). If I get the point, groovy, if not, no big whoop.

I can say without a doubt that this handsome dude is me, and I had exactly zero acorns in my cheeks at the time, Mr. Baker!

I'm doing this because to my knowledge, there's no explicit rule that prevents a person from voting for him or herself in this contest. Perhaps the contest grand poobahs will take action to close this loophole, naming it the "Travis Hoffman rule" in my honor (or dishonor). :rolleyes:

It goes without saying that any votes following this post should not be counted (I doubt any more were forthcoming anyway, which is why I waited so long to post this), which illustrates the most obvious problem with caption contest subjects voting for themselves. Perhaps common sense would dictate that these subjects would keep their mouths shut and not bring stupid issues like this to the table, but then again, I do not possess much of that quality. :)

[dlavery]

I don't care what Travis says, I still think it is Baker. :D

[Brandon Martus]

I like it that when my picture comes up I can vote for someone else and throw some people off. I hope the Hoffman Loophole will still allow this. :)

[Rich Kressly]

Brandon is correct. The loophole stays. If you choose to give yourself up, all votes after still count ... and ...
I still reserve the right not to trust Andy :rolleyes:
... and ...
It's officially up to our scorekeeper, but I believe your first post will be counted as your guess Travis :D

[Wetzel]

Travis. :D

"Nice outfit, too - those rural Midwesterners sure know how to dress their kids up in style!"

My parents are rural Midwesterners as well, as are probably tens of thousands of other parents out there. This was a general statement made to throw off the gullible masses, nothing more!

SO JOSH, ROCK THE VOTE - give Trav his one point. Pleeeeeze. :p

Users only get 1 vote per mentor
1st correct guess gets 2 points
All subsequent correct guesses get 1 point
Any user to guess all 3 pics correctly gets 1 "bonus" point
Discussion can take place as voting takes place, but only on the same post you vote in

I think that since discussion must be in the same post as your guess, your first post is the one that counts as a guess and the second post is unwanted. Just my interpretation of the rules.

[Greg Needel]

i think it is baker

[Karthik]

Round 2 is now closed. The correct answer is Travis Hoffman.

I've decided to award Travis is one point, as he did not make a guess in his initial post. From now on, your official guess must come in your initial post in the thread. And yes, we can call this the "Travis Rule" of the "Hoffman (loop)Hole"
