Time to guess for 1 full pt, i.e. the last one:
14)Russia
14)Israel
14)Germany
14)Bermuda
14)Galapagos Isles
14)Phillipines
14)Ecuador
14)The City of Lost Angels, CA, USA
14)Berlin
14)Korea
14)Alaska
14)Tierra Del Fuego (southern tip of South America)
14)Iceland
If any is correct, say something and i'll do something probably

Ascertained 14 Clans:

Alright, this better net at least 13 full, because research is quite annoying. If not, I will suicide.
I probably should not post 1 big one, because then I help others know the good ones, but oh well. I don't really need a gargoyles prize anyway, so in the spirit of communism, I say, someone get this done, the state does not care who. Everyone else will be shot. =) Das ist alles.
And yeah, Germany wasn't communist. So what.
Nazism actually denounced communism.

tyca auf Deutsch ist:
dskw(danke sehr, komm wieder) which is 'thank you very much, come again'
if you do not want the 'very much,' then omit the 's.'

With a tip of the hat to Aris Katsaris, who figured out that we all kept getting those two halves because we were separating one complete answer into two parts.

if i guessed manhattan 5 times would i get 5 points or just one...i am trying to figure out the way you scored others...and unless there is a mistake....i am just not getting it.....

sorry for the trouble...

Greg responds...

11 & 3/2. Didn't you just guess this exact same guess a few posts ago?

I can't answer your question the way you've phrased it.

But lets say one of the answers was Encino. In fact, let's say that there were two clans in Encino, but for one of them you'd need to be more specific in your answer. Like the Bank of America in Encino. If you listed Encino once, you'd get one point. IF you listed it twice (without mentioning the bank) you'd get one and a half points. One for the Encino clan and a half point for the bank clan. Does that help?

And I still don't get the Griff joke? I mean, I get that my name is aurally similar to Griff's but is that a joke?

a crack at the clan
I dont know if it is me, but from other posts, you first just added points up then said the full and halves...i have a question......lets say i said manhattan and new york...would that be one or one and a half....assuming that new york is in reference to the manhattan clan and not the labyrinth...for that matter if i said castle wyvern in scotland and it is wrong,,,would you be giving me half point, since there are living in castle wyvern in manhattan, you know xanatos's tower.Basically do you get credit for the same place twice???

ohh well if you can explain do please..

here is my guess:

1.Manhatten, USA
2.Labyrinth,USA
3.Avalon
4.Paris, France
5.Ishimura, Japan
6.Guatemala
7.London, UK
8.New Olympus
9.Loch Ness, Scotland
10.Wyvern, Scotland
11.Xanadu,China
12.Canada
13.Antarctica
14.New Camelot made by king arthur after he awoke from avalon

Greg responds...

I try not to give credit for the same place twice. But the guesses sometimes make it hard.

Since you said you were trying to come up with new contests, I have a few suggestions:

1) Ragnarok survivors list-from the Aesir to the Vanir to the Jotuns/Frost Giants to the wolves..
2) Something on the Zeroth pre-gargoyle Race
3) The Space-Spawn self-name contest(ok, this is a stupid idea)
4) Unseen World Tour eps(all the ideas that never made it)
5) The Why Did Demona Name The Clones After Los Angeles Contest
6) The names of Oberon/Titania's children

Greg responds...

1. Hmmm. Yeah, I'd have to work that out first. And I'm working on other things now.
2. What is this Zeroth you keep talking about? Did I say that?
3. No, I can't do that for legal reasons.
4. See #3.
5. That could be fun, I guess. Let me think about that.
6. I could do that too. Hmmm.

I've also been thinking about trying to get you guys to name the eleven leads in the newly revamped version of what was once 2158. But that one would make the clan contest seem like a piece of cake.

At any rate, I'm gonna stick with one contest at a time for now. We're closing in on the end of the Clan Contest, so I think I'll let that play out before I start a new one.
