I only wish I could produce something like that. I am a huge 30STM fan but 'twas not my gift xD

Lucky Duck! I saw them in October and they were fantastic, I hope to see them again soon

So I got a silly cute little poem. Sadly it wasn't one of those poems, how much I wish, but it certainly wasn't what I expected and made me laugh. Thank you.

Now to the guessing part and here is where I become a jerk or anti-social.

In my interest list, there were 25 people, characters or celebrities. They all came from different areas of expression and media. Of those, only the following were used in the poem.

Natalie Portman
Olivia Wilde
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Ashley Greene
John Barrowman
Malcolm Reynolds
Dean Winchester
Castiel
Yvvone Strahovski
Doctor Horrible
Cillian Murphy
Christopher Eccleston
Summer Glau
The Tenth Doctor

The people not on the list are the most important as they told me what the sender was not familiar with. Note that neither model (Katie Fey or Gemma Ward) was used, nor the anime characters (Sanji, C.C., Kalifa, or Nico Robin), nor the musicians (Alizée or Olafur Arnalds). Had it been graphics, I would have understood leaving the first two groups out (try putting "C.C. Code Geass" or "Katie Fey" in Google Image search) This means the sender is somewhat delicate in their tastes of female modesty. However, the three other people not on the list are also significant (Ozymindas, Milla Jovovich, and Kate Beckett). Ozymindas was a character from Watchmen, an acclaimed comic book. Milla Jovovich is an actress/model, famous for her roles in Resident Evil. And Kate Beckett is the female lead in the show, Castle. Thus this tells me that the sender is not familiar with those three shows/movies. This, combined with the above mentioned topics, eliminates six from the list of potential senders.

The people on the list is however equally important. I am infamous for my adoration of Natalie Portman so her inclusion doesn't tell me anything. The rest does. The Tenth Doctor as well as Christopher Eccleston and John Barrowman, all three are from the show, Doctor Who, so she must be familiar with the show. Oh and yes, it's a she. I was the male to have participated this year. Firefly, as well, so good taste in science fiction as evidenced by the use of Summer Glau and Malcolm Reynolds. Also a Joss Whedon fan apparently because she used Doctor Horrible. Dean Winchester and Castiel of Supernatural, Olivia Wilde of House, and Yvvone Strahovski of Chuck leads me to conclude that the sender watches a lot of American television shows or at least is familiar with them. Incidentally the last person, Ashley Greene, is most famous for her role in Twilight, which means the sender is either a fan of those movies or is familiar as well. Which leads me to highly believe the sender is an American teenage girl. Which does some things to continually narrow things down.

Now the fact this is a poem not a large deluge of graphics surprised me. And the comments on this thread indicates a certain person expecting a certain reaction from me regarding this. To that I say, it is likely Aramel Elyanwe. However, I also want to say Nurr. Either of you please speak.

And please forgive this rant. I felt like channeling some Holmes.

I love 30STM but sadly, it 'twas not me either.

and Lothy, you're uber welcome - it was fun since I know a lot about you and which charries are your favorites, etc. Yay for being sneaky!

ETA: Caunion, it was not me

Snapfish! Hm. Back to the drawing board I suppose.

Although, if I was to take another shot in the dark...

Nur-poo? Or JF-sie?

The only problem that I have with this gift is that now I have absolutely no idea which one to use for my siggy.

I also have no idea who made them. This is a very random shot in the dark, but I'm going to guess that Ennostiel made them.

All I am going to say is I made one of the ones on this page xD

By the way Haldir, I am in love with your Braveheart banner... quite brilliant <3

So that narrows it down for you guys a bit
