Scioly Assassination 87: Crossfire

[tornado guy]

Personally, I suspect twototwenty, particularly because of her reasoning for the fleet130 clue and the demosthenes idea (I still think it points to Jefferson)

Actually I originally was going to accuse twototwenty, but I changed at the last minute to harryk..

*cough*

I would say that it isn't me, but what good would that do?

Also, back the current clue, I think it might be time for that hint, sassy .

[Assassinator]

This is a kinda stupid question, but could the double agent's protect be nullified?

On the contrary, I think that's a good question..

On the contrary, I don't think that's a good question.

First, I will explain the process for random nullification of protects, in order to prevent anyone from pitching a fit and claiming the system isn't fair:
[...]
3. The generated random number therefore determines which officer's protect is nullified. (Note -- it is possible for the double agent to nullify their own protect because of this randomized process.)

Correct me if I'm wrong, sassy, but I do believe that when the sassy says "so-and-so's protect is nullified for this clue" they mean for the prior clue.

You are correct in this interpretation.

harryk is not the double agent.

Your hint (the original two persons are still the only ones necessary to solve the clue):
3. One man who created governmental alphabet soup
4. A man whose killer's brother saved his son
5. A man who was at first a failure of a British soldier, but became a hero
6. One of the initial presidents, with a family legacy of great tragedy

Because I understand the forums have been down for some time today, I will grant a 12-hour extension. The current clue now expires at noon eastern time tomorrow.

"3" is definitely FDR, I'm starting to think that these are all presidents
Also sassy is almost certainly Div C, and has taken US History

5. Washington? Because during the French and Indian War, the colonies fought with the British... (Then again, my colonial history is pretty rusty )

[5asdffdsa5]

he was like a major or something not a failure

[harryk]

"4" is Lincoln

[aim4me26]

"4" is Lincoln

I agree, and I think '3' is Roosevelt.

[tornado guy]

Okay, I'm not really getting this clue, so I'm going to protect AlphaTauri because she's all into history stuff.

[fozendog]

Is this still the same clue?
By having it at 12 EST couldn't that mean the Sassy is on the east coast?
