Scioly Assassination 103: Murder by Death

[mrburrito]

I protect myself because IdahoSciGuy is smart for not wanting to die and I don't want to die so I must be smart.

Good reasoning, one I like is: I can't fly, marshmellows can't fly, therefore I'm a marshmellow.

Transitive property ftw!

IdahoSciGuy goes to the betting booth, snacking on a raw potato on the way. He speaks with the bookie to place a bet on some sort of burrito wanting to kill him. The bookie smiles and nods, and pockets the bet money. He then travels back home and begins to clean his potato gun. He hears shouting, and turns to see mrburrito waving at him with a bag of tacos from Burrito Gong (TM). Just as his head turns, his potato gun spontaneously fires, sending a blur of starch through the space where his head was but a moment ago. As mrburrito and IdahoSciGuy discuss his near-potato-fertilizer experience, a dog jumps out of a passing ice cream truck with a 2-Liter bottle in its mouth and drenches mrburrito and his lunch in Diet Cherry Coke. The dog leaves ashamed of itself and disappointed that it didn't get to eat mrburrito. While the other officers begin protecting themselves with logic such as "If 5 is odd and 7 is odd, then 5 must equal 7;", mrburrito discovers an Accusation Potato with instructions to "mash, butter and throw" at the accusee.

Dear assassinator,

Please give a really obvious ID clue that a simpleton could figure out. Also, I'm sure that whoever you are, you are very attractive and nice. I will be your best friend if you give a nice simple ID clue that is not hidden in other clues.
Thank you this ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------much,

Your friend,
mrburrito

mrburrito, like I suggested before, make a suspect list (at least, that's what I'd do if I were in your shoes). Share it with only the folks you can trust (e.g. in 100 I didn't share ours with one of the officers because he was suspicious), and work from there. This game has been played in the summertime, and the user is at least a certain age to have written a few of the clues he or she did. To that end, without identifying the ID clues, you can make some progress right off the bat. Additionally, you can, now, go back through the topic and identify the ID clues because they should be clear in hindsight.

[IdahoSciGuy]

I would go ahead and check out each kill clue. In the kill clues, there seems to be a bit of information that is included, but doesn't really apply. for example, in the clue that targeted me, the sassy mentioned a Learjet(noted because it was capitalized, and judging by sassy's grammar so far, that may be intentional), and how the radio chatter was about "needing land", and then for some reason sassy went to Latvia, of all places. These might be the ID clue portions of each clue.

How do you describe a shadow?
Oh, but not any shadow - the most useful shadow to have been!
With greater activity than all of his kin.
No less than one, but no more than three;
a shadow, prominently displayed for all to see.
An early sping cloud brought by the cold west wind,
with purpose greater than to kill and to rend.

[mrburrito]

Hmm, Darksabre maybe. Maybe he would have rights to kill Z. He wrote the entire forum rules, so why not break a few Assassinator rules. Also, shadow and powerful, Dark for shadow, and administrator for powerful. Sabres can kill and rend. I think this may be an ID clue pointed toward Darksabre.

[IdahoSciGuy]

Wasn't DS involved in game 100?
I think that could be a very good notation there mrburrito. I dont personally see DS having this kind of style though. Its worth a protect at least, in case its a kill clue. its good to keep it guarded for a possible accusation later though.

[mrburrito]

Ok, I protect Darksabre for now, but I will accuse him if this sin't a kill clue.
