Okay, who are you? I know that you're here. If you don't want to announce it to the world, you could just PM me.

Melinda. That's not a question.
However, that still doesn't answer the question as to who is lurking about this forum without logging in.

Sorry. If I said, then that would give it away (duh) and probably make he/she made at me.

It could be William, because he was up that late last night, and we have had conversations about what goes on in the forum before.
Most embarrassing lunch ever. I had to talk about cannibalism.
And it could be Mike, but he tends to go on earlier. That, and the writing style is all wrong for him. More differences than similarities there.
The first post by "Guest" in this thread has the same writing style as Melinda, as does the second one. Melinda's style is very similar to William's though, but their are differences. Will tends to care more about capitalization and punctuation, which would make sense given his personality.
Melinda's posts tend not to care much for capitalization, as do Jason's, but Melinda uses smiles much more often than Jason. Jason normally doesn't withhold information unless he feels that it is necessary, and sense he wouldn't consider keeping his posts anonymous, at least in this context.
Kara is the least suspected, and isn't that playful towards me, so I doubt it's her. However, given the anonymity, it is possible. I just doubt it.
Finally, The style matches Melinda's, She was on about the same time as those posts were made last night, and the content seems to be in sync with her personality.

That's some thorough deductive reasoning, Detective Miller. So, who do you think it is?

The poster was Melinda, at least the second one was.

the mysterious guest may or may not be Melinda. i guess we will just have to see what anyone else has to say on the matter, or if Melinda herself gets on and says yes or no.

Indeed, that we could.

Purposefully superfluous words? An attempt to alter one's writing style, no doubt. Lends itself to a slow, almost thoughtful feel, someone used spell checker for once and/or double checked their work. Grammar checks out, but the "I"s are still lowercase, a problem that Melinda and Mike have on this board.
However, the post was written in the third person and referred to Melinda as a seperate entity twice. Almost like overcompensation.
The possibility exists that the posts were not done by the same person, but they do have similarities in flow, except for the halting third post, which was constructed in a way that would have made the flow of the first two more appropriate.
