[awkward internet moment]Tally = female.[/awkward internet moment]

Seriously. I mean, that's definitely actually her in her avatar, right? And she's OBVIOUSLY a girl in it. [/sarcasm]

[yayfulness]

I'm just going to say I knew who Tally M. was long before the rest of the writers And I'm not going to tell you how I found out, either

I knew who Tally M. was before she was Tally M.

Oh, hey. Mems when we thought yayfulness was a girl? And bob was a boy? No big deal.

[yayfulness]

Haha, yeah, that was the first thing that came to mind.

Uffish just clearly takes the crown on keeping her gender ambiguous.

[UffishThought]

Hehe.

I hadn't even revealed it when I first met Katya at a Board party. She and Melyngoch were there and trying to guess who I was, and they'd narrowed it down to Uffish or Leibniz, and I remember being a little sad because they'd figured it out and knew for sure that Uffish was a female nym.

I forgot about that! And we made you stand up because somehow we knew that Leibniz was really tall.

Pretty sure I know why


Well, that was an interesting conversation I missed. Yes, I'm female. Though, I'm surprised I was able to pass for a male. I'm curious how you concluded that, Uffish.

Pretty sure you don't =P

[Tally M.]

Fine =P I have a hypothesis why you would know. Actually, I have a few hypotheses...

It was more that I have a hard time keeping track of 'nyms for people I don't know very well personally, so I haven't been keeping mental track of gender clues. And Tally reminded me of the band Tally Hall, which is largely if not entirely male, I think. I knew that didn't mean anything, and I could be wrong, but I was too lazy to go back and try to figure it out from past posts, too tired of "werf," and I figured I had about a 50/50 chance to get it right. Now I know better.

That's better than me. I assume every new member is a girl until proven otherwise.

[yayfulness]

That's actually valid most of the time, I think.

[Giovanni Schwartz]

Hence the poll!

Pat on SNL

[Squirrel]

Well, just to be clear because i'm a newbie, I'm female.

[Giovanni Schwartz]

I thought you were the dog from Up?

[Emiliana]

Well, just to be clear because i'm a newbie, I'm female.

I thought so, but then started second-guessing myself because of this thread! Glad to know I was right all along.

[Katya]

I thought you were the dog from Up?

No, she's the squirrel from Up.

[Squirrel]

Haha! Maybe I should change my icon. My sister always says that I'm like Hammy from Over the Hedge. Hammy's also a boy, but at least it's a squirrel this time Suggestions welcome!
