Nico,
We solved a clue! WE’RE ACTUALLY COMPETENT AT SOLVING A CLUE! It pointed to LittleMissNyan so BennyTheJett followed her around all day with a madlab sauce bottle taped to a yardstick, and since everyone else was on edge they gravitated around her as well, to the point where she just gave up on going anywhere and started building a Lego set in the middle of the frozen sweets aisle. Nothing happened until the clue deadline where we got a catholic towhee thrown at us (don’t question it you know what Walmart’s like). Now we have a yardstick-stabbed bird on the floor with vandal croaks coming out of its mouth and a decorated yellow sash around it ↓

I hope we can solve this one without hints, I'm getting the impression that you won’t find Tails and SilverBreeze in the Underworld…..

Hooray, we got one!
This looks like... something with numbers. That pattern is just a repeated .-.-.- with spaces, so when you turn the number of patterns between each slash into actual numbers, it looks like:
5 / 1// 1 / 5 // 5 / 3 // 1 / 4 // 4 / 2 // 1 / 5 // 1 / 5 // 3 / 2 // 4 / 5 // 4 / 2 // 4 / 2
Turning these into two-digit numbers makes it:
51 15 53 14 42 15 15 32 45 42 42
To me, it looks like... numbers. Codes people, does this look like a cipher or something?

Here's the sig for if it gets deleted:

I also have an accusation now....

[BennyTheJett]

I looked up the Percy Jackson Fandom subforum to see if notable people were in it.

Low and behold RayTay, MadCow, linzhiyan, and MissAmargasaurus make up a large number of the posts.

MissAmargasaurus has a purple avatar that looks kinda like . I think it's just a coincidence, but I'm just putting it out there. I'd also like to bet that one of these people is the target, seeing how RayTay and MadCow are pretty active in the assasination games.

[Torchic]

May be a long shot, but perhaps the numbers stand for parts of words from the sassy's letter? Also, does anyone think that the bird could stand for something (as in events)?

[BennyTheJett]

I'd bet the sassy is likely in ornithology, and is from the gulf coast region. That's what the last clue seemed to point to.

So now we look at all the maybe-targets/maybe-sassy and go through half the wiki finding people from the gulf coast region who are in ornithology
Also am I not getting something, bc I'm confused why "-raytay" was in the most recent sassy message

I was confused by that as well. Maybe the sassy’s someone I talk with a lot? Perhaps someone from IRC? I have a few ideas, but I’m going to wait for more ID clues before I reveal any of them.

[MadCow2357]

I was just trolling earlier btw don't waste any accuses on me. I'm too busy rn to even pay attention to this, though the style seems similar to my previous games

[Torchic]

Just throwing this out there: JoeyC is in Texas (Gulf Coast), and has ornithology. Probably should look into that more deeply, but I'm in school rn :>
