74- character

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

What's the purpose of the 2198 contest? (In other words, what does one win if they get the correct answers?) Where can I find it to attempt any guesses considering that I've been wondering what it is that so many people have been posting about?

Greg responds...

1. If there is a purpose, I'd be horrified.

2. I have no idea yet. But I assure you it will be virtually worthless.

3. Where? Well, you could look at the Gargoyles 2198 Contest archive. Or am I misunderstanding your question.

Greg responds...

no.

Here's a clue. The word we're looking for is a NOUN!

Otherwise, I'd be a pretty lousy writer.

Hi, Greg,

The G2198 contest:
517 - expanded

Why is everybody giving up SO near the end?

Greg responds...

I hope no one's giving up.

But that was wrong too. Sorry. (You don't know how sorry.)
