hmmm, you just said:Greg responds...

I have three offices. One in Beverly Hills, my freelance office. One in Burbank, my Disney office. And one in my home.

I almost NEVER answer questions at home, because I almost never log on from there. I'd rather spend time with my wife and kids.

I answer at one of the other two offices whenever I have a free hour or so.

Occasionally, on vacation, if I have web access, I'll stay up late and answer after everyone else has gone to bed. Like now.

i find that very funny, cuz its 4:30 am here right now and i'm watching your answers come in! i guess i'm a true fan... or just really bored and unable to sleep...

anyway, so the Canadians are going to be kicking themselves for not getting G2198-517, huh? is that cuz Canadians are smarter than us Americans? (that goes out to Pyro X, long story...)
and number 74 is a noun, hmmmm...

ok:

74- adherants
74- companion

i think your clues made it harder to guess... hmmm, i'll be back...

74- coalition
74- offspring

did you think we'd have 74 by now? are we guessing too hard? have we even got close? are we on the right track?

2198 contest:

517: revamped
517: reworked
517: tinkered (isn't correct in the sentence grammatically, but I'm running out 8 letter past tense verbs that haven't been used yet. Besides, I like those first two. I'm hoping one is correct)

074: ethnicity
074: territory
074: integrity
I liked diversity too. I'm surprised it wasn't right.

74- supremacy
74- community
74- prevalent
74- different

c'mon Greg, can't you just change the answer and say one of these is right? can't you just give us some clues? can't you just forget about the kid and put off the Gathering for a few more centuries...?

And here is the required stab at one of the last G-2198 numbers.

517 - outdated

(It may not be right, but I can't find anyone who has suggested it before, so at least it's new.)

As for 74, could you give us a slight hint? Specifically, I'm wondering about that enigmatic 'and' just before it. If you were to expand that sentence to be more precise, would it read:

Each was strong in number and strong in 74.

or:

Each was strong in number and each was 74.

Thank you.

Hello! Love your work, especially Gargoyles. That series was inspiration to me.

On to the question, this one Gargoyles 2198 related:

We have two unguessed numbers left. However, there are several answers that I could not find with a thurough investigation of the archive: 123, 126 and 323. What were the already given answers for these three?

Also, the Galvatron guessed 436 as Empire and 438 as Technology, and you neither confirmed those answers as correct nor called them wrong/previously answered. Later attempts at 436 and 438 all met with the wrong/previously answered response, so I want to confirm that these were the correct answers.

Thank you.
