Who is Newsman Matt Drudge's Secret Identity?

[TXlib]

[Dookus]

1. wellll....

he DID show up just as Grovelbot was being put away. I've never seen them in the thread. Just a thought....

[Rowdyboy]

2. Matt Drudge deals in dirty things...

Underpants hold dirty things.....Hmmmm????

[theorist]

3. Skinner is "Newsman Matt Drudge"! n/t

[arwalden]

4. I Have It On Good Authority By Way Of A "Confession" In A PM

who the mastermind is.
It's nobody listed in the poll, and it's nobody that's been mentioned already.

-- Allen

[MidwestMomma]

5. Could it be nothingshocksmeanymore?

Inquiring minds want to know!

[arwalden]

34. nope

[Dookus]

6. I knew it!

It's grovelbot!

[arwalden]

35. nope... but almost as well known

[terrya]

57. Is it very close to home, Allen?

I'm very curious as to whom this is.

:-)

Terry

[SOteric]

7. I just had a feeling it wasn't any of the choices offered.

I wouldn't be surprised to learn it was none of the usual suspects. But I'm delighted to know we've so many clever folks lurking in the halls around here.

[Richardo]

20. My thoughts exactly, Allen...

...but the clues are out there.... :tinfoilhat: (cue X-Files music)

[terrya]

27. You guys are toying with the rest of us!

I don't have a clue who this might be!

:-)

Terry

[populistmom]

8. Someone who talks, and talks, and talks like that?

(yet wants to remain unknown)
I have my unfortunate suspicions. :eyes:

[TXlib]

10. Spill the beans!

[ConcernedCanuk]

9. I can't say WHO, but its someone in the Admin here - or

.
.
.

It's someone with the Admin's "blessing"

First post did not appear until yesterday,

oops , after midnight here, so MONDAY

and EVERY post says Newsman Matt Drudge (103 posts)

Doesn't matter what day, what time or what forum,

oh, and the 103 is a giveaway too, maybe it was even meant as a hint -

But Grobvelbots posts all read 1003

no not a typo
- Drudge = one Hundred and three
Grovelbot = one Thousand and three

quite the coincidence !!!

Who's surprised? :shrug:

[Shananigans]

31. Don't all posts automatically update your post number...

even if it is after the fact? For example, if I went back and looked at my first post it would say 250-something even now. Although, at the time it was post #1.

So basically, in a bit NewsmanMattDrudge's postings will all say 104, 105, or whatever he is on.

Am I correct?

[ConcernedCanuk]

48. Oooops, - yah - it looks like it - - was it ALWAYS that way ?

.
.
.

I still think it's "Administratively Orchestrated" tho -

:silly:

[Pale Blue Dot]

11. Maybe Newsman Matt Drudge should tell us!

Of course, he'd probably get it wrong....

[GOPisEvil]

12. A-Schwarzenegger.

Just a guess. :-)

[Hubert Flottz]

13. dAnn Coaltar!

Note the neck area!

[Bunny]

16. I accused him of that yesterday!

He denied being A-Schwarzenegger, but I have my doubts.

[GOPisEvil]

18. Maybe Oscar will "out" him.

:7

[Shananigans]

32. Oscar is still sleeping so

unfortunately he is not in a position to identify anyone. I will update when he wakes up.

[Newsman Matt Drudge]

14. Who am I?

Who are you?

Who are we?

Such eternal questions....

Sincerely,
Matt

[Hubert Flottz]

15. Hi Matt, heard any good stories lately?

Where did you find that hat Neanderfucks-R-Us?

[felonious thunk]

17. It's probably...

someone who hasn't posted for a couple of days.

[underpants]

19. Hitlery Clinton?

REmember that one? They lasted about 2 minutes.

[arwalden]

33. Ya THINK???

You're getting VERY VERY WARM!

-- Allen

[Richardo]

21. It would be a WORLD EXCLUSIVE if we could only find out...

No attribution needed, right, Newsman Matt Drudge?

[Newsman Matt Drudge]

24. It would be a World Exclusive, Richardo!

I have a feeling the truth is out there, somewhere. I'm far too lazy to do that sort of research myself. And frankly, if I were to admit to anything, if I had anything to admit to, I'd probably be lying anyway!

Curiously,
Matt

[underpants]

26. But without the hat what powers does he really possess?

:shrug:

[Richardo]

28. Without the hat he reverts to "Screech" from "Saved by the Bell"

See?

[underpants]

29. Hahahahha

Too funny

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

22. The Plaid Adder (nt)

[GOPisEvil]

23. I found his inspiration!

Off the record, on the QT, and very hush-hush.

25. Jimmy Olsen

Lois Lane and Clark Kent have both confirmed.

[ConcernedCanuk]

30. I tell ya - It's someone in the admin that is orchestrating this thing

.
.
.

At least I know the Matt Drudge here is reading my post

Refer to Post #9 above

I just did a recheck,

now ALL POSTS by "Matt" right back to Monday Jan 16 read 122 Posts

Who other than an admin could do that ?

:shrug:

[VelmaD]

36. Duh...Will Pitt...

we are ALL Will Pitt.

Sorry. It's traditional and somebody had to do it. :-)

[Newsman Matt Drudge]

37. I know WilliamPitt, VelmaD

And I, ma'am, am no WilliamPitt.

Salud,
Matt

[Scairp]

76. Hmmm

Those are probably the only truthful words to ever be typed on your keyboard.

[bubblesby2002]

38. Could it be Skinner?

that is all.

[arwalden]

39. HINT INSIDE:

"It would be crime if you did not look at all the evidence."

