I already knew that, as you might have inferred from “I agree with ciphergoth’s guess” and, er, the fact that I named him in my last paragraph. (That was an oversight which I am about to correct.) Perhaps I should have been more explicit about what guess I was agreeing with.
I don’t know why the coyness, but perhaps TTWMNBN is suspected of googling for his own name every now and then. Or perhaps ciphergoth was just (semi-)respecting Eliezer’s decision not to name him.
But you haven’t really not named him. Anyone can decipher these posts with a small amount of effort. All that’s happened is that this thread has become annoying to read.

Semi-respecting.
