Only two guesses since my update and both are wrong. **lobstermonster** , that’s not **Mad** ’s quirk and **Diomedes** , that’s not **Elendil’s Heir** ’s quirk (which it seems you know by now :p)

Remember, though, you may say, **Dio** , what you believe it to be to your fellow Hosts still (and always). You just can’t actually guess yourself again.

And **Malacandra** is the ONLY person left who can guess **Mad** ’s disorder/quirk. So I’d take some time in observing for awhile because once that guess is gone, game’s over.

Oh, hooray!

I think the old **Heir** is a bit hard of hearing, my cohosts… you’ll notice he misinterprets a word from each post as a rhyming or near word: dance/dunce… get/wet, etc.

Am I right in thinking, my friend, that in an earlier post you came right out and said who you are… right in front of everyone… and nobody noticed? :dubious:

Is this all-caps shtick the best you can do to represent the kind of voice that might thunder from a fiery mountain while you were, oh, say, dictating commandments? 😃

Mal, I think you’re giving our guest a little too much credit here. I don’t think he’s tired, I think **he’s just incredibly lazy**.

::Sigh:: There is too much ignorance to fight at this party. Soon my eyes/ears will bleed from all of it. I suppose there is nothing to be done except punish those who do not obey the rules.

I’m unsure if it’s that, or if he’s just getting on a bit. When he arrived at the party he complained about not being able to read the house number.

Oh, my. I’m sorry to have been gone so long and left you all like that. I only meant to step out for a minute, but there were a bunch of people who I just _had_ to talk to, you know how it is.
