QUEUE'S EMPTY...
Here's a contest update.
The following blanks remain unfilled:

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

Aris Katsaris writes...
Thanks, Phil, though my guess is those submissions were wrong anyway.
Btw, Greg, I checked and it seems that Graymonk had indeed submitted "Sentinel" for 254 before I did, so that particular point should go to him. You probably made a mistake there because that guess was part of a *huge* list of guesses, all the rest of which were wrong.
Greg responds...
O.K. Aris, on your authority, I'll take the point away from you and give it to Graymonk.
Thanks.

My own G2198 guess:
446: universal
Greg responds...
I understood, Phil. Thanks. But since he was wrong, he may not want credit. :)
Phil writes...
(Sorry, I clicked submit too soon)
Just to be clear on my previous post, I'm not trying to steal Aris's guesses. He should get credit for them.
Greg responds...
Oh. Sorry. Anyway, their both wrong...
292 is "quiet".
293 is still unanswered.
Phil writes...
Aris posted the following guesses, but then distracted you with his suggestion for simplifying the second part of the contest so you never gave him points for it.
292: fiery
293: personality
Greg responds...
Oh. Sorry. Anyway, their both wrong...
292 is "quiet".
293 is still unanswered.

The answer to 244 really interests me and I figured I might as well throw out a guess, so here goes...
244: Megalith
(Though its probably GUARDIAN as someone guessed already)
Greg responds...
Guardian.
