That would be such a pointless waste, though. Even if it is just one thin penny that you’re losing. ---

[QUOTE=dotchan] So, **Taber** , do you feel a special affinity for the vine? (Host notes: His last post about humors and being smited seems to suggest that he’s Dionysus, god of wine…but obviously I need to poke at him more.) [/QUOTE] Anyone see a reason we shouldn’t make this an official guess? ---

Because I’m now so used to the Firefly Mafia filters: confound! _shakes fist_ I haven’t gotten a better read on the other players at all. (To recap, the current non-official guesses, adding a few from reread: \*Malacandra - I’ve reread him, and he sounds more like some sort of fictional adventurer in the vein of Victorian era (except the mention of Prince Harry places him in the present) \*Taber - one (or more) of the Greek gods, especially Dionysis, god of wine \*Diggitcamara - inexperienced traveling salesman \*fachverwirrt - might be quoting from movies and/or stage plays? (I’m going to be busy rereading the Conspiracy Mafia tonight, would one of you other hosts mind googling the contents of his posts so far?) \*Eureka - misuses homonyms. \*fluiddrid - quotes from product labels. Incorrect guesses: \*Kat must include the name of another Doper in her posts \*PriceGuy must answer questions with another question Diomedes, I believe Aesiron has yet to post in this thread at all. Would you mind prodding him for me?) ---
