Place your bets
On 7 September (if not before), I will be announcing whether Mini-Me is a boy or a girl (or indeed a hermaphrodite cthulhu). Place your guesses here, and I’ll pick a winner.
I should admit there’ll almost certainly be no prize other than personal satisfaction. . . but you never know what I’ll feel like doing on the day.

I’m rather tempted to vote “indeterminate”, but that might be the lack of sleep talking.

W: I knew someone would fall into that trap.

Jolyon: So far, you’re winning. . . probably. . .

…I was going to be all clever and say that I’ll bet it’ll be indeterminate on the ultrasound, but since everyone’s done that already, I’ll guess…
CTHULHU!

Ben:Apparently some ultrasound operators can pick gender at 14 weeks – and the 20-week ultrasound goes for an hour (they check for lots of stuff). Mini-Me will have to keep his/her legs crossed for quite a while to escape this one.

While it’s tempting to say hermaphrodite cthulhu, I’m betting neither of your DNA is that whacked out. So my vote is it’s a Boy! I don’t have any particluar reason other than it was the first thought that came into my head.
Is there such a thing as a non-hermaphrodite cthulhu?

Stuart: I had a mother cthulhu as a twittertales character one time.

I’m going to guess for realsies and say “Girl”.
I’ve guessed boy (and been right) every other time, so I’m mixing it up a bit.
I also suspect they will be the re-incarnated dragon warrior the prophecies have been speaking of. So if they start breathing fire… don’t panic.
