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?
Greg responds...
No more clues. (You still don't have it.) And yes, I thought it would be done by now.

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.
---Emambu
Greg responds...
None of the above are correct. Sorry. Keep trying.
matt writes...
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...?
Greg responds...
Here's the clue: It's a noun.
(all of the above attempts were wrong.)

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517 - outdated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.

and Kkatman
Greg responds...
517 is wrong.
As for the hint you wanted, I'm sorta against giving extra hints. But I too am tired of this contest. So, the former.

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.
Greg responds...
I'm sorry, I don't have that info available to me here in Burbank. Though I find it hard to believe it's not in the archive. I know someone (is it Vashkoda?) has a webpage dedicated to this. You might ask in the comment room.
I am fairly confident that we're down to these last two.

and as a first time poster here, I have to say thanks for answering everyone's questions and working so hard to make an awesome show!
Greg responds...
You're welcome. But you're also wrong.

Nevermind about me not finding the 2198 contest.
Here are my stabs at some 8 and 9 letter words I was guessing off the top of my head:
517-maintain
517-initiate
517-protocol
517-recycled
517-visually
517-reformed
517-separate
517-question
74-translate
74-avoidedly
74-transform
74-networked
74-macintosh (hey, why not? It's 9 letters)
74-addressed

How does that make any sense in context at all?
No.
matt writes...

Greg responds...

I mean, yes, I'm a teacher and writer, but no, that's not the answer.
