Re: Nur Ein XVIII, Round Six: "Question Mark"

Does "competitors from a previous round" include Previous Nur Eins?

Could we respond to Merisan? Puce? Boop Boop? Manhattan Glutton? (AKA: Moss Palace, Max Bombast, Jimmy Pesto, Grumpy Mike)

EDIT: Oh yeah, what about shadow entries? e.g. Crown Shy, may we respond to that?
