Based on the Memo, that would leave the following as possibilities for Boss: Cinnamon, grilled, Harmony, Myst, Scubee, SmeralDina, or Witty.
Dina are you boss again?
My vote is in.

Woohoo now everyone knows it isn't me!
Always nie when that finally happens.
edit... forgot... don't trust those numbers too easily as you can change your birthday at any time. I did it last year 'cuz I was in a "Don't want to be reminded of my birthday" kind of mood.
Now the question becomes... did the boss answer honestly and 30 days/not hit yet is the correct answer to what's currently on their profile... or did the tell the truth and 30/not is what their b-day actually is. You see how this could be tricky?

I would not knowingly allow the Boss to lie.
I checked the profiles of all remaining players before I asked the question, to ensure that the Boss could safely answer honestly without narrowing the field too much.

Dina you are too funny. I had to start accusing you at some point. At least it wasn't until the second game and notice how I kept suspicion on myself.

Well... some people don't put their real birthdays on their anyways.
Internet Paranoia and whatnot... so me being paranoid is perfectly normal.
Also... depends on what you mean by "this year"... do you mean as of Jan 1, 2008?
I figure I've had my b-day for this year already and mine's in December...
I say that because it's still a LONG way off... if that makes any sense.
Cin, you're avi is a perfectly apt one... as that's what I'm doing...

Grrrrr!!!
That is all.
What would Scooby Doo?

NOTE: Myst's birthday isn't shown on her profile...
I know it hasn't happened for 2008, due to info in a private TB, thus I won't blab.
What I find interesting is that Cinn knew that and is NOT a member of that TB.
Of course, she did include herself in the list, but that could always be diversion of niceness.
Still, narrowing a field of 12 to a field of 7 isn't bad...
But seeing as my haven't solved the latest challenge rump is on the line I'm not too thrilled.
*resumes Pooh posture* Think Think Think
Edit... also you forgot to include me in that list...
My birthday is Dec 13th... oddly enough that's scubee's join date! Weird no?
Doesn't matter since Italy is my only desired destination, but thought I'd share.

I just happen to be surfing the web that day and heard a pineapple mama was having a birthday on braingle. I had no idea what braingle was but knew I just had to join!
What would Scooby Doo?

OMG... that IS weird.
And great big DUH to me... December has 31 days... that's why I wasn't on the list.
Gee can you tell I'm frazzled?
Anyone want to help a fellow 'clearly not the boss' player out?
*bats eyes* at Blue, Jones, Tan and Bapat

Pineapple, I included both Myst & Witty because neither have their b'day listed. I have no idea when it is so I can't eliminate them based on that. I haven't looked at previous info from memo's at all. If someone can eliminate others from that list feel free. All we know for sure is that it is one of those 7. Regardless of whether the info they put on their bios is true, they had to answer the question truthfully or at least I thought they did. I'm sure they would have known Giz would have looked at the bios as well as the rest of us once that question was asked and posted.
For some reason, everyone seems to think I am the boss. I have no clue what would lead anyone to suspect such a thing. I can understand dina suspecting me since we were in an alliance last game and she was the boss. Piney you seem very very suspicious at the moment. Could you be the Boss?

Yeah, there ya go... a Dec b-day who is facinated with Italy [and never been] to the point of learning Italian in her spare time... is the April, June, September, or November B-day France Loving Boss...
Anywho, don't think I'll be a bother to anyone much longer since I haven't figred the latest puzzle.
Kudos to Giz though for thinking up this awesome version of WTB... very cool ... if maddening.

Of course you would say that Witty. I don't think I'll count it until after this game is over.

Piney notes:
Thank you in respecting my privacy. I really appreciate it. You are correct that I do fit that Boss answer.
Cinnamon does look very suspicious. I cannot think of another player who enjoys Gizzer's challenges more. The Boss indicates he/she does enjoy them.
As to myself, only a couple of the answers fit me; however, the rest don't even come close. I am not a George Clooney fan or a classical music enthusiast. I would not choose Paris or the Eiffel Tower, and the person I would like to meet would have very personal significance.
I find it interesting that the Boss is interested in architechture, classical music, and reading. These interests should be able to help us identify the Boss. I have also noticed some interesting things in his/her answers regarding his/her use of English and punctuation.

I totally forgot about the Clooney bit...
I like him... particularly in the Ocean's films... I LOVE THOSE!
I'll have to search and see if anyone has ranted about him, but I doubt we're that lucky.
Though I do know of a couple brainglers that have a penchant for pirates....

To add to what Myst mentioned, I also noticed the start time of the rounds and the time when the players logged in Braingle on that day.
Myst, you are correct in that I love Giz's challenges. They are the type of challenge I absolutely love to do. But like yourself I am not a George Clooney fan. I do like Ocean's Eleven but not because of him. In my opinion the only movie he ever made that truly suits the way I see him is "O Brother Where Art Though". I am not a classical music fan either. While it is relaxing when I get a massage (Once a month) I do not listen to it any other time. As far as I'm concerned the 80's rocked as far as music goes. I agree Paris is a beautiful city, but not my first choice to visit. My dream travel experience would be a cruise of the Caribbean or The Virgin Islands. I do enjoy reading, but only get to do that when I go to bed. I am into card-making and cross stitch when I get the time. As for traveling back in time, I am not a history fan at all and probably would have said someone in my ancestry line as I have done some research in my geneology. Out of the 5 costumes listed, none would be my preference but since we would have to choose one I would have picked the elf. I think that would look hilarious on me and in the last 2 years our Halloween costumes have been funny ones. And last but not least my b'day is Sept 16, 73. So out of the 6 questions so far, 1 of them fits me.
If you ask me, those answers sound like Dina to me or even Witty. But what do I know, I never get it right in TWG so why would I get it right here.
So V_Bapat, are you saying you can possibly clear some of the others? I would assume Giz waits several hours after evreyone has logged on to start the next round, but if you have been keeping track maybe you can narrow the list.

Well, once again, we have no mandatory firings.
We will lose another player when Round 7 starts.
I am receiving very little communication any more, when once my inbox was routinely flooded. No answers provided or hints requested - that tells me that people are just giving up and waiting to be fired, and that is very unfortunate and disappointing.

Hey Now, I'm not giving up...
I'm just running out of idears!
I feel like I'm close to it... just can't touch it...
AHA! The answer must be saran wrap....

And yet... you still haven't asked for a hint.
*raises hand* Uhhh... I need a hint. I'm stuck on the challenge I'm on. I've been working on it, but just seem to be in a rut.

It seems I need to clarify the rule about hints, because the messages I have been receiving make it clear that some people do not understand.
Hints must be requested. They are not automatic. You may have received a hint without asking for one yourself, but that is only because someone else asked for it and you are the lucky beneficiary. However, if no one asks for a hint, none will be supplied for that Round.

Well then on behalf of the befuddled ones may we have a hint.

Papa randomly blurted out the following and I thought it apt...
From Orca by Steven Brust
Vlad Taltos says....
"No walk is wasted if there's an 'Ah ha' at the end of it."
