It is possible to be sure. It's just that I could correctly answer in both the affirmative and negative.
It could be shapeshifting except it also doesn't have magical powers
OK, I said "try to think broader", but don't think that far out of the box! :lol:

Re: My resignation at webDiplomacy

I also have a different recollection of the old Forum, although I may be thinking of a different time period than captainmeme. But while I don't think that the old Forum "was just a back and forth of constant abuse", I do agree with every other word that captainmeme wrote. Letting users like krellin...

Sorry that I can't provide hints. The scene with this entity is extremely famous and many of you probably know the dialogue in the scene from memory.

Technically, this was asked after the 20 questions were used up, but I'll let it slide.

How many questions are left?
One.
I just counted up and can confirm that 19 questions have been used up.

Those who haven't guessed yet should expend their free guesses.

After the last question you all will get more five guesses.

Then I win. :zultar:

Re: XX Questions - Game XCVII

Interested what you mean about it being intentionally uncomfortable JECE, don't quite follow
I'm not sure what's so hard to follow, to be honest. How might celebrating Armistice Day make you feel when you know that there is a full-scale war in Europe?

Wikipedia specifically calls Rex a dog.
Be careful here. There is more than one reason why it might not be clear-cut whether or not this is a real type of creature. Consider scenarios where you could reasonably answer either yes or no.

Re: International Women's Day

I didn't say that gimix was saying that he only respects women one day per year. That's what you said, and I didn't dignify your comment with a response.

I was just pointing out that the feeling of discomfort is by design, not an unintended side effect.

I always feel a bit uncomfortable when I think women should be respected for the remaining 364 days of the year far more than they actually are, not just today.
