According to the responses so far, it seems that Fran’s outfit can hit a QUADRUPLE BINGO!
Depending on one’s opinion about what counts for those previously unchecked squares in yesterday’s “Easter-themed” bingo post, Fran WINS THE BINGO up to four times!
A few followers pointed out three potentially eligible squares more to cross.
Just look (bolded the proposed additional squares for convenience):

YOU CAN GET BARED BACK SHE HAS SHOULDER BLADES OUT FOR SOME REASON????!?!

Hey on the Fran bingo card, you can also mark that her nipples poke through. I’ve seen close ups of her chest, and you can see that it’s molded to her nipples. I love Fran but her armor is ridiculous.
kyrosion reblogged your post To add some “Easter bunny” flavor toda… and added:
Look at the way the top is designed; there’s nothing holding the front up. It’s kinda pretending to be a corset-type thing, but since they cut the stomach out, the bottom part is just dead weight rather than contributing support. The whole outfit should be dragging her breasts down, if it answered to gravity… As is, it’s certainly not lending any support, regardless of whether she’s likely to pop out a boob (which I’d say she is, but that’s more subjective).
So, without futher ado, here’s the updated bingo card for Fran!
…72% of the squares and FOUR bingos!
I’m convinced we came across a record breaker.

edit: One more square was pointed out by raezii
I’d also add that she wears that outfit while travelling in the Paramina Rift and there is definitely a blizzard happening 1/3 of the time… ie basically naked in cold climate http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100421010742/finalfantasy/images/6/6f/Ice_Elemental.jpg
Funcom’s “Mankini-Gate” double standard
pkudude99 submitted:
An interesting article over at Massively about the recent “Mankini” April Fool’s joke that Funcom put in, but then their upper management pulled: http://massively.joystiq.com/2014/04/10/chaos-theory-funcom-flubbed-it-with-the-secret-worlds-mankinig/
I think it was stupid of their management to do it, as does the article author. Why is this allowed for a woman:
But not this for a man:
There actually is a male version of that Egyptian outfit that shows quite a bit of skin too, but nothing like it does for the female version,but there are plenty of female-only outfits that are very scanty too. The worst of the lot is this one:
That’s why the April Fool’s joke worked so well — Funcom was poking fun at their own propensity for the double-standard. And that’s why I’m so upset with their management’s decision to pull the mankini outfit.
For grins, here’s a shot a blogger friend of mine took before they got yanked:
You’ll note the 3rd male in the shot is wearing a traditional speedo, and that’s been left in the game. I don’t see that it exposes any less skin than the mankini. I just don’t get it.
Well I suppose it was too much to hope that every executive in gaming would be as cool as Mark Long.
But really, after people have laughed and supported the joke is not the time to shut it down and try to pretend that it never happened.
Especially since the whole point of a mankini is that you can never unsee it.

Apparently fans speculated it to be a copyright issue (but it’s highly unlikely)… Maybe Funcom wanted to be safe than sorry for not asking 20th Century Fox about official Borat licensing or something? ;P
