Yeesh! I go through the list and write out blanks for each number (filling in those I already knew about), then go through the summary/character-list and fill as many blanks as I can. Go to read the Questions Submitted and...about 80-90% of my guesses were already guessed.
Se la vie (sp?).

Anyway, I do have two left...and they are EXTREME long-shots. But, nothing ventured...
So here they are!

Which five?

Greg responds...

Adam has points for 513-516 and 523.

I didn't have him down for 520, but if this is accurate, then I'm giving him 1 point for that now.

DragonWolf has the point for 521.

Kalafarski has the points for 522.

But they are all correct.
