Um…okay…right.

Moving on, because holding non sequitor conversations is not my cup of tea…

Hey, hosts and hostesses, what do you guys have in terms of food?

Sorry, ladies. I’ve already guessed on you, ppr… and dot’s not making any more sense to me with additional posts. And trends I thought I was picking up on get knocked out with each successive post.

Hey, **Idle!** How many people do we have left in this party, anyways?

Partygoers who have (incorrect) guesses on them

Partygoers with no guesses yet

And **dot** , I have said in the other topic that yours is probably the hardest to see, so yeah, if you want to be a bit more obvious, that’s fine.

[oog]Excellent!

Hint: Don’t just look at the posts in isolation, look at the whole, especially in relation to the other posts. There is a pattern. I also left a lot of “breadcrumbs”, to borrow the Mafia term.[/oog]

Man…you could hear a pin drop in here. I mean, I guess I don’t mind the quiet, but it is more intellectually stimulating to have someone to talk to.

[oog] When things quiet down in the ER tonight, I’ll start mapping your posts versus the Zodiac Killer’s body locations, I promise [/oog]

Please, dot, my apologies for the party winding down too soon. Perhaps we could watch a movie… ‘Serenity’, perhaps? No… that probably will bring up some bad memories for you. How about 'Hang ‘em High’? Or perhaps [‘The Hangman’?](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0242499/)