[Newsman Matt Drudge]

40. I advise you all to follow my lead

and do no research, and simply speculate. Take a lesson from Newsman Matt Drudge: facts are fluid, and research takes away from other more valuable pursuits.

That is all.

Warm Regards,
Matt

[SOteric]

41. Besides,

Robb is a dingbat.

[TXlib]

44. Maybe I'm denser than usual today...

But I'm not getting the hint.

[WilliamPitt]

42. Totally A-Schwarzenegger

It ain't me, babe.

[noonwitch]

43. He's either Gary or Ace

of the ambiguously gay duo.

[myrna minx]

45. A-Schwarzenegger. Without a doubt.

:toast:

OR our friend JC...
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=106088

[southpaw]

46. DuctapeFatwa

that's my guess

[A-Schwarzenegger]

47. is it gone be as much fun if you know?

[Newsman Matt Drudge]

49. We're both here at the same time!

Hello Governor! You are a treasure for the Golden State!

Regards,
Matt

[A-Schwarzenegger]

52. Then we can't be the same person, correct?

Deny, deny, deny.

[myrna minx]

54. She's my sister, she's my daughter. She's my sister...

;-)

[Richardo]

56. HAHAHAHAHA myrna!

I love that scene! :D :thumbsup:

"She's my sister AND my daughter, get it? Or is it too tough for you?"

[Newsman Matt Drudge]

55. Deny!

I'm pretty sure we aren't the same person, you are a muscle man and famous movie actor. I'm a scrawny dork in a dumb hat.

Best wishes,
Matt

[A-Schwarzenegger]

61. "pretty sure"?

Some denial. Anyway, I gone to flab
sitting around doing algebra on this
budget, and my hair dye is eating into
my brain, so we're probly a lot closer
than you think <nudge nudge>

[Newsman Matt Drudge]

62. Well, see the problem with being Newsman Matt Drudge

is that I can't be totally sure of anything that I say. Because most of what I say turns out to not be true. It's very confounding for me, and my visit to DU these past few days has really given me a headache with all the thinking these people are making me do.

I'd like to buy you a Sprite, A-Schwarzenegger. I'll post the required funds to your offshore accounts.

Regards,
Matt

[TXlib]

50. YES!

[myrna minx]

51. Hi A-S,

Glad to see ya. :hi:

[A-Schwarzenegger]

53. hi m&m!

[Shananigans]

58. Hey A-Schwartz!

Long time no, see! How are things? Oscar would miss you, if he ever woke up?

May the Schwartz be with you!

[A-Schwarzenegger]

60. He's in Betty Ford.

Well not Betty Ford, but her clinic.
The bulletin's around here somewhere...

[jimbo fett]

59. Can I vote for Bertha Venation? (wink-wink)

[arwalden]

63. HINT #2

"Time stood still while you waited for the Red Sea to part, Robert."

[terrya]

64. I must be the dumbest person on the planet, because I have no idea..

who this is. Even with the hints.

Terry

[arwalden]

65. None of the hints are literal. I'm playing with word variations & synonyms

and revealing phrases.

For example: Someone named Robert is also know as.... what?

I'm sorry... I guess it seems "obvious" to me since I'm the one being so mysterious. Here I thought I was being clever.
-- Allen

[Shananigans]

66. Robb

So it's Robb, the dingbat? ;)

[arwalden]

67. Okay.... That's One Interpretation, But...

Another name for Robert could also be "Bob".

-- Allen

[A-Schwarzenegger]

68. Mr.B aka BB?

[Bunny]

69. It's Dob Bole???

j/k

[arwalden]

70. There's More To The Puzzle

Don't forget the other parts of the hint... you know... the stuff about time stood still and parting the Red Sea stuff.

Just to help you along "Bob" is part of the puzzle that leads you to the user's name. It's not actually their name.

-- Allen

[TXlib]

77. OK, I admit I'm a fucking idiot

now please drop some hints that make sense...

[Roon]

71. Matt Drudge is using an avatar

and he hasn't donated...Hmmmmm.

[Roon]

72. On a closer look

it's not an avatar..DAMN

[Pithlet]

73. I think it is one of the Admins.

Probably EarlG. But, that is just a guess. I really have no idea.

[arwalden]

74. HINT #3

Here's a jazzy clue: The username of the member you seek is also the title of a song.

[Newsman Matt Drudge]

75. Finally, a clue that even I can understand!

I hope someone gets this, before I have to return to return to the slimy rock under which I live.

God Bless,
Matt

[terrya]

79. This might be WAY off base....

I picked up on the "jazzy"....

felonious thunk

No? Yes? God, you're dense, Terry?

[arwalden]

80. :-)

references to "crime" were synonymous with "felony"
Robert = Bob
Who parted the Red Sea? Moses.
"Bob Moses"
Time Stood Still is the name of a Bob Moses CD.

But we still need independend confirmation on your guess. I'm not in a position to confirm or deny or to officially remove the mask... only the great-pretender himself can do that.

I was just here to tease and make folks scratch their heads (while I "gloated" at knowing the answer to the puzzle) And it's not often that I get to be the secret-holder.

-- Allen

[terrya]

82. Check your email.

:-)

Terry

[felonious thunk]

83. Who me???

:hi:

[Shananigans]

84. I was following you until now...but I am totally lost now...

are you telling us, or just guessing? I'm confused!

[King Coal]

78. I can guarantee you that is Will Pitt.

[arwalden]

81. Hmmm... Don't Bet The Farm On It.

:-)

-- Alen

[qanda]

85. Has anybody figured this out yet?

eom

[SeanQuinn]

86. I haven't.

:(
