That seems about right. (Incidentally, on the left of that drawing, someone scrawled the name of Pele - the famous Brazilian soccer player - in Hebrew. ;)

Pele is a time-traveller!) :D

I actually now know my answer is incorrect. I know what it is for sure, now. But will wait for NBS to tell me I am wrong, rather than change my answer.

Yeah. You're the graffiti writing to the far right - the writing "pro bonus tempus apello Berta", which translates from Latin as "i'm calling Berta for a good time". This is possibly a reference to Roberta Williams, founder of Sierra On-Line. When you type "LOOK GRAFFITI", it responds "Let us say simply that it is someone's crude idea of a joke".

When you do, does the person on the other side tell you that you're nicked (a la PQ1)? ;)

Yes, and you are correct with the explanation.

You've seen me elsewhere
Come over to me
And I am not there
Was I ever truly there to see?

Since you just finished playing QfG2, here's a wild guess: are you the mirage of King Arthur in QfG2? :)

You've seen me elsewhere.....................................................................................................in Conquests of Camelot
Come over to me, and I am not there.......................................................................................he disappears when you come nearer
Was I ever truly there to see?.................................................................................................obviously not, since he's a mirage. <booming voice> OR IS HE?! </booming voice> ;)

Shortest one yet.

I made it easy because I am feeling very, very under the weather. So I was hoping this would go fairly quickly.

Your turn, sir.

Ouch! :( I hope you feel better soon, Tawm.

I'm recovering from a cold, so I might need to have to think about the next one. *thinks* OK.

I am weirdly-shaped
but won't make you fart;
Like Superman (without a cape)
I am a piece of art.


Guess away :)
