<p>...most of whom were I.
or
...most of whom were myself.
or
...most of whom were me.</p>
<p>Which is correct? I am thinkin the first one.</p>
<p>First one. Could you post the rest of the sentence though?</p>
<p>Within a few months, there were fifteen contributors, most of whom were I.</p>
<p>i think there's probably a way to state that without the awkward grammar.</p>
<p>Within a few months, there were fifteen contributions, most of which were mine.</p>
<p>I need to keep the word "contributors," as it loses it's meaning in context otherwise. Any ideas?</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>Uhhhh, 'contributors' would be a noun implying multiple people. I don't know how you could be multiple people. The whole sentence doesn't sound right</p>
<p>yeah definitely an awkward way of putting it, but I think if u must, it should be me, as you are an object of the sentence not the subject (which would be "I"). I agree that the sentence doesn't quite make sense as is, regardless of that last word.</p>
<p>Well here's the thing-- In the essay, I am trying to convey the following idea: spectator's believed there was a growing body of people, while in reality, I was creating imaginary people.</p>
<p>sourpunchsk:
"it should be me, as you are an object of the sentence not the subject (which would be "I")"</p>
<p>In the phrase "most of whom were I," I is like a subject placed at the end; the verb is "were." When you answer the phone, you're supposed to say "this is she." Similarly, you say "This is I."</p>
<p>Within a few months, there were fifteen contributors, most of whom were my personae.</p>
<p>How's that?</p>
<p>yeah this is much too odd for my understanding. I dont see how I works, but whatever. In general, the adcom is not going to mark up your essay for grammatical errors. Theyre looking for personality and a sense of who you are. Its my opinion that it can be done without the complex (and confusing) construction.</p>
<p>Thanks guys; I guess it really is confusing. I will rewrite the sentence.</p>
