This contest is taking way too long. I doubt this'll help, but I'll give it another try.
74) alliances
518) dastardly
519) perception
Btw, can't you already declare who the winner with the most points is, or is the race really that close?
Greg responds...
Nope.
BTW, I haven't counted the points.

It's really fascinating to me which blanks turned out to be toughest to fill. I'd have never have guessed the five we have left.

Hey - do you mind if you make a verification for the clues of all the remaining blanks?
74. - 9 letters
129. - 10 letters
293. - 10 letters
446. - 9 letters
510. - 8 letters
517. - 8 letters
518. - 9 letters
519. - 10 letters
Thanks. Just in case any one of them was wrong.
Greg responds...
I don't mind. They're all correct.
Aris Katsaris writes...
There seems to have been a glitch in the last bunch of questions answered so that instead of responding to a particular question, you repeated the immediately *previous* response. Weird.
Anyway, some guesses which were 'lost' in that way.
Phil guessed:
446: universal
Greyphoenix guessed:
446: immediate
518: brilliant
519: masterplan
Greg responds...
That is weird. I have no explanation.
At any rate all of the above guesses are wrong. So I guess no harm was done.
CZ (Lachesis) writes...
Empty queue? Guess there's no harm in adding another guess or two:
293: solidarity
446: molecular
510: commands
Greg responds...
1 pt for 446.
The others are wrong.
Todd Jensen writes...
Some fresh stabs at the last few blanks in the "Gargoyles 2198" contest:
129 - undefended
293 - efficiency
Greg responds...
129 - wrong
293 - correct 1pt.
QUEUE'S EMPTY...
Here's a contest update.
The following blanks remain unfilled:
74
129
293
446
510
517
518
519
Only eight left, though it seems like people have really slowed down on guessing. The funny thing is that none of these are particularly series-specific. I never would have predicted that any of these would have been the last to go. Some of them, frankly, seem kind of obvious to me, but of course, I'm coming from a very different perspective. In hindsight, that last set of three may really be tough because there's less context.
But anyway, keep at it. I want this over with.

Hi Greg,
A While back, you mentioned that One of the reasons Xanatos essentially stopped trying to make his own Gargoyles, is that Thailog kind of Scared him. Another response showed that a lot of the thoughts, morals and ethics of Thailog were based upon what Xanatos fed him in the maturation chamber.
Is this enough to say that Thailog, is almost a reflection of Xanatos' mind/attitude? (that is, prior to his marriage and family.)
Is that why Thailog Scares him?
Thanks
Greg responds...
nope
