Tod is the name of the Fox in the novel and Disney movie The Fox and the Hound. So, technically, this puzzle could've been solved by simply googling Tod then "character name." Fox is like the only character that makes any sort of sense. So, this could've been solved in like 2 seconds without any sort of advanced reasoning at all.

Well, if you searched youtube for Makoto and Street Fighter, the first result is one of J's matches, but you figured out it was J from the tutorial videos on the Makoto page. Also, if you search bink the Scrubs clip is the first result, also.
Are you kidding? In order to solve this puzzle, you only need to search google and youtube.
Just because you don't have your GED doesn't mean we have to lower our standards.

By the way, I had this question earlier, but it was completely ignored: are the past hints archived in any way so that people who are interested in figuring them out for themselves can look at them?
I'm assuming that with finals and the holidays, the discussion about Fox from the SBR has been minimal. Most of them probably had quite a bit of traveling to do, in addition to spending time with friends and family. They don't want to shaft a character's community by putting out a crappy weekly discussion with nothing useful in it...that's resulted in some pretty intense QQ'ing in the past.
Relax, it's going to come sooner or later. I've generally been impressed with these discussions, they're doing a positive thing for the whole community, and getting nothing in return but QQ's and general negativity. Cut 'em some slack.
(Not directed specifically at Riko, just at everyone posting worthless stuff like "Y thar no talk bout da Fox yet?". It's seriously really spammy and annoying.)

Unfortunately, as far as I know the hints aren't archived. If anyone would know, it's SamuraiPanda. Overswarm did a couple of hints involving website puzzles, you could ask him if they're still around. Otherwise, I think you might be outta luck. Sorry.
If you want some of the more recent ones, you can go to the character specific discussion thread. Sometimes the admin will post about his hint, or tell how you were supposed to solve it. Of course, reading that might ruin the idea of "solving it by yourself" as you said, but if you are looking for some recent ones for friends you should look at the thread posted by the summary.
I'm tired of this nonsense, and I've already been PM'd by several people asking for the answer, so I'm going to post the answer to the puzzle to save myself some effort. I'll post it in spoiler format so you can figure it out for yourself if you want. And no, Sliq didn't tell me himself, but once you hear the answer and reasoning, there's little doubt as to who it is.
The first hint is that a Makoto guide is the exact hint with some things replaced. The thing to learn from the guide is that "J" is one of the best Makoto players in Japan, so just remember that J is important.
If you start looking around and googling for J and all of the characters remaining (e.g. J Wario, J Ness, etc.), you'll find Michael J. Fox. That's one way to solve the puzzle. I found this early on, but didn't think it would be that easy.
Another way is to use the hints that Sliq started to give out yesterday. "Bink" (Sliq's first hint) is a word used over and over in Season 3, Episode 13 of Scrubs, which is written by Bill Lawrence (Sliq's second hint). There is a guest doctor in that episode, who is played by Michael J. Fox.
It's Fox.
Should be revealing it soon anyway, but there you go.
