Scioly Assassination 130: Spooky Szn

[Jacobi]

I separated out the syllables:
[hide]Syllable Count|[/hide]
182*3/3/2 = 91...
Any ideas?

attention is three syllables...

[quote="Assassinator"]I am not d-x-u, how could you have thought. (11)
But you pro-tec-ted Things-2-do, so I guess you’re not at fault. (15)
I’m al-so not Why-the-long-face, I’m sor-ry to tell. (13) 
But with the kill clues, you’ve done pret-ty well. (10)

Pay more at-ten-tion to the I-D clues. (10)
A-long that line, you can find one, but not two. (11)
Roy-g-biv, I know my co-lors. (8)
As my fa-tal flaw re-lates to num-bers. (10)
Ring the bell and muf-fle the sound. (10)
Sound the a-larm and walk a-round. (8)
Ex-pect more help and clues as well. (8)

So then the "Count the syllables..." stanza is the only one whose number of syllables is a multiple of three (33).

Who should we protect???


Ok, I can't get on during lunch today, so I'm casting my protect right now.
I protect MaanMaan because (s)he is the most recent user on Jacobi's list.

[Tailsfan101]

I protect myself because the clue mentions "crime", as I do Crime Busters, and I can't think of anyone better to protect. Plus, 11 is almost 101, just without the zero.

[LittleMissNyan]

"Think science, as my last" refers to the last clue?
How does 33/2 equal 11? (I got 16.5)

Maybe hinting in post or star count? 11 "useful posts" mean you have 1 star, right? Does anyone have 11 "useful posts"? Or, what if you do the math on each line separately in that stanza? So, it'll be 9/3*2/2, 12/3*2/2, 6/3*2/2, and 6/3*2/2. That will give you 3, 4, 2, and 2. Are those numbers of any significance to anyone?

3+4+2+2 = 11..... Or what elements have atomic numbers of these if that's how that works?
When I search in the post count, the most recent for 16 is Raphel, and 17 is 5uper5tring
Not very promising

Arggh I'm bumping my proverbial head against the wall on this one. I feel like we're missing something obvious....

[pb5754]

"Think science, as my last" refers to the last clue?
How does 33/2 equal 11? (I got 16.5)

The updated clue says "divide by three, multiply by two, divide two."
Therefore, 33/3*2/2=11

I feel like we're missing something obvious....

Same...

[LittleMissNyan]

4 = Beryllium
3 = Lithium
2 = Helium
11 = Sodium

11 is definitely in this clue, anyone have something with salt?

[Assassinator]

Jacobi is now in my hands.
Your best officer, now in bands.
Forget about posting too soon,
But as promised, it’s around noon.

For you, I give an easy clue.
This person has been helping you.
Wouldn’t it be cool to be eight?
Eighty for height and twenty for weight?
My target is exactly that.
It’s an animal but not a cat.

How do you still not know?
After this and the last two, it should not be so.
Look at the entire post.
ID and kill will help the most.
Think of words at the beginning of phrase.
Expect this to help you come up with new faces.

48 hours, you shall have.
If I’m late, please do not laugh.
I’ll be watching from afar.
An unknown distance, I’ll be that twinkling star.

Well, bye guys.

Also,

Once "killed", a user may not post about the identity of the Assassinator.

Would that technically mean that I can help with kill clues, not just ID clues?

[MadCow2357]

I protect Things2do because his avatar is a spider, which has 8 legs, and a spider isn't a cat (right?).

[Tailsfan101]

I protect myself because I think MadCow2357 has the right protect, and I don't want to die, and I can't decide who I should use my second accusation on yet.
