I think it's mortal_creator_13 too. I can't connect the clue with anyone else.
As for this:
Clue wrote:Oh wondrous star,
Will thou lend some light?
Come hither, angels,
And let us sing to our king.
Silent Night wrote:Wondrous star, lend thy light;
With the angels let us sing,
Alleluia to our King;
I figured that if you guys realized it was Silent Night, you could connect it to me.

Oh no! We seem to have a clue left unsolved, an identity not discovered, a question left unanswered. This breaks my heart, but it has been 48 hours, and so I must reveal the answer. The clue belonged to a lovely little cupcake named cupcakegirl. I'm afraid I must ask you to explain yourself cupcakegirl. However did this clue point to you? I must know.

Well, I suppose I'll just have to move on from this terrible, terrible tragedy and proceed to the next clue. I hope for a solved clue this time, lest my heart shatter into 100 pieces once again. Here it is, maybe having two poems in one clue will help you solve it:
Clue wrote:Charmanders are red. Squirtles are blue. if you were a pokemon, i’d choose you. your smile is stronger than that of a hyperbeam. Unlike jesse and james, we make the perfect team. Now i’ll stay by your side like pikachu and ash. i’ll love you more than a level 80 rapidash. you’re more legendary than a zapados, entei, or mew. but out of all 450 i choose you.


From Australia i started
But from there I parted
Where I traveled all over the world
Around the earth I twirled
Until I found a place
Home of the pretty queen Anne's lace
Want some?

As for cupcakegirl's clue, I'm too late to solve it :,( but I think the clue answer was to find the irregular letters in the poem (the capitalized ones, missing ones, and wrong ones) and piece them together. That would spell cupcake.
Carriage
pUt (u is missing)
Passed
Children
gossAmer (a is missing)
sKarcely (k should be c)
Eternity

So it spells CUPCAKE
:)

Then for the new clue, probably something to do with Pokemon??
Science Olympiad is cool :)

Wow I am actually really surprised no one solved that in time. Csunshine27 is correct on how to solve it however. The typos are the key. I really don't like poetry much and I am definitely not very good at writing it, so I figured I would take the lazy way out and just insert typos. I picked the poem because it was written by Emily Dickinson like the one in Nobody_'s signature, so I thought it would be cool to use one by the same author. :) ...and because that poem is one of like three we had to analyze during the poetry unit in English this year so... I think that tells you way more than you ever wanted to know about my clue ;)

As for this clue, well, I really don't know Pokemon at all, so I can't help much with the first part. As for the second part, I can tell you from being on Texas Wildflowers that Queen Anne's Lace lives in every state except Alaska and Hawaii. However, as far as I know, Wildflowers is only an event in Texas, so maybe it is just saying that the person is from Texas... although I'm not sure...

So here I solution I came up with, which really is quite pitiful.
My suspects:
-hotchocolate123 - wrote something similar in the last one
-Csunshine27 - sunshine reminds me of flowers and their from texas
-Silverheart7 - only other mention Queen Anne's Lace on the forum
-EpicFailOlympian - The Assasinator for the Pokemon themed game
I'm looking through the old sassy games to look for some more clues. I just don't want the thread to die. Lets just try something. Even if i might be random guessing.

Based on this and sicisico, I think the clue points the Csunshine27 the most...

Excellent work hotchocolate123! The clue does indeed point to Csunshine27! If you would be so kind as to provide us with a lovely explanation for your clue, I would be even more exuberant. My broken heart has been mended with the wonderful news of yet another discovered identity! It brings me such joy that I cannot even fathom waiting another second to share the next clue. It seems we have a queer elegy on our hands today. I wonder who wrote it?
Elegy wrote: Wisps of the reaches as the wind howls
A bone chilling breeze, a rugged countenance
Uncomfortable chill seeping through garments
Damp moist thick grey nimbostratus rule
With masters of deep anvils east and high above the sky
Their laughter sound in the booming of the night
It is day of dirt, ashes, smoke, dust, particulates, aerosols
Crunching of snow beneath as weariness trudges on
Now grey, color of ambivalence, do they drudge
Memories of the Sun, warm rays on the skin
Consult the Oracle at Delphi, ask the power that be
Bring back what is closest to man
The mourning of Thera has just begun
Want some?
