View Full Version : Identify the PM'er game
yoopers
2006-03-03, 03:58 PM
Remember this (http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=41029)? Questions was always a favorite traveling game of mine so let's give this a try. Within the span of 50 questions or Monday, 2/6/06, whichever comes first, can you identify the 'dude' who sent me the PM? The only info I have about the PM'er is what he or she has posted publically. I'll try to answer honestly to the best of my ability but only in yes or no answers. When you ask a question, please try to help me count down the number of questions so I don't lose my place.
Prize of being named the prestigious Grand Poobah of Thread 41029 to the winner.
Are you in? Off we go!

He doesn't list an age or birthday in his public profile. But by the way he talks and who he seems to hang out with in the forums, my guess is that he is under 30 years of age...just my guess though.

Questionable... what's "other compensation"
That comes up in the building code quite often. Other compensation is payment in exchange for services or products by things other than money, i.e., a pizza, or three goats and a chicken. Another word often used is 'other consideration'.
But just to make it fair, Mr. In-The-Know, your in-the-know needs to be out.

Actually, I don't think you can use the PM system without being registered. But only the oracle would know that for sure. :)

Both have rocks in our pointed heads and a very wide base?
Question: Is it someone GILD and Blake have openly flirted with in JC, and someone EthylTheTree has acted very possessive over?
Without a thorough review of all of JC and from what I've managed to glean from recent (say, past six months) temperatures in the forums, I'd say no.

No.
Q#10
I can see a problem developing with identifying the avatar, though. If he suddenly changes it, my answers regarding avatars may become wrong. I guess that's just part of the game though. It's like the ball hitting the ref and being misdirected in a soccer game. The ref's considered part of the field.
So the better answer to the question is that as of this date, he avatar has nothing to do with unicycling as far as I can see. I've made a copy of his current avatar and stored it on my hard drive.
So Mr. PMer, if you're watching or reading, please don't change your avatar until the game is through.
