<forumuser name="Guess Who" /> Guess Who (real name Mike) joined the Sonic scene at Simon Wai's Sonic 2 Beta in December 2003, though he had been appearing at various other places under the name SupeSonic as early as 2000 (he used the name Guess Who to hide his original identity after joining SWS2B) and had been lurking since 1999. He worked as the board's "skin admin" and as a half-op in the official S2B IRC channel.
His signature avatar since first joining (SW)S2B has been a piece of CG art for Sonic Heroes[1] (at the Sonic Art Archive). Though no longer found in his avatar, it was on the Skin Admin group logo when using his Super Sonic Remix skin, which was removed in July 2008.

History
Guess Who first joined the forums of SWS2B in December of 2003, but later joined the forums of Sonic Vegemite, Sonic World, and others. After failing the forum's recently implemented Pending Approval system circa May 2004, he left (though he was offered a second chance). About one year later he suddenly returned to the scene, and has been posting since, even going as far as becoming one of the most frequent posters on the board.
Soon after the transition from SWS2B to then S2Beta, he disagreed with a decision to ban a member and requested a ban for himself. In a strange twist of fate, he was instead turned into a co-administrator, before the boards were reverted and he was banned. His ban was later lifted.
Guess Who left the community for a year in November 2007, citing boredom and disagreement with the Sonic Retro merger, only to pointlessly return in October 2008. He now visits #retro and posts on the message boards, though not in any particular frequency.
