Scioly Assassination 85: A Simple Test

How? It took me a while to try and convince people to become officers last game, and now you have 5 in only a day.

Congratulations, harryk! You can read! And English at that! Your hometown must be so proud! I can picture the banners now: "HARRYK: A MARTYR TO BE REMEMBERED". But, theirs no time to celebrate now! You all have a test to take!

A one-timer for you:

Grammar error/typo, on purpose? I don't think so

Am I still allowed to help on the kill clues? Because I have an idea of a target...
And I am so glad I picked a decent sassy. This game has 3 pages in 2 days. That is...WONDERFUL.

I am so disappointed in all of the officers right now for the sole fact that none of them posted "This was a triumph" when they figured out the qualifying clue.

That would have been great. Too bad I don't have that kind of wit.

As for the clue, does the pattern of letters resemble the pattern of letters in the targets name, maybe?

[foreverphysics]

Am I allowed to help, sassy?
I know the answer, please, please...

[Littleboy]

Wow. That. Was. Easy.
Yes we can help on kill clues forever.

Okay.
It's targeting tuftedtitmouse12.
Stick the clue into a One Time cipher --the one-timer thing. The key is "theirs". The words that are deciphered are "look above". Directly above the sassy's post is tufted's post.
It's targeting tufted.

I protect tuftedtitmouse12 for that reason.

Nicely done, I just got the same

I protect tuftedtitmouse12

Edit: twototwenty just beat me to it

[foreverphysics]

/facepalm
twototwenty just protected tufted. I suggest that harryk protect quadratic instead, because quadratic was the "above" person to be targeted.
